In many fantasy stories, it is often revealed about halfway through or close to the end, that the world the story takes place in was actually built upon the remains of an ancient, advanced civilization (Typically Earth or the planet of ''''That place that looks like Earth, but definitely isn''''t Earth and for some reason has humans...) that got whipped out by some magical apocalypse or a pissed off god or something similar. The Old World is dead and soon forgotten, and emerging from the ashes of magical radiation and crumbling cities is a new people with magic, monsters, and your typical fantasy races.
