The Renewal Cycle
Every millennium, Vindrgard undergoes a violent cycle of destruction, change, and renewal. This is instigated by the era's Nidhoggr, a force of nature and eternal law that manifests itself as a mortal dragon. The dragon, near the end of its assigned era, begins to destroy human civilization before going to a [REDACTED shadow what is this thing exactly], using its own soul as fuel. This results in the complete destruction of civilization and the Nidhoggr's death.
Rather than going to the Spirit World, {INSERT GOD OF DECAY]] collects the soul and delievers it to Saaldyr, who safekeeps it until the soul has regained its strength and the world is safe enough to allow the Nidhoggr to be reincarnated as a dragon hatchling. As some humans do survive the cataclysm, this cycle of death and rebirth has caused an inherent fear of dragons to take root in Vindrite society, despite most wanting nothing to do with humans.
The Vindrite pantheon created this cycle in order to attempt to create a perfect human civilization- barring luck, only the most resourceful or resilient humans survive the end of a cycle, thus passing on these favorable traits to their offspring. Over the cycles, society itself has evolved so that each renewal is quicker and easier than the last one.
