Description

Planet Earth began its life by the differentiation of the elements. With fiery violence it fashioned core and crust like a celestial blacksmith, imparting its own predisposition for strife within the organisms that would eventually inhabit its primordial seas. This fundamental drive for survival and dominance over one another ushered life landward, where the battle resumed as fierce and pitiless as in the deep sea. Humanity inherited this competitive drive in order to expand and secure territory, ensure individual and group safety, and satisfy its deep-seated curiosity to learn and grow. From this was born the human tribe, the search for resources and science, and the longing for magic and myth... and the men and women that would lead them.
