Timeline

The Ages of Lyonesse are measured by great acts, and great leaders. There are often disputes amongst the high and the low of historical and chronological accuracy.

Most knowledge before Age of Mark has been lost. Despite their best efforts, many historians have failed to preserve history from even that Age. It is ironic that many lands outside of Lyonesse contain more detailed histories than those within it. The timeline listed here is approximate, and becomes moreso the furher back in history one delves.

To their dismay, Lyonnes currently live within an age of darkness and despair: the Age of the Deluge.
