Countless other Aes Sedai, Warders, Asha’man, soldiers and civilians
1 FA - Elayne gives birth to two children, a daughter and a son, Moranna and Gawain Trakand. There is much rejoicing in both Andor and Cairhien.
Aviendha also quietly gives birth to four children, two sons and two daughters, Alarch and Janduin, Padra and Seana. All of them are gifted with the innate instinct for their channeling abilities.
Fortuona gives birth to her first child, Suorine Kaini Jini Paendrag, ensuring the line of succession for the Seanchan in the Westlands.
Upon her capture, Moghedien stealthily swallowed her cour'souvra before it could be discovered. She was collared as a damane by Shanan and taken back to Ebou Dar. The pain caused by channeling so close to her cour'souvra is debilitating and causes her to pass out quickly whenever she is forced to channel. The Seanchan believe it to be a wilder block, but when it cannot be broken, they begin to think her damaged in some way and consider her useless and unimportant.
The Children of the Light officially move their stronghold to Mayene, rebuilding their order under the leadership of Lord Captain Commander Galadedrid Damodred.
2 FA – Logain Ablar moves the Black Tower to the Caralain Grass north of Andor and west of Tar Valon, establishing the nation of Caralain.
Moghedien is found by Liandrin, now a da'covale in the Tarasin Palace after Suroth was exposed as a Darkfriend. Liandrin wisely chose to seek the Forsaken’s help rather than gloat and Moghedien agreed to unravel the shield if Liandrin freed her. Once freed, she helps Liandrin escape, killing a sul’dam in the process. Using the Mask of Mirrors she disguises herself as the fallen sul’dam and begins operating within the Tai’Seanchan borders in secret.
3 FA – Moghedien travels to the Seanchan continent and works her way into the graces of Lord Garel Harisch Tiran Madonine, becoming soe’feia.
Galadedrid Damodred marries Berelain sur Paendrag Paeron, ruler of Mayene.
4 FA – The war of succession back in the Seanchan homeland ends before Fortuona can intervene. Lord Garel now takes the name Garelwyn Harisch Huan Paendrag. The new emperor Garelwyn begins the task of rebuilding, rejects Fortuona’s overtures of peace, assumes the Crystal Throne for his own, and refuses to acknowledge the terms of the Dragon’s Peace.
Fortuona gives birth to her second child, a son, Davin Toruke Paendrag.
Elnore Mandragoran, daughter of Lan and Nynaeve, is born.
5 FA – News of the consolidation of Seanchan spreads throughout the Mainland. Fortuona renames her territories Tai’Seanchan (True Seanchan) and works to reassure the other nations that she will hold to the terms of the Dragon Peace.
Sea Folk ships mention constant, strange storms over Shara, which has otherwise been silent since the Last Battle.
Galad and Berelain have a son, they name him Roial. During this time, Galad has made many reforms to the Children of the Light, but not everyone is happy about the changes, especially the leniency against Aes Sedai and Asha'man. There are mutters of discontent as he works towards making them allies of the Children.
6 FA – Cadsuane and Logain begin to establish relations of mutual, but wary, respect between the Two Towers.
Foreseeing the long lifespans of channelers, both Amyrlin and M’Hael agree to limit the length of time that channelers can hold positions of high rank to 100 years or less.
The Red Ajah is also repurposed to (1) seeking out channelers to send to the White Tower to train, and (2) dealing with rogue channelers who are not Aiel, Sea Folk or Seanchan.
Maric Mandragoran, son of Lan and Nynaeve, is born.
Aiel scouts find the walled border towns of Shara empty and devoid of inhabitants. There are no signs of violence or struggle. They are driven away by the storms before going further into Shara.
7 FA – Calwin Bashere, the daughter of Perrin and Faile is born.
8 FA – Malkier is rebuilt by al’Lan and el'Nynaeve ti al'Meara Mandragoran.
13 FA – The Amyrlin Cadsuane, already aged during her ascension, dies naturally in her sleep. She is succeeded by Saerin Asnobar, the last surviving Sister to have witnessed the actual meeting and discussion leading to the signing of the Dragon Peace.
15 FA – Bethamin Zeami, a former sul’dam, is raised as an Aes Sedai of the Grey.
Academy of the Rising Sun opens a new branch in Caemlyn, called the Academy of the Blooming Rose.
Aiel scouts report that the walls leading into Shara are once more manned and guarded, now by seemingly uniformed soldiers. All travelers approaching are driven away by the One Power.
16 FA – Suorine Paendrag discovers that she can naturally channel, much like her aunt, Bodewhin Sedai. The Dragon Peace ensures that no damane will be collared unwillingly, but Tai'Seanchan law dictates marath'damane must be exiled. Rather than be subject to the collar, she makes the choice to train as an Aes Sedai.
Following Suorine’s decision, Darbinda informs Fortuona of a Viewing that demands she reveal to the public that sul’dam can learn to channel else they lose their Reclaimed Lands completely. Uproar ensues. This knowledge threatens to break down the fabric of Seanchan society, but Tuon holds them together by sheer will of character.
Suorine’s brother, Davin Paendrag, becomes the next heir to the Tai’Seanchan, to much murmuring among The Blood.
Seana chooses to train and become a Wise One voluntarily on her own. Padra refuses the call.
17 FA – For the first time, Tai'Seanchan allows men and women who can channel in Falme, without being collared. Any marath'damane outside the Capital run the risk of being "detained for immediate deportation."
This move is decried by the Seanchan Emperor in the West, who also states that Fortuona’s impure bloodline precludes her and her line from ever being allowed to sit on the Crystal Throne.
Seta Zarbey is raised as an Aes Sedai of the Red, the second former sul’dam to do so.
18 FA – Moranna Trakand enrolls in the White Tower as a Novice.
Padra’s spears are finally broken and she is forced by Aviendha to take up the mantle of Wise One as her mother and sister did due to her channeling abilities.
Gawain trains as a Warder.
Thom Merrilin dies and is mourned by many all over the Westlands.
19 FA - Galad and Berelain are murdered. The Children of the Light fall into chaos. All that is sure is that they blame the Aes Sedai. Mayene also falls into chaos and the four year old child, Roial, is nowhere to be found. Dain Bornhald eventually emerges as the commander for the Children, but the fate of Mayene is still unsure.
20 FA – Elnore Mandragoran, the eldest daughter of Lan and Nynaeve, enrolls in the White Tower as a Novice. She is too weak to become Aes Sedai, but trains nonetheless.
Both Alarch and Janduin are sent from the Waste to the Black Tower to train their abilities in the One Power as Asha’man.
21 FA – Emperor Garelwyn of the Seanchan gathers a preliminary force and sends a probing attack to the Westlands, landing on Tai’Seanchan coastlines. They are quickly repelled within two months but cause significant damage to Tarabon and Toman Head. Not long after, the Sea Folk on Tremalking go silent.
Seana is sent to the White Tower to “broaden her experiences”, as her mother puts it.
Gawain discovers his innate channelling abilities. He is sent to the Black Tower to become an Asha’man.
22 FA – While the entire Westlands stand guard on the coast of Tai'Seanchan, the Emperor makes a secret maneuver and strikes from the Sea of Storms.
Black powder is used in battle against the Seanchan as Elayne's Dragons are brought through Gateways.
