    So far I have only been able to find some basic lore on the wiki page, that there was an civilization before the moons collided and almost destroyed the world and that the survives struggled for generations to rebuild, but there is nothing about what the culture is like now or any real details about the world now. Is there any sources that explain more about the world yet that I just have not found or is it still being kept a mystery at this point?

    I am trying to come up with a back story for my character and a bit of personal lore, but I want it to fit into the world and have it make sense, its also hard to get started with out a reference point. Any help would be greatly appreciated, particularly any information about the old magic if it exists yet(i understand that not much is know about the world before cataclysm and that its part of the mystery of the game, but any information will help)

    sweet thanks, Blade of the Avatar is actually on my Christmas wish list but this will be a good start, didn't know there was so much lore form it posted already.

    Definitely read BotA! Also they had a series of Story Sneak Peeks over the course of many Weekly Updates, but they were all compiled in one post here:
