Princess of the Phrost (the miniseries): Creation

"We did not create this world, but we did create those creatures. Together we gave birth to a race of beings as close to the gods as you or I. A race that is being murdered and enslaved, our children. Generations upon generations will be wiped out"

When the race beings created to defend and protect the earth were rewarded with enslavement and death by the very ones they were charged protecting, their creators whisked them away to protect them. In a new world all their own the creators left them but two rules to obey, the first was that they forgave the humans for their crimes against the species. The last, more a warning than a request. "Always remember that the rulers of this land and the land itself are one and the same. If you live for the light this place shall prosper, if you allow darkness to reside within your heart, darkness resides in this place. You shall find yourself right back where you started"
