 * In Halruaa, the worshipers of Mystra and Azuth dominate the Council of Elders. Followers of Leira grow dissatisfied with the situation and leaving the country in skyships.


 * Leiran wizard lords of Halruaa and their followers settle on the island of Nimbral, where they are welcomed by the existing elves. The settlers become known as Nimbrans, and develop a distinct culture.


 * Qysar Amahl Shoon V's daughter falls from her horse but when an Ilmatari hermit saves her life, the Qysar declares all of Ilmater's faithful immune to persecution and harm from then on, lest the aggressor be cursed to suffer a fate one hundred times worse. This ensures the safety of Ilmater's servants in Calimshan for as long as the proclamation is remembered and sparks a centuries-long debate in the Ilmatari church on whether Amahl V should be canonized.
