The
Age of Enlightenment Trilogy
Although it inspired legions of fans, Ultima III also
stirred up controversy. Youthful Richard Garriott (still in his early twenties) found
himself in the midst of an imbroglio over children who were suspected of engaging in devil
worship as a result of playing the game. It was enough to make Garriott again rethink his
approach to making Ultima. He decided the Ultima series needed to be more substantial and
lasting, and with that in mind set the Age of Darkness Trilogy far behind him. Drawing on
his positive Ultima experiences, he set forth once more - this time into The Age of
Enlightenment. The medieval chaos of Sosaria gave way to a much more civilized, morally
conscious world in need of a hero. That world was Britannia, and the hero was the Avatar.
