Hierarch Kekropus:
Beside herself with sorrow and fury, Einhasad used the Hammer of the Stars to cast massive fireballs down the Giants' capital, Grande Perion. Within a day, the empire had for all practical purposes perished. The survivors, Giant and Kamael alike, were hunted mercilessly by Einhasad's Soldiers of Light. But the Giant who had charge of Arviterre Laboratory was able to seal the facility to hide the remaining Kamael from the goddess. That is how this island came into being. Only recently was that seal released, allowing us to re-enter the wider world...
"Do we have to oppose the gods?"
