For every world there lies a parallel one, an almost perfect reflection of the other with a few or less modifications. But not always. Such are the rare occurrences where the hands of fate and destiny have other plans, thus are born worlds where it is more of a polar opposite of its supposed original with only a handful of similarities. This story is of one such world, a world that was suppose to mirror that of Azeroth. In this world, however there is no such thing as the alliance or the horde, only kingdoms ruled by Blood Elves, ancient ruins created by the mighty Orcs, vast forests watched over by the great High Elves and skies guarded by dragons. In this world, the forces of the Scourge are still at large but they are not just of the undead, but of goblins, Worgen, and any mortal with a black heart. But I needn't have to tell you all of this, for you are about to find out for yourself… from the dawning of its time…
Myth will tell you that the world of Axeroth first began as a great dragon of many colors, whom upon death the great beasts flesh became the land, his blood the seas, his final breath the wind, and with the last beat of the mighty dragons heart, life was brought to the new world. And from this new life Gods were born, birthed from the very scales of the great dragon. Born from a blue scale came Malygos the God of War and Magic, born from a red scale came Alexstrasza the Earth Mother and Goddess of Creation, born from a green scale came Yesra the Goddess of Knowledge, born from a golden scale came Nozdormu the God of Peace and Time, and finally, born from a black scale came Neltharion the God of Darkness.
Together the five Gods watched over and nourished this new world but soon began to quarrel amongst themselves. And like an explosion the quarreling became an all out war. Taking the sides of light and dark, the Gods continued to fight. The war of the Gods raged on until only two remained: the Goddess Alexstrasza and the God Neltharion. Pitted against one another in the northern part of Axeroth the two Gods fought until the bitter end. The final blow, so destructive in its power, caused the waters to part and the earth to rise up; creating an island in the northern sea. And with the death of both Gods, Blood Elves then came into existence, populating this new island that was created from the destructive powers of Alexstrasza and Neltharion. This island had then become known as Outrend.
And thus ended the Age of Gods… and began the Time of the Elves.
