Time of Stillness
3510 PD and beyond
With the banishment of the Old One Ahzwaor the last catchable outer god to it’s extraplanar prison the current chapter in this continents history begun. Beside petty mortal wars this time has been relatively peaceful and trade all among Andaria has flourished. Only very few people survived the Time of Destruction from beginning to end. Especially the long lived races, who tend to recuperate slowly lost many lifes and with it lots of knowledge and history as well. The Merchant Alliance is proving to be a force to be reckoned with, just as Lixanthia, that comparatively came out the Third Age rather strong, ready to confirm its dominion.
