==="Save the Barcans!" Campaign===
 
  
In the Summer of 17 YD, a territorial dispute in [[Eregon]] led to the [[Zuma]]lands declaring war on the [[Barca]]ns. Subsequently, for reasons unlearned yet, a forged letter caused the Zuma to declare war on the [[Terran]]s as well. As this event is a debacle and not a just cause for war, all human parties involved desire peace. For this end, the Zuma require the Barcans to retrieve and offer them four unique items. Thus, all concerned nobles of Dwilight are implored to participate in the "[[Save the Barcans]]!" campaign. The quest is to find or purchase the necessary amount of unique items in time before the Zuma launch their offensive. A one thousand gold price has been set for anyone willing to sell their unique items, and donations are also welcome.

The western subcontinent was over-run by monsters in year 26 destroying the realms that had been there. This catastrophe has many names. Some call it the blighting, others the great cataclysm. It is a matter of great debate as to why this catastrophe occurred. Some say it was the act of a group of noble witches and sorcerers. Others insist it was the sins of man. Bellow are writings of those who lived through the devastation along with their accounts of what they believe were the cause.

In the Spring of 15 YD, possibly the Summer of 16 YD, the last Caerwynian city [[Via]] joins [[Asylon]] ending the Occidental War between [[Astrum]] and [[Caerwyn]]. The Great Continental War originated in a conflict in High Toprak, historically known as the Conquest of Northnastrond, between the League of Free Nations; [[Averoth]], [[Thulsoma]] and eventually Caerwyn and more (though the other members were preoccupied) and the Sanguis Astroist Brotherhood; the [[Morek Empire]], [[Corsanctum]] and [[Astrum]], and sometimes [[Summerdale]] and the [[Libero Empire]]. Details about the Great Continental War can be found in the [[Dwilight University]]'s historical project [[Dwilight University/History/The Great Continental War!|The Great Continental War!]] by the Dean of History [[Ironsides Family/Bowie|Bowie]] [[Ironsides Family|Ironsides]].

In Dwilight year 46, the continental war known as the [[/Gold Sea Conflict/]] began over the city of [[Golden Farrow]]. The regional dispute between Westgard and Tol Goldora sparked a league war between the Alliance of Free Nations and Tol Goldora, support by the Lurian Empire. This war encompassed most of the continent with key theaters of war including the Westgard/Tol Goldora front and Sol/Astrum front. The war continues to this day.

History

A short summary of important events in Dwilight's history that significantly affected a major realm or the continent. Neutrality is generally strove for. In time, older summaries are archived, and only the more current accounts are kept on this page.


Post-Invasion period

The western subcontinent was over-run by monsters in year 26 destroying the realms that had been there. This catastrophe has many names. Some call it the blighting, others the great cataclysm. It is a matter of great debate as to why this catastrophe occurred. Some say it was the act of a group of noble witches and sorcerers. Others insist it was the sins of man. Bellow are writings of those who lived through the devastation along with their accounts of what they believe were the cause.

The Betrayal of the Bloodstars and the Great Blighting

by Turin Erickson, Last true King of Iashalur, Light of The Austere Star

Southern League and allies versus Luria Nova

Soon after, her duchy of Foxwind seceded from Morek Empire and formed a new realm called Helyg Derwyddon. In the summer to follow, two more duchies broke off to form Arnor and Antiqualia. A third duchy, the First Temple (Caiyun) joined Astrum.

Current events
