1490s after the Great War:

At first glance, the city does not seem to be influenced by the ongoing War of the Eclipse. The government hasn't taken an official stance yet and does not seem like it is about to.

The fight currently happening is actually a lot more insidious. It may not seem like it to strangers, but the citizens of the city experience on the daily an inside struggle, as the inns and taverns fight each others for customers, all of which under the banners of Sehanine and Pelor. All of which, except the shabby-looking Wild Goose Inn, which only a few know to be the front for the World Serpent Inn.

1492 after the Great War: -  A drunk traveler claims he saw two brass dragons, one of which was ridden by a man, fly into Shadowdale . No one from Shadowdale could corroborate this story.

It is revealed that the rider from the drunk's story was Marko the Prophet, a man who, incredibly enough, tricked the famous Elminster into helping him age his dragons rapidly, using powerful chronomancy magic. Elminster will be kept prisonner by Marko's tricks, until he is eventually freed by the Golden Company.
