📜 Timeline of the Rookery Isles

In the earliest days of the Rookery Isles, magic flowed abundantly, and dragons filled the skies. The legendary hero, Aelinor Mudae, forged the first bond with dragons, founding the noble House Mudae. Settling in the Dragonspine Mountains, this family established the sacred tradition of dragon bonding. Young Mudae heirs ventured into the wild, forming lifelong partnerships with these mighty creatures, ensuring safety and prosperity for their people. Dragons became revered guardians of the Isles, securing generations of peace and balance.

From their stronghold at Dragonspine Peak, House Mudae rose to unprecedented power. Their unmatched skill with dragons and mastery of magic brought stability, wealth, and cultural growth. Alliances formed across the Isles, fostering trade and cultural exchanges. This prosperous era saw the Isles flourish, earning House Mudae respect throughout the known world. Yet quietly, over the years, pride began to take hold within the house, setting the stage for troubles to come.

Ambition and arrogance eventually consumed House Mudae under Rhaenor Mudae. Turning from protectors to tyrants, Rhaenor and his enforcers subjugated the Isles, forcing dragons into unnatural practices and violently silencing dissent. Alliances fractured, and war became inevitable.

Two figures, Queen Ashley "Ashember" Love and King Trystane Love, emerged as leaders prophesied to restore balance. Supported by the Archangel Cedric Gabriel, they united the noble houses against Rhaenor. The Great War tore across the Isles, culminating in a decisive battle at Dragonspine Peak. The tyrant fell, and House Mudae was scattered, leaving the Isles forever changed.

With the war's end, Ashember and Trystane Love welcomed survivors into their new home in Suncoast. Known as House Sunspear, their reign began an era of healing and rebirth. Suncoast grew into a prosperous capital, famed for vibrant culture, trade, and stability. House Sunflare, an elite order sworn to protect the realm, arose to ensure peace endured. Under Sunspear's rule, the Isles entered a new golden age of unity, renewal, and harmony.

Today, Suncoast stands strong as the heart of the Rookery Isles. Its cities bustle with trade and culture, guided wisely by Queen Ashley and King Trystane. Archangel Cedric Gabriel remains the vigilant guardian, defending the Isles from old and new threats alike. Across the Isles, regions thrive Thaloria's fertile lands, Azura's scholarly towers, Valoria's powerful navy all adding strength and diversity to the realm.

Challenges remain, calling adventurers from all corners to explore mysteries, forge alliances, and face lurking dangers. Through wisdom, unity, and courage, the Rookery Isles continues to flourish, ever prepared to meet whatever the future holds.
