# Precursor Elutherians

Although there isn't much evidence of their existence, many Elutherians cling to the idea of there being an entire race of highly-advanced Elutherians that were suddenly wiped out thousands of years ago.

Around 2,000 years ago, these highly-advanced Elutherians did in fact exist.

Not much is known about the Precursors. Their language is completely different from Standard Elutherian, and not much remains of their technology, lifestyle, culture, or if they were even human. What we do know is they were extremely technologically advanced; The Ariagale Beacon in Ariagale Sanctuary is key evidence of that. They also worshipped the same Goddess current-age Elutherians do, also evidenced by the Ariagale Beacon.

Although their technology was highly advanced, they were still fairly medieval, as all of their technology was powered by magic.

They met their demise when the dreaded Cult of Valstar unleashed the [Unyielding Flame](https://bluesod.gitbook.io/soulblaze-gdd/miscellaneous-lore/precursor-elutherians/the-unyielding-flame) and caused the [7-Month Inferno](https://bluesod.gitbook.io/soulblaze-gdd/miscellaneous-lore/the-unyielding-flame#the-7-month-inferno).
