Thus began what the Ogres call the War in the Sky, pitting the last surviving Ogre tribes against the Skytitans. Although alarmed, the Skytitans were far from helpless, and they unleashed lightning storms and avalanches, slaying many Ogres and driving others off the mountainside to fall to their doom. Noting the growing losses amongst their herds, the Skytitans were soon made aware of this ugly new threat that had climbed the mountains to assail them. The Ogres came as a plague of locusts to the Skytitans, for they ate everything they could find, stripping the mountains of all food and slaughtering the Mammoth herds with abandon. Their arrival heralded violence of unprecedented scale in the mountaintops. In -2750 IC, hundreds of miles away from the Ancient Giant Lands, the coming of the Great Maw triggered the Big Migration of the Ogres, sending thousands of confused and starving Ogres up into the mountains in an attempt to escape the lethal attentions of their new god. Many Ogres believed that the final peaks they climbed in the Ancient Giant Lands were not mountains at all, but instead the eldest of the Skytitans, now permanently enthroned in living stone. The most ancient of that long-lived race grew to enormous sizes, yet over the great ages of their lives the Skytitans became more sedentary, until finally becoming like the mountains themselves. The further into the mountain range, not only did the mountains tower ever taller, but the Skytitans also grew larger and larger. The Skytitans lived alone in their fortress-like peaks, too solitary to ever unite under a single banner. The Skytitans rarely descended below the treeline, save only to tend their herds of cave-beasts and enormous mammoths. Hermitic by nature, the Skytitans had long ago forgotten about the other races of the world, for they were content in their reclusive realm, hidden from others by the sheer inaccessible nature of the peaks and their shrouding cover of cloud. The Skytitans had hewn vast fortresses into the mountains themselves - blunt, megalithic citadels that overlooked shimmering seas of clouds, pierced by great islands of rock on which stood other castles. The Skytitans were an ancient race, much taller (and far more intelligent) than the Giants of today.
