Ardeth/a/The Beginning of Men

The Beginning of Men:

Not much could be said here. Men were some of the most lowly of creatures, living in caves and scraping their living off dead animals. Later they learnt to hunt and farm. Little clothing they had, and they could not speak, but communicate by grunts.

The ones the wizard Arianor lived amongst became the noblest of the first men (of which Atlantians are descendants). The sons of Aria (as they were called) learnt fast and grew tall and noble, able to wield sword and axe, bow and knife. In Arianor they lived (named after the wizard they loved.)
