  1. Great war of Naiad
    • The Aldin with seamen fought for the basin of the Great Temma river and Iris river. All ended with an agreement to divide the 2 rivers. The seaman kept the rivershed of Temma with all lakes in the thirteen-Nameless-peak. The Aldin located over the Iris. Their king – Halaris ruled in the Territory of Naiad, portraited double-tailed-mermaid on his flag.
    • Legend told, Seamen, who lived in the great Temma, used their own power to change the flow of the river bed, made Temma water always gushrapids and froth splashed white foam. White foam on Temma’s river wasnamed“breath of the Naiad”, it would sink any floating boats unless at least one human was killed as vessel.
  2. Sun dawn of gods
    • Along with the Aldin & seamen war in the north-east, according to Violaine the great priest, solstice -3000, northern stars fell all over the March river banks. Together with nothern stars, Father Sky and Mother Earth descended on earth. In that solstice night, they give birth to 2 twins : Red sun god and White sun god. After that every hundred years when lots of shooting stars fell by the March river, a child from Father Sky and Mother Earth would be born. The faceless deity of Evergreen citadel was their last one and also the only one that wasn’t born in the midsummer night full of shooting stars, instead, in a winter solstice night when everything was covered in darkness.
    • Where all the gods were born by the March river, was then renamed into Womb of Deities. After the Faceless god join nine gods, northern stars could be seen everytime, regardless any day of the year.
    • Violaine, the girl who witnessed the descent of Father Sky and Mother Earth became the first great priest. She came originally from the Mara sparse tribe living on the left side of the March river and the Moon mountain slope.
  3. 1000 years of melee.
    • Moon King: The religion that worshiped Father Sky, Mother Earth of Moon mountain spreaded from March river to Black Forest and Iris river’s downstream. King of Moon mountain and the Maran, with support from priests, proclaimed to be Moon King himself, recruited followers and conquered the entire strip of March till Iris river.
    • King of rivers: With the attack from Moon King, rulers of cities along Iris river together crowned Vulkan their king, led the Aldins to fight against the Maran.
    • Ten Kings: At the same time, ten Kings, ten great rulers of ten strongest tribes of North-east (lived around downstream of Temma river) fought each other to possess the delta between Temma’s downstream and Central land.
    • Black forest: Continuous wars made dark sorcerer and witches stronger and stronger. Black forest’s territory was the darkest place, also the district of witches and dark magic. Black forest witches took no sides, but they could become mercenaries for kings. And for that, even ten kings, both the Maran and the Aldin tributed slaves and gold to the Black forest in return of help from black magic.
    • 72 tribes: When the plain became battle field of thirteen sultans. 72 tribes on Kirily were born. They had the blessings ofNaiads, Hamadryads and Oreads on Kirily, and they all lived peacefully together.
    • Around -2289, about 700 years from the day 72 tribes were formed, prince Creosote and his new born were killed by his own father king for the love with princess Iruka from the South-Fall mountain. Revenge for her love’s death and their child. Iruka, unified horse riding tribes of the South, formed the first Kravos warrior troop and subverted the Arakawa dynasty. After expelling this tribe from Kirily, Iruka and the first Kravos men wandered from southern Fall mountain to Lost plain. Thanked to them, countless attacks from Crimson range always got cut off.
    • Beon the Conqueror and return of the elvens: When all wars in the central battleground rose to the top, Beon the Conqueror appearedin the North. Beon’s own background was mysterious, rumors said he was an abandoned son of a nomad girl, got dumped in the Snow forest. Ice bears breeded him until he is 11- 12 years old then an elven found him by chance and brought him back to the Silvern city. Here he acquired a proper education from the elvens until he was fully grown up. Beon the crossedSnow forest and came back to the human world. He was the first and only man in history that ever united nomadic tribes on Lost plain (except for the Grassland tribe), after that, he created a fierce army and conquered other lands. Beon’s horse’s hoof prints marked the defeat of ten kings one by one. In the battle of Bell field, Beon received a message stating that witches of Black forest had assassinated all his wife and children. Beon the Conqueror swore he wouldmake them pay. He killed all heirs of ten kings, then continued to fight the Maran and part of the Aldin, parallelly with another attack to Black forest. Beon was also the man who founded the central citadels, Sea citadel, Fire citadel and Moonlight citadel.
    • Main religion: On his way to attack the Maran, Beon took in their belief inFather Sky and Mother Earth. The king deeply believed in the Potion of Immortality - the missing Antique in Silvern city - and determined to retrieve it. He was the first person who made the Maran’s religion became the main religion and dedicated to search for the chosen blood. Moonlight citadel turned into a religious city, run by Maran priests and played a very crucial role in Beon’s kingdom.

    • After Beon’s death, Demon lord down South openly supported the Aldin to reoccupy their lands and start expanding. That was when, Beon’s old masters - northern elvens -aligned the dynasty he created. However none of Beon’s children survived and other heirs couldn’t be compared with the Conqueror. Battles between the Aldin and post-Beon dynasty lastd more then 100 years, led to a peace treaty in the Central citadel. Queen Tiki, a distant niece of Beon, marriedking Savvy and ended a long war time. After that followed twenty other bonds between the two noble families that opened a peaceful period of 300 years. Bloods of the Maran, Aldin and ten kings then interwined.
    • Nine Imperial citadels: In that 300 peaceful years. Lea citadel (also known as the city of songs), Spring citadel and River citadel were founded. These 3 citadels were built on ancient land of the Aldin. Storm citadel then started to take shape not so far from Kirily range. The formation of Storm citadel held several legends. Some said the Arakawa tribe built it after their exile from Kirily. Other believedthat the citadel wasconstructed with hands of men from the ocean. A few other legends assumed the citadel was the work of Naiad & Hamadryad’s children and the people from Kirily. Among the nine, Evergreen citadel was also called with the name Shadow citadel and ruled by witches of black Forest - a force that other citadels have to fear for.
    • First Wind rider: Date unknown. Some scripts indicated that Heima’s event happened in the early years when Beon vouched for the hunt for the chosen blood. Some other pages wrote that Heima’s story happened right after queen Tiki’s wedding. However the first Wind rider after Heima was discovered by the elvens in -1062.
    • Darkness of the South: -700: The first time in thousand years of history, Kravos warriors and tribes in Kirily were defeated by Crimson range’s force. Storm citadel called for help from other citadels to fight deamons of the south. Three citadels River, Lea and Spring participated.
