Category:Timeline

The dates of the timeline are in relativity to the death of The Great Hierophant, hence being marked BH (Before Hierophant), which ends the year prior to the birth of the Hierophant, and AR (annis revelatio, meaning "the years of revelation"), which begins the year following her death.

Keep in mind that Natura by nature (haha, nature) is a world that develops a fair few times slower than ours, so progress will be very gradual.

Age of the Shroud ( - 0 AR)

 * 498 BH: A great darkness covers the lands as the deity Caol wanders the world, planting their seed somewhere hidden deep beneath the trenches of the Highlandic valleys
 * 300 BH: Caol is eventually driven back to the Sanctum of Gods by the Sorcerers of Natura, however they leave behind the fog that has engulfed the Highlands in their wake
 * 102 BH: The Farlands begin to crumble and fall apart in a catastrophe known as the Breakdown
 * 38 BH: The Great Hierophant is born
 * 0 AR: The Hierophant passes away

Age of Fertility (640 - 1004 AR)

 * 853 AR: The Court of Peace is established, and the Fey rights movement begins to take off once and for all
 * 999 AR: The God-Eater is summoned through the practices of the Blight Cultists and begins to terrorize the now Once Fertile Lands, the Court of Peace falls apart for the first time
 * 1004 AR: The sorcerers of the Shattered Lands interfere and, using the power of every spellworker in the nation, manage to place a magical ward on the Once Fertile Lands, keeping the God-Eater trapped inside along with the folk of the Fertile Lands who didn't escape

Age of the Arcane (1004 - 1986 AR)

 * 1005 AR: The elves, dwarves, humans, trolls and fey (now grouped together as the Refugees) colonize a new continent, the Arcane Lands

 * 1202 AR: An elven ambassador from the Shattered Lands is chosen as a member of the New Court of Peace, and soon begins putting laws in place that further spread the hatred and prejudice between races, such as gating off various communities and closing off travel in and out of the nation due to the previous conflict and paranoia regarding the possibility of the Blightists still being around
 * 1268 AR: The Continental War begins
 * 1269 AR: The entirety of the Court of Peace flees to the Shattered Lands, leaving the citizens of the Arcane Lands to fend for themselves

 * 1980 AR: The only city still standing in the Arcane Lands is Arc Magica, also known as the "eye of the arcane", which is protected by a near-impenetrable warding spell. The rest of the land is barren and inhospitable after centuries of warfare
