Tales from the Dawn

[Lurina]

I want to point out that the Amourat citizens whom all these narratives revolve around, were NOT the only intelligent thinking soul filled being in the world. We have proof of this many many times through the game and greater body of lore. The Convocation, Venat and her group, and all these people whom keep being referred to as "Ancients" were only ONE group that inhabited the planet.

This is wrong. Other civilizations besides Amaurot existed, but they were comprised of the same species. We know this because we learn in The Tempest that they were also experiencing their creation magic going haywire before the phenomenon spread there.

Hell, in Elpis, it's made clear they don't even have a concept of sapient non-creations aside from themselves on multiple occasions with how they treat the player character.
