 * Second Crown War begins. Responding to Aryvandaar's aggression, conflict grows heated once more as Ilythiir assaults any that support the northern gold elves. Orishaar, a near neighbor and major trading partner with Aryvandaar, suffers a harsh surprise attack and quickly falls.
 * Dragons burn the southern reaches of Shantel Othreier, splitting off a forest later called the Wyrmwood.
 * Tethir, kin of Keltomir slays two red dragons single-handed, saving many elves of Keltormir and Shantel Othreier. This wins the elves some respect from the dragons.


 * Clans of humans settle in the burnt sections of Keltormir, which become clearings and meadows.
