I was reading about Angels on the forgotten realms wiki today and I came across something I had never seen before.
quote:
It is unknown precisely how angels were first created. Some claim that the gods created the angels though, if they did this, it was not intentional and angels are themselves nearly as old as the first gods, having originated in the very first moments of the Astral Sea’s existence. However, whether or not the gods created the angels the latter soon served the former’s purpose, offering themselves as soldiers during the Dawn War. As a result, most today still serve gods, though not all do.[1]
Compared with gods and exarchs, angels are far more interested in the affairs of the Prime Material Plane and other planes, acting both openly and secretly as agents in the mortal world.[1]
I have a number of source books and novels and I have a deep love for aasimar, devas as well as various of celestials. All the same I have never heard of a Dawn War. Does any one know where I would find such info or if there have been any novels written about it?

| Seems to be 4e lore since the Astral Plane is named "Astral Sea". So it is most recent lore, not to be found in older source books. |
