==== Basic back story of AC ====
The following pages attempt to document various errors in continuity, and if possible, draw a reasonable conclusion on what can be considered "canon".
The basic back story of AC involves the events of the [[Olthoi]] invasion of [[Auberean]], [[Asheron Realaidain|Asheron]]'s involvement, [[The Sundering]], and the conditions which summoned [[Isparian]]s to [[Dereth]]. This story has been told many times, and there is often inconsistency with these tales.


==== Undead ====
== General ==
In early days, the back story of the existence of undead was very different from what it is now. While today undead are almost always members of the ancient Empyrean cultures of the Dericost and Falatacot, that was not always the case. The [[Zone_Bestiary#Undead|Zone Bestiary Undead Entry]] originally described them much differently. Undead were said to be the reanimated corpses of fallen Isparians, possessed by evil spirits said to be linked to [[Bael'Zharon]].

* [[Continuity/In-Game Calendar|In-Game Calendar]] (complete, needs cleanup/restructure)


During the [[The Fourth Sending of Darkness|first story arc]] this was retconned to the current Dericost origin of Undead. However, there are many early dungeons and points of interest that still suggest the undead have an Isparian/Shadow source. For example, the lore of the [[36.2S, 65.0E - Hilltop Ruins|Hilltop Ruins]] near Shoushi state that the undead there are fallen Sho warriors who fled from battle. Another example is the somewhat common pairing of Shadow and Undead in early dungeons.

==== Tanada House of Earth ====
== Auberean Timeline and Events ==
The [[Tanada House of Fire (Quest)|Tanada House of Fire]] quest involves recovering special scrolls that belonged to the houses of Air, Earth, and Water. [[Tanada Sajo]] explains that "because Aerbax succeeded in corrupting the Masters of Air, Earth, and Water, he was able to steal the scroll of each House." However, the lore of the [[Tanada House of Earth (Quest)|Tanada House of Earth]] quest implies that the House of Earth is unaffected by the recent corruption of the House of Air.
