The [[Living Mountain]] awoke in this Age, and a new entity, [[Urzog]], the Scourge King, formed and joined the Horde in their longstanding war against the mortal races. The [[Magma Vents]] underneath the volcano in [[Yhumara Lake]] were opened up and travel was permitted to the [[Core of the World]]. The [[Tenth Monolith]] was built in [[Kinsarmar]], and the [[The Nexus|Nexus]] that once swallowed up [[Eloweth]] and [[Nemesis]] returned and uncovered memories of the late Gods. | The [[Living Mountain]] awoke in this Age, and a new entity, [[Urzog]], the Scourge King, formed and joined the Horde in their longstanding war against the mortal races.

Urzog's Horde army gained an advantage when he successfully invaded the settlement of [[Skegdald]] near the [[Ithaqua|Ithaquan Council]]. [[Xuli]], an [[ascendari]] attached to the [[Sect of Storms]], died at the hands of a young entity who would be reborn as [[Vespasien]], the [[diabolus]], who aligned herself with the [[Sect of the Leechwood]]. | |||
The [[Mirror of Flesh]], once destroyed by the Legion, was reformed and sparked a conflict between no less than five different factions, ultimately ending with the victory of [[Oassaosh]], the Imp Lord. In that same year, the [[Diabolists]] gained new skills of [[Ritualism]] and [[Nightfall]], and a strange creature named [[Gurmi]] began to inhabit [[Lake Taigaer]] in the city of Kinsarmar, spreading filth and corruption. | |||
The Age of Mortality may have been kicked off by one of history's most significant events, the death of its Gods, but the discovery of [[leylines]] and the subsequent destruction of the Empire of Stavenn would soon rival it in terms of importance. | |||
