The Witch of Izalith attempted to duplicate the First Flame with her Lord Soul, resulting in a catastrophic failure. She birthed the volatile Flame of Chaos, mutating herself and her daughters into the Bed of Chaos, a twisted seedbed that spawned the Demon race. Although this tragedy destroyed the underground city of Izalith, survivors like Quelana sought to understand and tame this wild fire, ultimately leading to the birth of Pyromancy.
