Atlantis (Ruins)

The legend of Atlantis is a popular myth of known through out the human populace of Crossworld. However the Atlantean Empire was a real civilization that was completely destroyed sometime before 11000 BC. Few records exist from this period of prehistory, and while the Atlantean language has been completely lost to time, records do exist written in ancient elvish stating that the Atlantean people were a technology and magically advanced race appearing in Crossworld around the same time as the first elves. Their civilization had become so advanced that their race attempted to create a tower artifact that had the power to collect the same spiritual energy used by the gods through mortal worship. The Atlanteans had hoped to use this power to elevate their people to godhood. However, it is believed by the elves that both the celestial and abyssal gods joined to rain ruin down upon the Atlantean people and their artifact tower in Atlantis burying both the tower and their civilization beneath the waves.
