. A miracle appeared at the crowning ceremony of Emperor Shunaiman, the great emperor of Elmoreden. A girl with three pairs of wings came down from the heavens surrounded by holy fire. With a clear, bright voice, she explained she was Anakim, envoy of Einhasad. She had come to the land to bring the blessing of the gods to Shunaiman, the leader of all Humans. Shunaiman announced that the worship of Einhasad was the one religion, and all others were cults. He declared holy war on all those who worshipped darkness.
Other forces refused to bow to the Emporer's might, continuing their resistance to the end. Known as the Children of Shilen, they were far more numerous and fanatical than the Emperor realized. In order to deal with this insurrection, Shunaiman performed miracles with the power of Einhasad, forming a religious army with Anakim. These warriors of steel were abetted by the grace of light, wearing giant suits of armor. They were called the Nephilim, which means army of strong angels on land.
The army of Shilen was repeatedly defeated by the overwhelming power of the Nephilim. Many devotees retreated to the sheltering embrace of Shilen, scattering throughout the land, hiding in temples hidden deep underground .
