History of Aerlad

Deep in the chasms of the Scarred Jungle an expedition of Tamorian crystal experts uncover a gigantic crystal. After excavation they discover a much smaller crystal within the giant crystal. They speculate that this crystal could be The Crystal that unlocks more powerful magics that will help their society become better than anything that had ever existed.

Family of Arturia reaches the location Timurantia revealed to them.
The first pole is hammered into the ground, marking the founding of Arturia.

Dormon, former Arethian city, falls to the Orcish horde from the north. The Orcs later settle in the ruins and rename it Dormok

The family of Coven, rulers of Covencrown declare war on the kingdom of Azag as a response to the unsanctioned expansion of Dwarven settlements on the south side of the mountains. The Kingdom of Azag had founded the settlement of Azek on the southwest side of the mountain range. Coven correctly saw this as an attempt to circumvent the duties that Dwarves paid to Covencrown for selling goods to the Daerelos Confederacy.
Ellekris Coven sent the majority of his troops to Azek while he defended Covencrown from an approaching Dwarven army. His defense was succesful and he set out to join his main army. The armies of Covencrown at Azek had an overwhelming superiority in numbers. Azek was turned to ruin and its inhabitants were slaughtered before Ellekris was able to catch up.
Ellekris opened an offensive campaign and drove the Dwarves back as far as what is now known as the Pass of Azag. He believed that any further offensive action would be unjust given their reason for war, Azek, was dealt with. He believed that with several thousands of Dwarves temporarily displaced, it was now up to the Dwarves to request a diplomatic resolution.
The Dwarves remained silent for seasons, aside from the occasional skirmish. Over a year after the war began, the Dwarves of Azag with aid of their subterranean kin, had mined the walls of Covencrown and flooded the city in what was known as the Darkest Night.
The events that followed ended the war resulting in Azek being rebuilt as the Mines of Doliak, Covencrown being renamed Covenhold, and the family of Coven abdicating as a ruling party of the greater Daerelos Confederacy.

The lands around Molik and Varsh experience strange phenomena which were later revealed to come from a Feyburst. People became whimsical and extravagant causing the cities and towns to fall into some form of controlled disorder. On the 48th of Bloom groups of people started disappearing or changing. Two days later the disappearances stopped. Many strange creatures had come to the region, including several families of surprisingly civilized goblins.

Aeons since the Drow were driven under ground a few of their descendants are chosen to change the lands at the surface. Like a spider that has outgrown its hardened shell, they too have out grown the rocky embrace of the Depths. They shed their earthy skin and emerge with a power that is pretty neat. With darkness in their souls, their curse... their gift, that which was imposed on them... they bring in the herd and feast on the lambs.
