Here follows the account of the Year of the Drakes, in which the Light and the Shadow sparred to subject the people of Fastheld to the great Dragons of the past, and changed the fate of the realm beyond all expectations. It was the year followed the destruction of the Township of Light's Reach by the Dracolich Kas'arath, a year in which Emperor Talus Kahar was abducted from his Empire by that very same Drake of Shadow and taken far into the Wildlands beyond the Aegis.

  • Here follows the account of the Year of the Drakes, in which the Light and the Shadow sparred to subject the people of Fastheld to the great Dragons of the past, and changed the fate of the realm beyond all expectations. It was the year followed the destruction of the Township of Light's Reach by the Dracolich Kas'arath, a year in which Emperor Talus Kahar was abducted from his Empire by that very same Drake of Shadow and taken far into the Wildlands beyond the Aegis. A year in which Serath Kahar set forth to rescue his brother, and fell into shadow. In which the Imperial Council sought to save the Emperor, breaking ancient taboos to venture forth into a hostile land which neither welcomed nor wanted them. In which the outpost of Crown's Refuge was established, and then flourished. A year in which the Drake Avatar Aisha'Taria was released from her prison beneath the Citadel of Halo to do battle with the marauding Dracolich. A year in which Kalath'aria the Instrumentalist, a great Sapphire Drake, rose up to bring balance to the greater world around Fastheld. A year in which the Church of True Light fell into ashes, and then clawed back from the dust. A year in which the Fortress known as Ebonhold was cleared of Dark Wildlings, and resored to it's former glory. In which an Archmage of the Shadow, Zanorin Drakesfire rose to power. A year in which the Emperor finally returned to Fastheld. A year that saw much change, much darkness, and a surge of renewed Light. A year in which the Crimson Drake Val'sharax banished another Drake. In which Kas'arath left the realm to it's own fate. A year in which a lowly Steward became a great hero. In which much was set in place, and in which much could still yet change... 300 - The Scourge and the Raven (Synopsis) 301 - A Night in the Tavern (Synopsis) 302 - Corriden and the Crown (Synopsis) 303 - Sticks and Stones (Synopsis) 304 - I'll Fly Away (Synopsis) 305 - Some Long for the Short Death Moira Oak has been defeated by one of the shadowed living gargoyles, and flown to the base of Light's Reach, sealed within a magical force field.
