Expanded Time Line Part II

2152 PA (Post Avatar)

After a harsh winter, a deep spring sickness sets in, killing up to one out of every 10 people. Some places are hit harder then others, the more isolated areas more removed from the epidemic. Several House heirs are lost and in Vandez a civil war erupts between the second and third brothers to see who will be the next heir of Vandez.

Rumors of dragons surface in the east, near Last Stand. No one can verify such sightings, but several Black Wizards' compounds are burned to the ground at that time.

The Emperor of Ariella sends expansion trains to the west, hoping to expand the Empire farther into the "barbarian" lands. Many poor people sign on for the promised ten acres, pair of mules, milk cow and 10 gold ducats.

The dwarves shut themselves away for most of the year, trading with no one, sending the price of gems upward as well as the price of dwarven goods.
Tomorrow: Some item of Martapa
