Cut Ideas

Origins of the Human Race
This idea, simply put, was that a long time ago, there were three realms - the Clouds, Earth and the Abyss. Some people from Earth were on the clouds when Earth suddenly vanished, leaving the people of earth on the clouds. They started to war with the ancestors of the People of the Clouds, but upon discovering they shared a mutual enemy, they started to work together, and eventually have kids with each other. These kids became the People of the Clouds we now know, and when earth was coincedentally recreated, their children de-evolved back into their former forms, becoming the people of earth again, humans.

Reason for Removal
I felt it was WAY too overly complex. Original as it may have been, I feel like it made something that should have been kept simple into something about as convoluted as the worst offenders of convoluted backstory and plot.