Dain Bornhald is lauded for keeping Mayene safe, though in reality the Seanchan seemed disinterested in the small nation. With the people on his side, he extends his leadership role to that of ruler of the Nation.
The loss of Illian is catastrophic for the Westland armies, as it opens the Ways to the Seanchan Empire army. Without the tactical superiority afforded by their sole access to Gateways, the Seanchan Empire's victory seems all but assured. In a desperate attempt, Perrin Goldeneyes, Steward of the Two Rivers, leads a team of Aes Sedai and Asha'man into the Ways. Despite Padan Fain's death during Tarmon Gai'don, Machin Shin continues to haunt the Ways, dogging their every step. Through the combined efforts of all involved, and the timely intervention of Ogier Treesingers, the bridges surrounding the Illian Waygate within the Ways are destroyed, preventing the Seanchan from using the Ways to outmaneuver the Westlands or resupply. Additionally, the combination of Ogier Treesingers and channelers does something previously thought impossible and cleanses the small section of the Ways around the Illian Waygate. Machin Shin seems unable to return to the cleansed area.
23 FA – While his first armies are being tied up in the south, the Emperor attacks Falme and Toman Head.
Arad Doman is lost within months and they reach the border to Saldaea almost at the same time.
Lan and Nynaeve both Travel personally to the defense of Saldaea with a contingent of Borderland troops to slow the advance on this second front. The southern front slowly moves its way up to Lugard, before being stalled again at the Hills of Kinlum.
Fortuona’s armies, led by Matrim Cauthon (Knotai), fight to keep the invaders from stepping foot into Tai’Seanchan.
Seana returns to the Aiel to resume her training as a Wise One.
24 FA – The third and final front opens when the Emperor launches a third attack from Tremalking into Tarabon, drawing off most of the Tai’Seanchan forces. The western front is stalled at Caechin and the Black Hills just west of Tar Valon and north of Caralain by the combined efforts of Aes Sedai and Asha’man led by the Amrylin and M’Hael.
Padra finally becomes a Wise One of the Taardad Aiel.
Gawain becomes a full-fledged Asha’man and returns to defend Andor and the western front.
25 FA – The siege of Caechin continues without abating and puts heavy pressure on the Borderland and Tower troops.
Lan falls in battle and Caechin is lost. Nynaeve, reminiscent of Eldrene’s sacrifice at Manetheren, destroys the city of Caechin and the majority of the western front with a huge burst of the Power, sacrificing herself at the same time.
Sharina Sedai, the Aes Sedai advisor of Malkier, steps in as regent to restore order for a month while Elnore Mandragoran is summoned from her training in the White Tower.
Elayne Trakand and Aviendha Travel in secret to a secluded cabin somewhere in the mountains, seeking aid to turn the tide of the war. They are unsuccessful in their attempts.
Saerin Asnobar and Logain Ablar together begin to drive the western front back towards the Aryth Ocean.
Seana becomes a Wise One.
Gawain Trakand weds Elia Aybara of the Two Rivers, binding the Royal Line of Andor and the Stewards of the Two Rivers together.
26 FA – With the loss of the Tai’Seanchan forces, the armies of the southern front (comprised of Andor, Cairhien, Tear, Murandy and Illian) have been struggling to hold.
Maric Mandragoran, a full Asha'man, returns to Malkier to stand with his sister as her Captain-General.
Elayne Trakand and her sister Aviendha lead a desperate push comprising of Andoran and Aiel forces against the southern front, leading to their deaths, but give the rest of the armies a breathing space.
Upon Aviendha’s death, her children manage to eradicate the usage of black powder and ensure the outlawing of its use as a part of the Dragon Compact, enforced by the Aiel. Aludra goes missing soon after.
Morgase Trakand, Elayne’s mother, steps in as regent of Andor and Cairhien while Moranna continues her training to become an Aes Sedai.
Rumors begin circulating in the Two Rivers of a ghost haunting the Mountains of Mist as cries of anguish are heard moaning on the winds coming down the slopes.
Darbinda, Fortuona's Doomseer, mysteriously disappears.
27 FA – The armies of the Black Tower Travel to aid the Tai’Seanchan and use a new technique on the battlefield. The Air Legion uses gliders to carry two channelers, used for aerial attack. The invading Seanchan western front is driven back into the sea by the combined forces of the Borderlands, White Tower and Black Tower, and destroyed. Two heroes, a blond archer and an ugly man are lauded by Fortuona and given new names for their efforts in the battle. The Seanchan began to lose the war of attrition, but the forces of the Westlands also continue to suffer from the consequences.
Logain and his Aes Sedai, Gabrielle, are assassinated not long after, causing a friction to develop between the Black Tower and the Tai’Seanchan.
Jahar Narishma is elected as successor as a previous right-hand man of the Dragon Reborn himself.
28 FA – The armies of the Borderlands and the Aiel move to join the southern front, and now push Seanchan forces back into the Sea of Storms.
Mat, together with the aid of the White Tower, forces the last invaders off the Shadow Coast. The great war ends with a pyrrhic victory for the allied forces and the promise of revenge from the Seanchan Emperor.
Moranna is raised as an Aes Sedai of the White Ajah. With the blessing of the White Tower, she returns to Andor and assumes the Lion Throne and rulership of Andor and Cairhien.
Alarch, Janduin, Padra and Seana disappear, and it is not known what has become of them.
29 FA – Emperor Garelwyn of the Seanchan dies under mysterious circumstances (the punishment for failing Moghedien is death).
His second son, Mika Gurat Macu Paendrag, assumes the throne. Mika assumes the name Mikhel Gurat Dhan Paendrag upon ascension.
Fortuona and Mat travel to the Seanchan continent in a scheme to reunite the Seanchan people under Fortuona. Their plan goes awry. Fortuona is assassinated and Mat is framed in such a way that his friends and even his own children back home wonder if it could be true. Mat goes on the run, determined to prove his innocence himself, which makes him look more guilty. The ensuing ruckus is enough disturbance that Perrin Goldeneyes himself is called upon to join the Aiel peacekeepers to hunt down Mat, now a possible traitor in the eyes of the Empire.
Perrin travels to the Seanchan continent, and barely escapes with his life, but he and Mat find the proof that the Seanchan Emperor was behind the plot (Moghedien stays in the shadows). They return to the Westlands and reveal the truth.
Mat is next in line to become emperor of Tai’Seanchan but refuses and travels the Westlands like a depressed celebrity.
Their second child, Davin Paendrag, inherits the Throne. He assumes the name Davindron Toruke Atram Paendrag. There is a period of unease among the Tai’Seanchan nobility, for Davindron Paendrag is the first man to rule Seanchan for nearly a thousand years, but he is still preferable to his sister, whom many consider marath'damane.
During Perrin's absence, the Two Rivers begins to stir with unrest under Moranna's rule.
Moiraine Sedai travels to Arad Doman to aid in their recovery, organizing the first outreach program for the common people from the Blue Ajah. She also begins a program for helping marath'damane escape Tai'Seanchan in secret.
30 FA – Adora Aybara, the daughter of Gawain Trakand and Elia Aybara, is born.

