The Dragonblood Rebellion

The Immortal Uprising, approximately 2000 years before the imprisonment of Malnaar, during an era when dragons reigned supreme over vast territories and mortals lived under their oppressive rule.
Elves, seeking to liberate themselves and other mortals from the tyranny of dragons, turned to ancient magic. They performed a forbidden ritual that involved drinking dragon blood, which granted them immortality and unparalleled power. With their newfound strength, these immortal elves led a rebellion against both the dragons and demons. The conflict divided the dragonkind; some dragons allied with the mortals in hopes of ending the bloodshed, while others sided with the demons to maintain their dominance. This resulted in a brutal two-front war that reshaped alliances and territories across the world.
The Dragonblood Rebellion marked a pivotal moment in history, setting a precedent for mortal defiance against seemingly invincible oppressors. It significantly weakened dragon supremacy and diminished demonic influence over mortal realms. The immortality gained by elves established them as powerful leaders among mortals, altering societal structures for millennia to come. This event also laid the groundwork for future conflicts and alliances between different races, fundamentally transforming the political landscape of the world.
