As time passed, the impurity of all things drove Aurai into imbalance. Corruption began to form at alarming rates until it could no longer be maintained. The powers that kept this evil substance at bay for so long became helpless in maintaining the balance of the world and as a result, an explosion occurred creating a new realm. One polluted by the evil essence of Corruption and the Scourge Beasts it spawned.

These ravenous brutes slaughtered indeterminately, killing many regardless of origin. The powers of the world stood tall against these monsters.
