With the gods either destroyed or gone, the dragon lords began killing each other until only one remained. They became so-called " animal gods", and continue to exist on Crystania to this day, unbeknownst to the people from the other continents of Forcelia. Once the neutral gods set foot on the continent, they discarded their bodies and took the form of animals to hide from the dragon lords. Feness led the neutral gods to a continent in the south, protected by Bruza, who used his spear to defeat many dragon lords. With the partison gods gone, some of the dragon lords turned to the neutral gods, who had gathered under Feness, the younger brother of Pharis. With Kardis' and Marfa's passing, all the gods of light and darkness were destroyed. Before the curse could spread, Marfa, the goddess of creation, used her last strength to separate the already cursed land from the continent, thereby creating Lodoss the "Accursed Island". In her final moments, Kardis, the goddess of destruction, cursed the land. A number of other gods also decided to remain neutral.Īt the end of the battle only two gods remained, Marfa of the gods of light and Kardis of the gods of darkness. Cha Za's subordinate Sumash opted to remain neutral and Bruza, a lazy god by nature, arrived too late, lost sight of his master and had no choice but to join the neutral gods. Their subordinate gods Bruza and Sumash, however, did not follow their superiors. The god of war Myrii and the god of fortune Cha Za were among the gods who sided with Pharis, and Myrii led the gods of light into battle. Both sides summoned dragon lords, fire-spewing beasts much stronger than the gods, to destroy the opposing gods. This small dispute eventually escalated and led to war. Pharis, the god of light, wished to create a world governed by the laws of light, while Phalaris, the god of darkness, envisioned a world of complete freedom. During the creation of the world, the gods divided into camps of light and darkness, and began to quarrel.
