We have entered the Second Age of Fastheld's History; the First Age having been defined by the raising of the Aegis. We're not going to changing the calendar or anything though, as it's purely symbolic this time. So, what just happened? Well, it was discovered back in 625 ATA (when Talus decided that he'd had enough of Fastheld and got kidnapped by an undead Dragon Avatar) that once a Kahar got beyond the Aegis, the previous afflictions that they were apparently *born* with vanished. Where once Talus Kahar had weak lungs while in Fastheld, he could breath with the best of them beyond the Aegis.
