Earth

**Earth** is one of the primary locations where the *Tales of Arcadia* trilogy takes place.

Earth is the third planet from the sun and is located in the Solar System. Humans believe it to be the only planet to harbor life, but has been visited by alien life before and is the home to some of them.

## Description

With a radius of 3,959 miles, Earth is the fifth largest planet in the Solar System, and it's the only one known for sure to have liquid water on its surface.

## History

### Creation by the Arcane Order and purpose

The Arcane Order formed the Earth around 4.54 billion years ago with the Titans as their handmaidens, approximately one-third the age of the universe, by accretion from the solar nebula, intending for the world to be a paradise for all living beings.

Volcanic outgassing probably created the primordial atmosphere and then the ocean, but the early atmosphere contained almost no oxygen. The Earth's Moon is thought to have formed as a result of a single, large head-on collision. The impacting object probably had a mass comparable to that of Mars, and the impact probably occurred near the end of the period of giant impacts. The collision kicked into orbit some of the impactor's mantle, which then coalesced into the Moon. The impact was probably the last in the series of mergers that formed the Earth.

Billions of years later, the Order saw mankind's corruption increase in the world, and thus sought to restore balance between magic and mortal by making magickind the dominant species, but this only caused more pain, which Nari came to see, unlike Bellroc and Skrael. Eventually, Bellroc and Skrael decided to wipe their own creation from existence like a flood by releasing raw, uncontrolled magic through the breaking of the Genesis Seals, which kept the Titans from awakening and connecting with the Heartstone beneath the land which would become Arcadia Oaks, the center of the universe. It was this reason why Nari defected from the Order.

### Extranormal Activity

The first known alien to visit Earth was an unnamed Akiridion who crash-landed while being chased by some Zerons. She was attacked by Spar the Spiteful, however they soon came to an agreement when she told him that she too was sent to safeguard something. She was interrupted when she said the word primitive, what she needed to keep safe was never revealed. Spar and a group of human cavemen helped push her ship over a cliff to help it gain velocity, after which she took off.

Fialkov and Coranda traveled to Earth, where they met up with Kanjigar the Courageous and Vendel to hide it in their secret underground village, Heartstone Trollmarket.

General Morando led a coup that resulted in the king and queen losing their physical bodies and their heirs being forced to flee. While Morando consolidated his powers and began hiring bounty hunters to recover the royal life cores and capture or kill the heirs, a resistance formed with the goal of restoring House Tarron to the throne.

**Wizards/Witches**

An enemy of the Arcane Order, Merlin opposed them for a millenium. Morgana having exelling her ablities falls into the darkest form of magic. Because of this the Arcane Order seeks her to become the instegator of the War for the Surface Lands. After the battle of Killahead Bridge, Merlin encountered a defected enemy, Nari and houses her in Camelot. Morgana plots to return to continue the work of the Order. Meanwhile, Merlin in his tomb waiting for his newest creation to find him. The Order briefly accomplished their goals until the first 2 factions of the Guardians of Arcadia foil the plan.

**Trolls**

Trolls originally hail from what is now the Darklands under comand of Orlagk. They lived in peace until the trolls and humans were in constant conflict over the domination of the surface. Bloodshed corrupted the first Heartstone, causing it to rot from within, and from inside it, Gunmar was born. In the year 501 CE infighting began, instegated by Gunmar. After the death of Orlagk, Gunmar became warlord and the rest of the trolls become to rely on protection from Wizards. Gunmar unknowingly allied himself with the Arcane Order through Morgana. After centuries, the Trollhunter kills Gunmar, with Gunmar dead and his army destroyed, trolls at last live in peace with humans.

**Humans**

Originally at peace with trolls until a war orchestrated by the Arcane Order came in to play. Trolls were taken hostage or killed by King Arthur of Camelot. Gunmar fought in retaliatiion but, he decimated innocent trolls making redemption hard for both Arthur and Morgana. The Arcane Order deams the balance is lost beacuse of humanity. Centuries passed, the mantle of Trollhunter past to Jim Lake Jr tasked to protect the world and the universe from threats. With all the threats dead, Humans now live in peace.
