Days of Thunder overview

From Forgotten Realms Wiki

The Age of Thunder was pure chaos with small pieces of law compacted together.It was constantly dark and quiet except for the thunder and lightning there was nothing to be seen or heard. The small pieces of law came together, as is the nature of law. Law had life of its own, it possessed primordial races and habitats to sustain their life. The law came together like asteroids drawn to each other by gravity eventually making substantial earth to block the chaos and the primordial races came to each other on this new land of Torin. Some came to each other and tried to control the others yet some wanted to band together and protect themselves and the weak against the ones who want sole power. Yet others sought to stay away from trying to protect the weak or from gaining sole power by exploiting the weak. thus law and order came to know their place and the mortals learned much from them creating differences in morality of early races had the need to take power and the need to protect the weak started the terms "good"and "evil" in the world. The truly neutral people believed there should be a balance of the law and chaos else the world be so uniform there would no change for better or worse, while in pure chaos life cannot exist. And also they knew that no matter which side they aided, there would always be people who desire power over others, and there would always be people to liberate and protect people who just was to live good lives.[1]
