Expanded Timeline for After Chaos (AC) Part 44
Year 44 AC
The Grand Meeting happens this year. The meeting is much larger then it's first time, with villages, towns, and cities sending all sorts, even some from Ariella. A match is made for one Tharion Thunderhead's younger sister, Christie, (though she will not be married for a few years), to the lord of Landshire. There is much celebrating and exchanging of gifts. Tharion is crowned leader of Karoon in practice and he is given many gifts to cement ties through out Taina, since Karoon has the largest standing army in all of Taina. Much adventure can be found at the Grand Meeting and many a job can be found.

Year 43 AC
The Pilgrimage of Faiths reaches Elvenhome. Though the ancient elves will not tolerate any homage to the dark gods, they do allow small shrines to be set up at the base of their mountain home by the priests of the gods of light and neutrality. Some of the caravan remained in Landshire, but some were gathered up there as well. The wagon train is huge so bandits are an issue.
Rumors of an ancient ruin on the tip of northern Taina, north of Sundale, brings treasure hunters and historians. Bards spread the news and many groups head north in hopes of finding riches or knowledge.

Year 42 AC
The Pilgrimage of Faiths, as it becomes known, has made it to Landshire. Several shrines have been put in along the way, but the priests decide to put several temples in Karoon. There is at least one planned for each of the different shades, (Light, Neutral, Dark), of faiths, but several other faiths also plan on building temples. More workers and mercenaries, along with merchants, are called for.
The skeleton of a dragon is unearthed in northeastern Taina and scholars, mages, and treasure hunters converge. There are scuffles and problems, so guards are called for to not only protect the area from problems between people, but from the native wild life and ogres.

Year 41 AC
A pilgrimage of priests from Karoon all the way to the west coast begins this year. They hope to visit all the holy places in Taina and stop to build shrines or temples along the way. They are looking for merchants to supply them, engineers to supervise building and mercenaries to protect them. The pay will be good and the challenges many.
Ogres attack caravans passing over the Tsalagi Mountains. The call to take them down is issued. Many come to try and save the day while others come to recover the stolen goods for their own ends.

Year 36 AC
A snow fall so heavy this winter in Taina causes even the plains to the south and the coastal areas have a foot of snow. Travel and trade are at a stand still and some cities begin to starve. Anyone who can get supplies through to other places will be hailed a hero and paid handsomely. Merchant caravans try, but many of them fail and find only death.
