Historical Timeline

= Timeline of major events = This timeline of major events attempts to lay out the most important points in the history of Iross, based on dates and information supplied by the red monks of Paldor. For detail, see years before the Stonemaker settlement and years after the Great War.

According to tradition, the known history of Iross extends back over 12,000 years.[1] However, most of the oldest historic recounts in Iross were lost after the the Great War. Everything written about the Age of Music and the Black Moon originates from stories written down by the red monks thousands of years later. The accuracy of the legends and myths that recount much of this history is openly questioned by learned scholars and the circle of wizards, among others.[2]
