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

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.
