Around this time, the core gods ascended from mortal forms and instituted the first pantheon. Ashaka is thought to have been the first to ascend, followed closely by Aram, then Reamy. It is thought that Celestia took another 50-100 years to reach godhood.

War of Dragons and Giants
Military: WarA seven-century war between dragons and giants that destroyed the populations of both. It was finally brought to an end by both attrition and divine intervention, as the war killed so many across the world, not just giants and dragons, that the gods began being physically weaker because they had lost so many worshippers. Some monuments from this age still stand in the present day, most notably the walls of Stormguard.

Conquest of Reigan
Military: WarEmperor Valtarian's three-year war in which he crushed the Reigan resistance forces, headed up by King Felcourn, assisted by Eric Veldegon and Verdant Filt, all of who were killed in the aftermath, along with Yde Sylvar who refused to accept the treaty for surrender. The Conquest was marked finished after Emperor Valtarian successfully destroyed Castle Il-Orban with the help of the black dragon Raikonnen. In place of the former monarchy, High Court and Low Court were given more power, with an Arbiter left in place to ensure they do not develop ideas of rebellion. Reigan's Arbiter is Roko Ilvement, although he does not take his job too seriously.

The Battle of Red Ridge
Military: BattleThe forces of Verdant Filt thought they had successfully outflanked Emperor Valtarian army in a valley nearby Corrinth, and were in position to attack down onto the army convoy from the bordering ridge. However, Emperor Valtarian had a regiment of The Defiled bury themselves completely under the dirt on the ridge, and as soon as Filt's troops began charging down into the valley, the ground rose up behind them, and they were surrounded. The army convoy turned towards Filt's army and formed a wall of pikes, and the army was crushed between the two forces. Verdant Filt was captured at this battle, and later hanged at FILT FAMILY HOME. Some blame the Emont Sylvar, or other members of The Sylvar Family for supposedly leaking information of the attack to the emperor in return for the position of Grand Viceroy after the war.
