| Portal Year | Yalaini Epothi | Event |

| AE 1 | Empyrean
Scholars are not certain what event marked the beginning of this historical epoch, or why it is called “Golden.” It is believed that the Empyrean, when formalizing their calendar in the reign of Alaidain, calculated backwards to an event known in their legends.[1]
| |
| Falatacot
The Falatacot exist on a continent that Geraine IV later states is located beyond the western sea.[4] | ||
| Dericost, Falatacot, Haebrous, Yalain
The Falatacot are driven to Killiakta by Yalain, Haebrous, and Dericost. It is on Killiata where they first hear the pulse of the Blood of the World; where they cease to be wanderers, and become the Keepers of Creation; where they become the blessed servants of the Wheel of All Things.[5] | ||
| Falatacot
The Falatacot diverge into two branches: the Dark Falatacot, dealing in the power of undeath and corruption in service to the Old Ones; and the Light Falatacot, working to protect what they consider to be worshipful spirits - the Deru Trees.[6] | ||
| Old Ones, Shadow
Kemeroi overpower the Old Ones.[7] | ||
| Dericost, Falatacot
Some Falatacot flee from Killiakta to Dericost after Darkness and cold put their gods to sleep.[8] | ||
| The Great Cooling of the World. |