38 FA - Gawain Trakand is killed while on Black Tower assignment in the Blight.
40 FA – Though ultimately fair, just and logical, Moranna struggles with the chaotic nature of politics and alliances, especially with Cairhien.
The Two Rivers splits off as a separate nation, claiming the lands within the Two Rivers as well as Ghealdan, with ties to both Andor and Cairhien as Moranna is unable to maintain order over several countries with very different cultures.
Perrin Aybara, having no desire to be King, steps down from his position as Steward of the The Two Rivers after ensuring that his new nation is stable. His son, Tomas Aybara, is crowned the First King of Manetheren. It is agreed by negotiations between Andor, the White Tower, and Manetheren, that Adora Aybara will succeed Tomas.
Under Morgase’s advice and leadership, Moranna also bequeaths Cairhien to her uncle, Lawcion, who is far more adept at the Game of Houses she is. Lawcion marries Collette Saighan and takes her surname, gaining him favor amongst Cairhienin nobility.
47 FA – Adora Aybara discovers she has the spark. She is sent to the White Tower for training.
50 FA - The Academy of the Rising Sun opens a new branch in Malkier.
52 FA – Talana Trakand, daughter of Moranna Trakand, is born.
53 FA – Alviarin Freidhen and Atal Mishraile escape from Stedding Sholoon (OOC Note: They were freed by Zarina and Avyanna Sedai under direction of Moghedien).
A Compulsion was set on one of the Ogier of the Stedding. Though the weave itself dissipated within the bounds, enough of the Ogier’s mind had already been corrupted that he set the Darkfriends imprisoned within free. Only Alviarin and Mishraille managed to escape permanently. The rest were immediately killed on sight when word reached the kingdoms of the Dragon Compact.
54 FA – Amrylin Saerin Asnobar dies in her sleep due to natural causes. She is succeeded by Sharina Melloy of the Yellow Ajah, who is called back from her duties as Aes Sedai advisor to the Malkieri Queen Elnore Mandragoran. Bodewhin Cauthon is chosen as Sharina’s replacement.
55 FA – Moghedien helps a Seanchan scientist learn the secret formula for Shadowspawn. The Blight fills quickly on the Seanchan continent and causes massive initial devastation before Emperor Mikhel can halt it with the aid of damane.

