===During the 1st Age=== : During the First Age, the ancient kingdoms of the elves in Erethor and the dwarves in the Kaladruns were the greatest civilizations of Aryth. The heartland was home to scattered clans of nomadic halflings and gnome river folk, but much of it was untamed wilderness. : The River Eren winds through central and southern Erenland from the Sea of Pelluria all the way to the Kasmael Sea. This verdant river valley has been the homeland of the gnomes since the First Age. Their river barges sail up and down the Eren and their raft towns are scattered all along the river and the shores of the great lake the gnomes call the Goil. : The 1st Age, ''now 8,077 years ago'', begins with the coronation of Aradil. : The Gnomes continue sailing the Goil and the River Eren, but are now most often transporting orc troops and supplies for the Shadow's war effort. : The great castles and keeps of the Dorns are razed, the last survivors of the Old Kings wage a desperate guerilla war against the ultimate triumph of the Shadow. : Sarcosan nobility who do not turn to the Enemy are nearly exterminated. Only a few brave freeriders remain to oppose the minions of Izrador on the open plains. : The forces of the Night Kings - patrols of goblins and orcs roam the countryside, killing, looting and crushing any resistance. : The dwarven clanholds of the Kaladruns experience a time of great peace and achievement. Though skirmishes with the orcs continue, the dwarves' own often-contentious relations are peaceful, and they welcome the trade and culture exchange with other races. During this time mithral is first discovered and from it built keen weapons and stout armor. : Zardrix and her draconic cohorts are unable to mediate peace among the dragonkin and so they retreat to unknown lands far to the south of the Kasmael Sea. They find solace in the old ways and hoped that in time the animosity of their northern kin would wane. : The crowning of Aradil ushers in a golden era for the elven people that becomes one of the highest points in the cultural history of Aryth. : During the First Age, the legates, led by Beirial the Betrayer, marshaled their forces in the secret places of the Highhorn Mountains and desolate wastes of the Northern Marches. They explored new vistas of power granted by the returning strength of their dark god, and their ranks were swollen with those who felt the call of evil in their blighted souls and followed its siren song into the north. In the war that ended the age, Izrador’s legates wielded his divine might to terrifying effect and the lands were scorched and defiled by black magics. Yet despite his dark power, their god was defeated at the Battle of Three Kingdoms and the order was fractured, the survivors fleeing into the hinterlands to rebuild their strength. : The Order of Shadow's beginnings in the First Age at the remote monastery of Bandilrin, the Order spreads like a poisonous cloud through the lands of Eredane, in its touch was corruption and where it passed suffering and death followed. ---- ----
