The city was prosperous for many years and was the birthplace of [[Yaksha]] and [[Avya]] - prophets of [[Shallah|Peace]] and [[Illuminas|Light]] - as well as [[Kalika Aisling]], prophetess of [[Aesir]], the God of War. A great temple to Avasyu was built here by the city's early leaders. | ||
When the city of [[Stavenn]] was founded in the year 500 AH, it existed as a bitter rival to the more peaceful citizens of Caanae. A young man named Czevak grew up at this time and was perhaps influenced strongly by the teachings of Stavenn's patron, the God of War.

A young man named Czevak grew up at this time and was perhaps influenced strongly by the teachings of Stavenn's patron, the God of War. He swiftly rose through the ranks of the military of Stavenn and became its General, waging war against the people of Caanae. The [[Generation War]] was fought over the course of several decades until the Elder [[Nathariel]] met Czevak in battle on the plain of [[Mertashi Plains|Mertashi]] and defeated him. | ||
In the time following the end of the Generation War, many influential leaders, scientists, and artists would make Caanae their home and led it through a long period of prosperity. [[Zangrilla Sylvia]] would found the [[Academia Herbalis]] during this time, and the Temple of Avasyu was greatly enhanced by the newly-mastered architectural practices of the city's artisans. | |||
By the year 775 AH, Caanae was such a beacon of inspiration to the rest of the world that no one thought it suspicious when a group of Stavennites traveled to the Academia Sylvalis. | |||
