The ancients constructed a school ment for the peoples of the Earth so that they too could gain the knowledge of the universe. One of these students, however, took the lessons in a different light and used his knowledge to fight back against the ancients and all of their power. He succeeded in killing one of the ancients by casting him onto the Earth's surface where he died a slow and painful death. The ancients, seeing this new development, closed down the school and altered human language into 12 different dialects based on the classes. Because of this the people couldn't share what they'd learned and the knowledge of the ancients was broken and therefore useless to the people. The ancients, knowing that that one person known simply as Rowan could still hunt them down, shook with fear. He was the only one still alive that had completed the course. They brought in their own children and tried to train them as warriors to fight Rowan but he was able to fight and kill each one that was sent after him. The ancients, mourning the loss of their beloved children, cast up a mighty wall to protect themselves and closed the connection between the higher world and Earth. The humans saw that they were now doomed without the ancients grace and goodwill and mourned for their own loss for 12 days. After the 12th day a handful of children were born and they were able to speak the old dialect. The people, seeing that they could still unite the teachings so that they could fight back against Rowan and bring the ancients back, taught them all that they had learned as teachers within the walls of the old school which had opened again upon the ancients leave. Now the children learn from their elders and pass the teachings between each other, training for the day when they can fight against Rowan and take back their world.
