When the world was emerging out of the chaos of the elemental plane a great duel began between the lords of the elements for who would be dominate in this new plane. King Boulder and Lady Flame fought for centuries each trying to land the blow that would destroy the other, where they fought molten earth fell.
The gods, when they awoke, brought order to this plane and thus formed the world as we know it. After Lady Flame retreated to other places where she could burn eternally, Lord Boulder inspected the earth and came across beautiful shining crystals. He was enthralled by their beauty, for they had the strength of the earth but the grace of fire. Using his powers he forged the first of the crystal folk and bid them to guard the flow of these most precious objects.
To this day the crystal folk are the only thing that fire and earth agree on. Earth viewing them as little sisters whom they must protect and fire seeing them as distant relatives. Of course this doesn't last long as fire is impatient and earth stubborn, but long enough to ensure that crystal folk survive in the heart of the mountain.
