Mankind in the World -- Men are one of the younger speaking races of the World. Most are of middling height and build, though some may be pygmies and others may reach great heights. Too much food makes them fat and too little rather lean and gaunt. Their hair and skin colours vary widely from milk white to midnight black. In wisdom, theirs is less than that of the elder races, Teor and Daine, though it is through the agency of Men that the deepest and most elevated philosopies have been revealed by the Creator. Of all the races, their life span is one of the shortest, being no more than two centuries; they suffer many physical illnesses, maladies and pitiable conditions, yet they have an inner strength and grace that allows them to bear up under the most wretched of conditions. Cruel and loving by turns, they evince both poverty and wealth of spiritual understanding. Some well grasp the fundamentals of life and love, while others meander hopelessly in vain search for they ken not what.
