Initially vast in scale, many early ~~Yairanians~~ were mountain-sized, communicating through vibrations that resonated through the rock. Their culture was defined by stability and patience, mirroring the geological rhythms of their homeland.

=== The Great Awakening (c. BME 60,0000) ===

As erosion and external elements gradually altered the realm, the ~~Yairanians~~ diminished in scale. Some of the eldest ~~Yairanians~~ are said to remain deep within the Citadel Mountains, preserved in their original, colossal forms.
