Timeline of Telerian History

Eldamar

All pre-Cataclysm history is difficult to place due to the lack of a consistent timeline and narrative among what has survived or been recovered. Researchers and historians have put together a rough approximation of known and theorized events, working with existing lore from the various, surviving elder races.

The First Elder Age (unknown length)

* Origin of The Fathach?
* Possible founding of the old Fathach kingdoms: Distira, Maeduhn, and Indurr and the spreading of Fathach influence across Teleria
	+ Fathach bones and artifacts are seen as far east as Dunevast
