From the introduction: Long ago this world was formed from the void by the efforts of a single goddess. However this goddess was not the benevolent and all loving creator god that many other worlds had, no this was the Goddess of pride, beauty, nature, and purity. Her intention in creating this world was to craft a race of perfect beings to worship her for all time. One long lived, beautiful, chaste, masters of whatever they choose to train in, and of course completely devoted to her, the elves. After she had crafted her precious children she also added other lesser races like orcs, monsters, and of course humans whose purpose in her world was to be enemies her children could easily defeat, proving their own superiority.
