Important Dates in History

 

-423CYThe main body of the Suloise migrants passed through the gates of the Abbor-Alz Mountains at this time. Three minor noble houses broke off from this body, tired from a years-long trek, formed a new house, the Maure. Following clues found in ancient abandoned dwarven enclaves in the foot-hills of the Abbor-Alz Mountains these new settlers re-discovered the Delagos Caverns, a complex system of natural caves that seemed to promise a limitless supply of valuable gems.
