Age of Movement

The Age of Movement is a historical period from c. 6000 BOG to 2512 BOG where various clans began to consolidate into tribes and migrate across the world both in conquest and in search of resources. This mass-movement is what gave the era its name.

The first great tribe formed when, bereft of any belief that deities could intervene in the affairs of humans, five large clans united to form the first tribe, Maba. The Maba tribe adopted expansionist aims, moving to conquer the neighbouring settlements. This prompted the formation of other competing tribes and settling groups, and thus began the tribal wars of the Age of Movement.

The latter half of the Age of Movement is sometimes known as the Expansionist Age. This age ended with the Hebis Lorocida, in which the deities created a series of worldwide natural disasters as an expression of anger at the current course of humanity.

Expansionist Age
In the latter half of the Age, often referred to on its own as the Expansionist Age, ruthless expansionism became rampant. Tribes killed, pillaged and took prisoners without any regard for the human lives they were destroying.

The Age of Movement, and the Expansionist Age, were put to an end by the series of tectonic disasters known as the Hebis Loricoda, an expression of rage by the deities, and the Red Ring Pact that was drafted in response, as instructed by Elotalin Caelor.
