Raising of the Floating Isles & Founding of Minster

Founding

In a display of unparalleled magic that to this day remains unexplained, Northern spellcasters ripped the Ridgefell Mountains apart, and launched the shards into the sky -- thus, the city of Minster was founded.
  The Chalcedonians attributed the miracle to a new deity, Gond, a god of innovation that had "helped Chalcedon rise to the heavens." Faith in Gond has since spread rapidly across the North and it has become the state religion.
