The northern svartdverg tribe fall under the influence of a sinister god called Heimar. War breaks out between the svartdvergir and their allies and Dvergheim's majority of Ymir loyalists.

Instead of renouncing their faith, most svartdvergir choose exile, fleeing to the peripheries of the dwarven realm, or to the sparsely populated northern regions of Morak.

- 480, Rubaiyat

Rubaiyat and the nearby island of Arash are united under the rule of Akkad . A period of prosperity follows on the desert continent, with trade connecting its old cities, and new cities emerging along caravanserais and near oases.

The akkadians found the mainland city of Socora , using it as a base for swiftly conquering the nearby regions of Khali and Ochre. They then march on into the human lands inhabited by the horse-tribes of the Imric people. Following a series of ruthlessly efficient military campaigns, they establish themselves as the masters of present-day of Mercia .

- 450, Rubaiyat – Main continent

Realizing that the akkadians pose a threat to them all, the mirdain, lithwen and dwarves form an unlikely alliance with the northmen of Niflheim and several mahirim tribes. The akkadian fleet is crushed by an alliance fleet, and Akkad and Socora are placed under blockade.

Though they fight bravely, the akkadian campaign army is eventually slaughtered by the numerically superior alliance forces. Following this defeat, akkadian culture falls into a long decline, from which it is still to emerge.

- 400, The Tribelands

The shaman-warrior Amurran conquers the central Tribelands and founds the city of Red Moon . Initially, this first permanent settlement in the Tribelands is little more than a fortress surrounding the Moontower, which is sacred to the mahirim. In the following decades, however, Red Moon grows into a city.

Soon after, Amurran founds the Order of the Crescent. He charges its knights with the task of protecting the Moontower against all non-mahirim intruders.

- 300, Morak

A massive eruption of the Flaming Skull volcano is perceived as a divine signal by the orks of Morak's Gutlands region. Seeing themselves as the chosen of Azhi Dahaka, a previously obscure god of fire, they launch a particularly determined campaign of conquest, eventually uniting all the tribes of Morak under their rule.

Azhi Dahaka immediately begins influencing the orks through his priests, manipulating them into becoming more organized and civilized.

- 290, Cairn

Outside the currents of history and trade, the native aernar of Cairn have grown to be a deeply religious people. They are accomplished astronomers, who regard the night sky as an open book, from which they read the nature of their god and his works.

In 290, however, a horde of minotaurs invades Cairn, sweeping the feeble armies of the aernar before them. Slaughtering and devouring civilians, the minotaurs, who originated in the mainland wastes of Ochre, settle as conquerors in the villages of the aernar. Some speculate that pockets of aernar refugees still survive in Cairn's subterranean lands and in peripheral wildernesses.

- 213, Lyonesse

The nobles of Lyonesse rebel against the rule of the island-state's clerics, who insist on strict adherence to the tenets of the Morganic faith. Tapping into a thirst for personal freedom, the rebels swiftly gain support among broad layers of the populace.

After a series of bitter defeats, the last of the traditionalist forces are pressed into the southwestern corner of the island. At this critical moment, the goddess Morgaine visits the leader of the remaining loyalists, Duke John of Malregard, commanding him to lead his followers to new lands, where they are to build a new kingdom bathed in her light. Hastily constructing a fleet of ships, the Morganic loyalists set sail for the main continent. Glad to be rid of the fierce duke, the victorious rebels do not follow.

Duke John and his war-hardened knights land on Imric soil, on the eastern coast of Agon 's main continent. Swiftly defeating the local heirs to once-proud Chaldea , they establish the city of Sanguine .

Aur inflicts several bloody defeats on overstretched Mercian forces, before being decisively defeated at the Battle of Dalriada. With the last High King dead, the final vestiges of Imric resistance fade, and the kingdom of Mercia now controls the old Chaldean heartland.

- 200, Morak

In their first major campaign under the banner of the fire-dragon, the orks crush and enslave the svartdvergir tribes of northern Morak. For an orkish endeavor, the campaign is remarkably well-planned, and unlike all previous orkish invasions, it has direction and a defined goal.

- 120, Morak

In a series of campaigns lasting more than five years, the orkish armies utterly crush the largest goblin tribes of Morak. Countless goblins are enslaved as a result, and the remaining semi-free tribes are forced to pay regular tributes of fresh slaves to Flaming Skull.

Fuelled by the ambitious priesthood and a near-inexhaustible pool of expendable slaves, the orks of Morak embark on an ambitious program of construction. The towering city walls, royal castle and ziggurat at Flaming Skull are built, and in the following decades, similar buildings appear in large settlements throughout Morak.

- 100, The Tribelands

Reacting against the civilizing work of the priesthood at Red Moon, a growing number of mahirim clans turn away from the worship of Leen and Neith, the divinities that represent the moons of Agon. Instead, they turn to the worship of an ancient, wild and cruel god called the Moon-Beast, and renounce all the trappings of civilization.

Led by Yrrak the Vile, a king of legendary strength and initiative, the orks of Morak invade Mercia . Laying waste to the northern regions of the human kingdom, they plunder and burn their way south towards Dalriada.

United at last, the Lightbringer and the King lead their troops toward the fire-snake banners of the orkish army. After a series of fierce battles, the orkish campaign army is decisively defeated at the Battle of the Still Waters.

Desperate survivors flee towards the main continent on cramped ships.

As the Ithwen flee, Far-Loradain returns to his slumber, in new lair at the centre of the jungle continent. He has slumbered there ever since, and is the only Celestial Dragon known to reside on Agon. To this day, nobody knows why he came, or why he laid waste to the Ithwen nation.

- 52, Mirendil

The brave and beautiful Ilynna, mirdain crown princess, is killed during a bold – some say foolhardy – attempt to steal the Silver Circlet from Melek. Her intention is to return the Circlet to Myrthai, the elven god to whom it originally belonged. Today, Ilynna is a treasured culture hero of the mirdain, remembered in countless songs and stories.

- 45, Nagast

A terrible plague spreads through the lands of Agon, killing thousands of people. Unstoppable by known medicine or magic, the disease eradicates villages and decimates cities from Niflheim in the north to Akkad in the south. No cure is ever found, but in the course of the next eight years, the disease slowly fades away. Nagast is untouched by the disease, and mirdain officials claim that the disease was created by the Unseen Radiance, a group of Deathless Mages who serve Melek.

Parading Imrak's skull through the provinces, the Iron Orks eventually break the remaining vestiges of resistance.

The Ice Demon Illgarm arrives on Niflheim, and immediately begins forcing the monsters of the interior to join the growing ranks of his army. He then convinces the most powerful Northman leaders to join his cause, and begins coordinating raids against southern lands.

- 4, The Moldar plains

In a single night, a black tower rises from a wall of rock in the heart of the plains, raised by a powerful Deathless Mage called the Watcher. Shortly thereafter, he invokes powerful magic, covering the surrounding lands in thick, yellowy shadow and slowly suffocating all natural life. Fierce shadow creatures, also called forth by the Watcher, begin to stalk the plains, killing all who haven't yet fled. Within months, the Moldar plains – devoid of life – become known as the Watcher Wastes.

In the time that has passed since, the Watcher has built a network of fortresses under the Wastes, while summoning steadily more powerful shadow creatures to stalk the surface. Many have tried to put an end to this growing threat, but all have failed. Now, many fear that entire armies of shadow creatures will soon be unleashed upon Agon, conquering all in the name of the Watcher.
