Koraxian War

For many the Koraxian War is now only a distant echo of the horrors that plagued the world and shook the foundations of society across the known world. The war started when gates to the other planes, unheard of at the time, began to open up across the world. Most of the gates opened in Juratha. The nations of the world formed the Koraxian Pact to battle this invading threat.

Before the Bloodshed
Before the Koraxian War, nothing was known about the other planes. There were no dragons or elementals. Magic was a poor man's parlor trick to get by. The only true power was that of the divine. Many of the races seen today were not in existence on the material plane due to the low level of magic energies before the war. Such beings as the ifrits, the sulis, the oreads, the undines, and the sylphs, had never been seen before.

The Fall of Juratha
Juratha was unarguably hit the hardest, many of the gates that opened between this plane and the others appeared on the western front first. Juratha was not prepared for this invasion since it was a nation on the foundation of peace. Juratha fell in less than a year, but the other nations joined forces to reclaim the tie that held the world together. The Battle for Juratha lasted about 5 years and many were lost.



The End of An Era
After the war, every nation had lost something. The most notable loss was that Gozreh's Throne lost its king. After the fog of war settled, many turned to answering the question of what caused this. Scholars looked to answer the question "were they invading?". Hostility from the outsider forces seemed to be out of mixed feeligs. On a general overtone, most of the outsiders don't know why the gates opened and thought that they were being invaded. For a short while there was a council formed to make peace with the outsiders. The ties were weak, but it kept bloodshed at bay. The council eventually fell apart some 800 years ago, but by then the races were so integrated that their was no more war. The gates are still around, but can only be opened using magic.
