* [[Luria Nova]] has emerged victorious in the war against [[Wicrose]], formerly known as [[Astrum]], thus bringing an end to its lengthy history
 +
* [[D'Hara]] has increased its grip on the eastern coast of the Occidens and even recolonized [[Golden Farrow]]. An attempt to find safe farm lands on [[Dwilight/Toprak_Minor|Toprak]] proved [[Luria Nova]] a greater threat than the monsters in the west.
 +
* [[Tol Goldora]] is expanding into ancient [[Morek]] lands. In order to bolster its claim, it has become a theocracy.
 +
* [[Westgard]] has won the [[/Astrumese Succession War/]] and gained control of [[Libidizedd]].
 +
* [[Avenor]] is supported its ally [[Westgard]] in the war against [[Wicrose]] and continues their cooperation to tame the [[Dwilight/Upper_Occidens|Upper Occidens]].
 +
* [[Swordfell]] has expanded into the [[Dwilight/Divide_Mountains|Divide Mountains]] and around the [[Dwilight/Unterlands|Unterlands]]. It is also in a federation with [[Luria Nova]].

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 Dwilight year 31, Grandmistress Eviera Lanze of Morek stepped down and withdrew from her leadership position in Sanguis Astroism. 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.

Dwilight (a.k.a. West Continent) is the first complete BattleMaster world map created by the player community. It is also the first (and currently only) Serious Medieval Atmosphere game world.
