-After the destruction of [[settings:torandor|Torandor]], dragons retreated into a pocket dimension for safety, making a deal with mortals to return after 200 years. They were forgotten, though, and remained in stasis for 2,000 years. In 10061, four obelisks keeping the dragons' dimension active were activated, returning the dragons to the world and causing natural disasters across Jaern from the sheer amount of time magic released.+After the destruction of [[settings:torandor|Torandor]], [[lore:creatures:greatbeasts:dragons|dragons]] retreated into a pocket dimension for safety, making a deal with mortals to return after 200 years.

 The ocean level dropped 15 feet across the planet, exposing large amounts of new land, leaving many lizard cities high and dry, and making many docks useless. The volcano on Lojem also became active, leading many dwarves to move away. Dragons are now a regular sight on Jaern, though still remarkable. The ocean level dropped 15 feet across the planet, exposing large amounts of new land, leaving many lizard cities high and dry, and making many docks useless.

 A plague spreads across large portions of Jaern, with the only treatment being magical healing. Casters capable of healing are stretched thin, and the [[settings:jaern:therhine:centralia:centralia_gow|Centralia Mages' Guild]] researches healing spells usable by mages in this time. Suspicions run hot that the Mages' Guild itself may be responsible for the plague, in an effort to make money from the sick. A plague spreads across large portions of Jaern, with the only treatment being magical healing.

 Several asteroids impact Jaern, leading to massive tidal waves which kill thousands. They destroy the Superi of [[gods:ra|Ra,]] and many gods' "godships," divine vessels which they often inhabited, were destroyed. All gods, save for Orus and Rudri, were killed. This was a time of great tribulation on Jaern, and it took years for the gods to begin to return. In this time, a new aspect of T'or (devoted to the path of True Justice) was born. Several asteroids impact Jaern, leading to massive tidal waves which kill thousands.

-A war in [[settings:jaern:lojem|Lojem]] began, spurred by tight control of important routes by elven enclaves. This war would eventually end with the reign of the [[settings:jaern:lojem:rougtero|Rougtero]] Council and establishment of Rougtero as a major city. The Age of Reckoning, due to the total upheaval it brought to the fabric of Jaernian society, is considered the beginning of the Modern Age.+A war in [[settings:jaern:lojem|Lojem]] began, spurred by tight control of important routes by elven enclaves.
