| 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.<ref name="AgesOfTheEmpyrean" />

| Dericost, Falatacot, Haebrous, Yalain
The Falatacot are driven to Killiakta by Yalain, Haebrous, and Dericost.

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.<ref>2008/08 Ancient Powers - Knight Test</ref> | ||
