Berkai and the Fabric of the world Timeline

Arah, being the god of honor and war found himself lacking in the early years of the world, people had yet to see him. So he found an area in the mountains in which to place a people that would dedicate themselves to living in his name. They would be giants among men, they would fight with honor, they would be good people. Thus the goliath were created. The goliath found themselves in the frigid mountaintops of the north. Once there they worked to create a place for them in the mountains. They built small camps and created weapons for hunting. In doing so they discovered combat and as Arah had made them they enjoyed it and were quite good at it. They found no other to fight so they survived and waited. They waited for a many years and still no fight. Arah while looking for a group to call his own had not bothered to look to see if anything else was in the area.

Under the guidance of the elves and the dwarves the, Human kingdom identified the wisest among them and appointed them special power over the others. These would be their kings and queen. They gave these people power that was not absolute, they bound them with a council of their peers. People that would keep their ambition in check, but would allow for society to progress.

The Welcoming of Giants

In the year 525 the kingdom of the West, was attacked. The attacks were random and viscous. Not seeing a moving army or any other force the current king pushed out small bands of hunting parties, the man he put in charge of these operations was a man named, Ionas De Ro. De Ro came from a well to do family that had holding in the area of the raids. With permission De Ro left the household estate near the city to lead the hunting parties looking for the raiders.

The gnolls campaign ended in disaster for the creatures of destruction. Thus they were routed from their forward operating bases in the grasslands against the empire and pushed out to the foothills of the central mountain range. There they made contact with various powers seeking any that would empower them to seize upon the fruit of the empire and wreck chaos across the land.

De Ro while technically being emperor was still the best field general and thus stayed in the field against the gnolls. During the campaign there would be numerous attempts to kill the Emperor and some would get quite close, yet he would survive and win the war.

With the end of the gnoll campaign, Emperor De Ro returned to his city. A city that found itself under the rule of Avalon, who seemed to be holding together everything together but just barely.

With De Ro on the throne the path seemed so clear. The nobles that had once blocked expansion, out of fear of the unknown, out of greed, and power, no longer held back the Empire.

The Aasimar,were from a union between the deity Rielat and various human females. The birthed humanoids were the Aasimar, they were goodly folk who found it in themselves to seek out government service as advisors and worked heavily with the dragonborn and their lords.

The empire was inefficient, it was large and burly and straining under its own weight. The empire was reaching a breaking point when Mystaan took over. It was no ones fault simply a lesson in building. The empire had become to large without the proper infrastructure in place.
