Over a thousand years since the Shattered Wars, the world has become very much rebuilt and the dragons, although still around, seem to have relinquished control. Three lands have risen to become civilizations, the most prosperous still looked after by dragon kind but each having its own ruling government: The first a realm where things that humans would have considered fantasy have become common. Not just dragons but also elfkin and others have claimed it as a homeland, all ruled over by an unpredictable Elven king. A second land, under a human Empress, has become a prosperous one that's strikingly medieval in feel. Mostly a human population this land also controls the largest of ports and is often a stop for travellers also giving the most motley assortment of peoples to be found. Finally the third land, one that has tried to rebuild the advancements that humans once had, is a slowly rebuilding reminder of the post-apocalyptic future that humans have had to endure. Controlled by the iron fist of a General, this land ranges from the broken runes of the old world to newer buildings and some suspect hidden technologies.

The world has change from how it was. The arrival of the Dragon's caused an upheaval that tore apart the civilization humans has built. Their effect was devastating: humans did not like the idea of no longer being the superior species on the planet and the dragon's who started to become involved with humans, dealing with governments, and effecting civilization only made it worse. Finally war broke out, not just among the humans but between the dragons that had begun to manipulate them and pick favourites as well. The war was short but devastating, after just a few years the population of both peoples had been decimated ? the world left with only a couple of million people left and a handful of dragons. Those dragons that had been smart and powerful enough to survive saw this chance and began to take over little by little. Without humans even realizing it, while they were being helped they were also being manipulated. After a handful of conflicts and skirmishes the most powerful staked out their territories and started to rebuild things as they saw fit.
