The story of the this world:

Millions of years ago there were only three types of creatures in this world. The Lalamas, the Monkeykeys and the Triced. The world lay in perfect balance, and all the creatures got along with one another. There was never any competition for resources, and no strife among any clan. All creatures were immortal and mating was never needed.
One day the Lalamas decided they wished for life to have a beginning and an end. They transferred all of their immortality to one Lalama, who is best known as the Seer. By doing this he would always be alive and could correct them if time caused them to forget.
The Monkeykeys and Triced shunned the Lalamas for this decision. However, with time the Monkekeys missed the Lalamas and returned to their side. Over time they too became mortal and lost their extended life.
The Triced Queen and King were torn. They missed their dear friends, and they longed for the ability to mate like the Lalamas and Monkeykeys could now do. So they visited the Seer in their quest for an answer.
After hearing the Seer's words, the Queen came to the conclusion that it was better to stay immortal and live as they always had. Yet the King decided it would be better to live with the other races, and reproduce as they now could. The clans were split over the King and Queen's decision.
War broke out between the Triced, until finally, the Seer used his powers to separate them.
The Queen, and the clans who believed in her ideas, were sent to the sea. They grew gills, and their size expanded to better suit their new habitat.
Meanwhile the King, and the clans who followed his ideals, took to the air on wings filled with incredible power.

The Seer was happy for his people, but now stood as the gate keeper to war.

Years have pasted, and few remember what occurred that day. The Queen and King will never forget what it's like to be a Triced...
