Message: <blockquote data-quote="Rhineglade" data-source="post: 6741795" data-attributes="member: 6801931">THE TALE OF YEARSThe learned Sages of Dragonwick typically categorize the history of our world into four rather distinct eras of varying lengths.  The first two time periods known as the Age of Mythology and the Age of Fables are somewhat vague with few distinct dates if any.  This is primarily the result of lack of written records and often contradictory accounts.  The later two time periods known as the Age of Empires and the Age of Heroes include the more recent past.  They are often used by historians to place certain prominent events in a codified manner more than anything else.  Those acknowledged by most of the civilized world are: First Age, the Age of Mythology(roughly 3 million years ago)Dawn of TimeRise of the PowersTime of CreationRetreat of the GlaciersOrdering of the WorldSecond Age, the Age of Fables(roughly begins with the ordering of the world by the gods and ends with the War of Law and Chaos)Year 412  Appearance of the Humanoids and CreaturesYear 500 Discovery of MagicYear 1689  Arrival of the HumansYear 2750  Smaller civilizations appearYear 5792  War of Law and Chaos Third Age, the Age of Empires(covers the time period when the vast Draconian Empire was forming and at its peak and ends with its collapse) Fourth Age, the Age of Heroes(begins with the collapse of the Draconian Empire and the establishment of the parade of nations to our current time)YEAR1          Retreat of the Dragonborn233     Kingdom of the Mountain falls in the Whitehorns554     Dragonwick established as a minor trading post561     Caerwall established along coast of the Brightwater800     Telerians enter Pelinore854     Kingdom of Valoria established910     Empire of Hrathgar formed with the crowning of its first Emperor950     Kingdom of Pelinore established970     Kingdom of Dunwyn established.990 Kings of Pelinore begin major castle building campaign against the barbarian hordes of the north.1154   Kingdom of Meridia is united1215  First Troll War begins in Dunwyn1260  Second Troll War begins in Dunwyn, Dunwyn allies with Hrathgar1265  Volkhov Khanate is formed under the banner of its most powerful Khan1317  A still mortal Mathraxis enrolls in the College of Spellcraft at Dragonwick1337  Valkyria invades Pelinore1348  Flight of the Necromancer from Meridia1355 Troops of the Great Khan of Volkhov invade Keridwen upon the wings of dragons1356 Archmage Gloridhel helps drive the Volkhov forces from Keridwen1420 Mathraxis begins the ritual which will turn him into a lich1453  Valkyrians finally expelled from Pelinore with the aid of the Maid of Pelinore1479  Two most powerful Royal Houses of Coronar united through marriage1481  The Great Conflagration results in the virtual destruction of Golgathor.1492  Last Comorian outpost of Lampwater is defeated uniting all of Coronar under dwarf rulership1499  Elf-realm of Gwytheria closes its borders1500  Great War of the Stormlords begins, Plague arrives in the Kingdom of Rendore1501 Plague spreads outwards into the surrounding kingdoms1509 War of Ruin results in the devestation of Rhuthune and Draugmore1589  War of the Stormlords ends1618 The Border Wars begin between rival kingdoms of Meridia and Dunwyn1648 Treaty of Oldcastle ends the 30-year Border Wars between Meridia and Dunwyn1652  Padishah of Draconia crowned in Shalizan1654  Prince Leofric crowned King of Meridia1660 Current Year</blockquote>