Emperor Mikhel dies of old age. His third daughter, Arkhani Neloth Seta Paendrag, assumes the throne. Empress Arkhani continues her forefathers’ plans and dreams of Seanchan expansion.
56 FA - Dain Bornhald also dies of old age in his sleep. His son, Tazenia Borhald takes command of both the Children and the Nation of Mayene.
57 FA – Adora Aybara is raised to Accepted and given the Serpent Ring.

Trolloc raids from the restored Blight begin. The Borderlands mount a heavy defense. There are channelers on both sides of the fighting.

Adora Aybara is raised as a Sister of the Grey Ajah.
73 FA – Tomas Aybara steps down from the throne of Manetheren and is succeeded by his niece Adora Aybara Sedai.
74 FA - Kailana Mandragoran, daughter of el’Elnore Mandragoran, is born.
75 FA – In a fit of madness, Rahlin suddenly declares war against the White Tower and Andor. All the nations of the Dragon Compact are taken by surprise at the sudden eruption of hostilities, and are unable to respond in time.
In three months, the forces of the Black Tower are at Tar Valon’s gates and have the White Tower under siege.
Only the usage of Dreamspikes, created by the Aiel and distributed to all the nations of the Compact, manage to prevent the Asha’man following Rahlin from Traveling into the White Tower itself and wreaking havoc.
Many Red sisters, including Zarya Alkaese are murdered.
(OOC Note: His madness was a result of compulsion and dreams from Avyanna Sedai of the Black Ajah)

