 So it came to pass in the last days of the age now known as The Twilight of Kingdoms a new star appeared in the heavens. Small and bright it burned and the Elves named it Philogon; meaning "bright child of Phi." Many marked its appearance and great hope was placed upon it, for it showed out as would the light of Phi herself and many took it as a sign of her return. But as the months and seasons passed it continued to grow ever larger and brighter in the sky. Its light became not one of pure white light, but one of shifting hues and colors, and a shadow fell over the children of Paldegora. For this was not something of Phi or even Sahn. But something strange and fell. it bore a sense of foreboding and dread emanated from it. It is likened to the sun shining on a summer's day, but it did not radiate warmth and life as did the sun. Its light showed upon Paldegora with only fear and apprehension and the people grew afraid. Its arrival lit the skies with fire and flame and shrieked as it fell to the ground. So violent was its impact that the seas raced away only to return and swallow whole cities. Mountains fell and valleys rose towards the heavens. Forests burned and the very ground shook and cracked and vomited forth its burning entrails and the whole of Paldegora shuddered over and over from the blow. For a thousand years, darkness covered the skies and fire did rain down upon all the surface of the world. Millions perished from all races and all parts of the world. The continents broke apart and the seas filled the void and many years passed before calm once again came to the tortured planet so that life and beauty could begin to return. Yet even in all the destruction that was brought the races did survive. Phi and Naa protected them and sheltered them and kept them for their own. Even Sahn kept his Darklings within his bosom until it was time. So it was that the people emerged and began to rebuild their world but it was a vastly different place than they had known before. To everyone's amazement, a new force also was felt. Something strange, powerful, and not known before this time. So it came to pass in the last days of the age now known as The Twilight of Kingdoms a new star appeared in the heavens.

 For at this time three sisters appeared to the Elves. And the Elves cried out in amazement and fear, for surely here were three daughters of Men who they beheld with awe and at once were both beautiful and powerful beyond all measure, surely they had come to destroy them all. The eldest and tallest of the three had flowing hair of silver and eyes set of deepest blue azure. Gentle was her speech and yet a power emanated from every word. The youngest had hair of shimmering copper and eyes as green as emeralds of the sea and laughter came within her words. The middle sister had hair of brown and gold that shimmered and changed as she moved as the leaves of the Fall and her words came as one of strength, wisdom, and determination. Yet surely the Elves cried in anguish, they have come to us this day to destroy us all. For at this time three sisters appeared to the Elves.
