Sartovan Timeline

The Storyteller begins the Story of Sartova, The God's Chronicle..

Vaknevan the Wretched kills a Titan at a feast and early meeting between the two continents and people thereof. This betrayal sparks the Sartovan War.

The Giants, with the Titans lying long dead among broken thrones without meaning, break and reshape reality to kill the unkillable and entomb Avernus within itself.

The true cause of their disappearance remains a matter of debate and mystery, often tainted by biased opinions on the Sartovan War.

The Daelkyr begin to take more material to work with, and dispose of undesirable forms on Evandyr and Jhar'gorn.The Elves of Er'laria and the beings of the First Jeriec Empire ally and wage bloody wars with them.

This great upset in the energies of the Runic Script, as well as the quori's meddling, throw all the Themes in the Story in complete chaos. Convergence and Divergence days are anyone's guess, and it is even said that one day, Z was coterminous five times in one year, the Torfield divegent for a month straight, and Deia-rei equally distant for years.

The Er'larian refugees make final landing upon the Isles of Erinion, after having made failed attempts at the Isles of Kentarun. Here, they name the first the Isle d'Lacrimos, making shrines to their dead, and found their idyllic city of Erinion upon the Isle of Anima Vita.

a.k.a. The Invasions.
All over Sartova, dimensions find purchase within eachother both physically, and areas between become cosmically unsafe. Things physical might become thoughts and disappear just as quickly. Dreams become reality in other worlds. Impure things and failures and falsehoods shift and warp into minds and holy wars of angelic wars and mortal home alike.
The world finds Disaster, as all worlds overlap.

Qu'ara and the System of Esoteric Enlightenment, with the created and learned Planar Containment Subminds, weaken the barriers to the other planes and call them all into convergence. This begins the Age of Malevolent Motifs.

Supernatural fires, black winged creatures made of each viewer's personal nightmares, shadows that tear from throats, and portals to hellish realms unknown--and many more terrible calamities--destroy Erinion

The Incarnate King, despite his destruction, lives on like an earworm in the nightmares of the God-King. He rises anew, a demon lord in control of the Heart of Avernus to print new terrors on demand from the god-machine below. He destroys the Watchman's Post by turning every Jerian into a bomb and exploding their hearts with viscera shrapnel, and following by destroying the beloved Jade Pillar.   His eternal march moves north, across the Sunsglade and Western Steppes, his voice echoing across the entire world. Declaring the Sartovan War having begun again, the fate of the entire Story of Sartova to be decided this day. In subservience to the Storyteller, or a Story in the hands of the actors therein.   He is, in some ways, defeated. His great sins are defeated philosophically within the Primordial Dream of Avernus, and it is shown that Avernus' truth was not this. The Headless Lord turns to stone, an eternal statue over the Western Steppes of Jeria, and his mind is imprisoned within Avernus', and alongside one who argued for mortalkind.

a.k.a. the Siege of Golryon
A great catastrophe during the Imperial Alliance's siege of Golryon causes Arcanist factions to oust some of their most war-hungry elements and attend diplomatic council. The War of Manifest Mythopeia ends, provisionally, and a year of negotation decides how a permenant end might be achieved.   spoilers...

The government of Golryon is convicted of war crimes and a majority of those within it removed. Beginning drafts of the Arcane Congress form, as a parent of the Arcane Conservatory, which itself is purged. It is an organization that is made to resolve disputes between the Runic Houses, the states across the Bay and Jeria, and perhaps beyond. It does, however, struggle to even come together and be ratified by all member states, and it is a number of years before it has any true presence in the Bay... besides being a reason for peace.
