QuoteThe Alulim
The Alulim, or Ancients, were a much earlier civilisation that lived along the coast now occupied by the city states. They were human-like, having the same basic form, but being much taller and slimmer. Stately and bronze-skinned, they appear to be hairless according to the few engravings that still exist. These Alulim are known to have been great users of magical energies, and were capable of far more powerful spells than human Sorcerers.

It is also known that these Alulim were loners, preferring to live in solitude in the deserts, along the coast or amongst the mountain ranges. Each built an extensive house according to his or her own whims; some were impossibly tall towers, some were sprawling mansions and others were carved caves in the hills or mountains. Within their own home, these Alulim spent their days imbuing objects with magical energy, although the exact reason for this is lost in the mists of time. Rumour suggests that they were enchanted items designed to make the life of their creator easier by performing minor tasks such as heating water, although no human Sorcerer has ever managed to get an artefact to do anything.

Outside their homes, the Alulim kept early humans as both slaves and livestock. These were housed in long barns, corralled by glowing lines of energy and slaughtered for food on those occasions when the ancients decided they needed to eat.

Although the Alulim built no villages, towns or cities, they did raise huge ziggurat temples in certain holy locations. There is now no record of which Gods these temples were raised to or what their ultimate purpose was, but they remain mostly intact in the wilderness, full of chambers and tunnels.

The Alulim ruled the coastlands for many millennia, although ruled is possibly not the correct term as they seemed to have no significant civilisation as such. Then, according to legend, every living Alulim vanished on the same day, their active magics failing at the same time. Their human livestock escaped their "farms" and fled to the coat, later becoming the civilisation we know today. No live Alulim has ever been seen, although mummified remains are found from time to time.
