History
of Lirynn
Lirynn’s legends can be found in the Legend
and Histories section of the website. Some tales are specific
to Lirynn. Others are told throughout Telgard.
The Elves - This legend tells how the
elvish race came into being, and how the elves first spread
across the land, before being pushed out of the way by
the other races.
History of Lirynn - A detailed record
of the major events in the history of Lirynn. It covers
the Race Wars through the present-day.
Founding of Lirynn - No one knows who
began circulating this legend through Lirynn, but it covers
the events prior to the Race War in great, if possibly
inaccurate, depth.
The Race Wars - The elves were forced
out of the lands they had roamed freely, and the losses
they incurred in the fighting nearly lead to the extinction
of the first-born.
The Bittering - This dark tale of the
events on the border between Lirynn and Mirg is just a
fanciful rumor…isn’t it?
The Scourge - The Scourge was the most
devastating event to occur in Telgard since the Race Wars.
There seems to be one version commonly told throughout
the kingdoms. When anybody dares tell it, that is.
Origins of Lifesong - Though no one can
say with certainty when the Lifesong first came into being,
here is one recorded account from a little-known scholar,
about the receiving of Faeterna’s Gift.
Monarchy to Communism - Appalled by the
bickering between the elves, one scholar devises a plan
to set his race apart from the others, by revolutionizing
the government.
The Coup - For many years now, Lirynn
had been enjoying peace and prosperity under the gentle
guidance of their emperor. The threat of goblins in the
south was ever-present, but all in all, the people were
content. Except for one man.
Trial of the Tekal - The most recent
addition to Lirynnian history, the trial of the tekal
marked the fortunately brief reign of the madman who seized
power in Lirynn. May his fate serve as a warning to all.
