Wrought by the hands of the All-Father, Humans claim to be His truest children, and the rightful rulers of the World. Through their long history, the Sons of Men have known nothing but strife and struggle. Humans are the most varied of the World's children, however, and their cleverness and adaptability ensure that Humans have survived and even thrived despite all adversity. Once the slaves of the great Elvish Empire, the Sons of Men threw off the yoke of their oppressors and have since built empires of their own. Inheritors of a world they barely understand, most other races consider the Humans the cause of the Turning, cursed with a hubris that far exceeds their wisdom. Strife remains a way of life among Men, and some believe the constant warfare that plagues their petty kingdoms will eventually lead to the destruction of our World. The truth or falsehood of these claims has never been determined, but even among Men the argument rages on.
All-Fatherの諸手によって精製されたHumanたちは，Heの最も真正な子供たちであること，ならびに，Worldの正しい支配者たちであることを主張する．かれらの長い歴史をとおして，Son of Menたちは闘争と苦闘しか知らなかった．とはいえ，HumanたちはWorldの子供たちにおいて最も多様化し，かれらの利口性および適合性は，全ての逆境にもかかわらずHumanたちを生存させ，繁茂さえも確保した．
かつて壮大なElvish Empireの奴隷たちであったSon of Menたちは，圧迫者たちの頸木を投げ捨て，その時点からかれら自身の諸帝国を建てた．かろうじて世界を理解した相続者たちであるHumanたちを，大半の他にあたる諸種族は，かれらの賢慮を遥かに超過する自信過剰で呪った，Turningの根拠であると検討する．
闘争はManたちの生活における間で残存し，いくらかは，諸petty kingdomを患わせる恒常的な戦争行為が，わたしたちがもつWorldの破壊に紆余曲折を経て導くと信じる．これらの諸主張における，真正または虚偽が確定的になるのは決してないが，Manたちの間でさえ討論が激化する．
