Also known as the unknown Peoples from Ran (Advanced Humans)
Little is actually known about the ancients to the normal people. They hide themselves watching over the primitive races. They are against the Fey whom they have been at war for more than 100,000 years. Almost all languages derive from an ancient language called the Ran. This points to a time when all humans were the same people. This often conflicts with the Animal Hegemony which derive their origin from Eva who created all life. This secret cult is made up of a secret society who pledge to seek out the secrets of the past and discover ancient artifacts that prove their theories.
