History tells us the First Age began when the giant Zaramoth smote the last of his kin the Utgards, sealing his grip over the magics of Aranna for a thousand years and shifting the stars across the heavens. Zaramoth shepherded that age of relative peace with an iron hand; rebellions were not tolerated, men, elves, and dwarves prospered beneath the shadow of absolute justice. Even the Agallans in the far East, destined to live a life of peace, declined to challenge Zaramoth's command of the continent of Aranna despite their distaste for his cold morality.
