The Coinlords of The Estarian Sanctuary launch an amphibious assault on The Timocracy of Chanard, after years of tension between the two human nations. Chanari bishops had endlessly decried the reckless experimentation of the Estarians, and coinlords claimed that Chanard was brainwashing their workforce into seeking a life of simplicity over progress. It was only a matter of time before the ideological differences of these two nations manifested in war, but the involvement of Ushal, Speydom, and more caused this conflict to scale into epic proportions. Many other world-shaking events happened during this time, such as the rise of the Godhunter and the failed Elemental Pact between Sharynnuur and Ethax. These events are documented here as well.

The events on this timeline are listed from most recent to least recent.