80 FA – The crisis of the Towers over, Sharina Melloy retires to the Kin, and Silviana Brehon succeeds her as Amyrlin.
Relations between the Towers, already slightly strained by Rahlin’s actions, do not improve much due to the White Tower’s reactionary raising of Silviana, who is less trustful of the Asha’man than her predecessors.
Baelin Saighan, son of Asan Saighan, current Heir to the Sun Throne, is born, ensuring succession for two generations.
81 FA – After a long reign full of turmoil, Davindron Paendrag passes the throne on to his daughter, Raela Paendrag. His tenure as Emperor of the Tai’Seanchan was full of instability in the world, which many of his nobles take to be a sign that men are not to rule in Seanchan society.
Raela Paendrag assumes the name Auraela Rotaem Sula Paendrag.
Sumeko Karistovan retires, returning to the Kin.
82 FA – It is discovered that during the crisis of the Towers, the Blight has expanded southwards and encroaches even upon the Borderlands.
Under the influence of Bodewhin Sedai, the Borderlanders begin a campaign to try and slow the spread of the Blight and Shadowspawn. The rest of the Dragon Pact regularly send troops and the Towers send their channelers.

Upon her capture, Moghedien stealthily swallowed her cour'souvra before it could be discovered. She was collared as a damane by Shanan and taken back to Ebou Dar. The pain caused by channeling so close to her cour'souvra is debilitating and causes her to pass out quickly whenever she is forced to channel. The Seanchan believe it to be a wilder block, but when it cannot be broken, they begin to think her damaged in some way and consider her useless and unimportant.
The Children of the Light officially move their stronghold to Mayene, rebuilding their order under the leadership of Lord Captain Commander Galadedrid Damodred.

They would then make a choice a year later on where they would wish to finish their training.
Sea Folk and Wise One apprentices would also go through this training program but to the White Tower and the other channeling faction. It is agreed that for every two Accepted who leave, two Wise One apprentices, and two Sea Folk apprentices will be exchanged.

Moghedien is found by Liandrin, now a da'covale in the Tarasin Palace after Suroth was exposed as a Darkfriend. Liandrin wisely chose to seek the Forsaken’s help rather than gloat and Moghedien agreed to unravel the shield if Liandrin freed her. Once freed, she helps Liandrin escape, killing a sul’dam in the process. Using the Mask of Mirrors she disguises herself as the fallen sul’dam and begins operating within the Tai’Seanchan borders in secret.
Sharina Melloy is raised to Accepted.
Tear renegotiates with the Atha'an Miere, and the Sea Folk are not happy with the outcome. They lose their square mile of port in that nation and leave the Dragon Compact as a result.

16 FA – Suorine Paendrag discovers that she can naturally channel, much like her aunt, Bodewhin Sedai. The Dragon Peace ensures that no damane will be collared unwillingly, but Tai'Seanchan law dictates marath'damane must be exiled. Rather than be subject to the collar, she makes the choice to train as an Aes Sedai.
Following Suorine’s decision, Darbinda informs Fortuona of a Viewing that demands she reveal to the public that sul’dam can learn to channel else they lose their Reclaimed Lands completely. Uproar ensues. This knowledge threatens to break down the fabric of Seanchan society, but Tuon holds them together by sheer will of character.
Suorine’s brother, Davin Paendrag, becomes the next heir to the Tai’Seanchan, to much murmuring among The Blood.
Seana chooses to train and become a Wise One voluntarily on her own. Padra refuses the call.

22 FA – While the entire Westlands stand guard on the coast of Tai'Seanchan, the Emperor makes a secret maneuver and strikes from the Sea of Storms.
The city of Illian is lost in hours. The Stone of Tear holds out with several Asha'man and Dragon Blooded (Aiel male channelers) within its confines. Gateway travel by the combined efforts of channelers allows for massive repositioning of armies within hours, and the advance is halted. The Westlands and Tai’Seanchan, however, are unable to take back Illian.
The usage of Traveling at the battlefront is banned for operational security reasons to prevent the Seanchan from learning it.
Black powder is used in battle against the Seanchan as Elayne's Dragons are brought through Gateways.
Dain Bornhald is lauded for keeping Mayene safe, though in reality the Seanchan seemed disinterested in the small nation. With the people on his side, he extends his leadership role to that of ruler of the Nation.
The loss of Illian is catastrophic for the Westland armies, as it opens the Ways to the Seanchan Empire army. Without the tactical superiority afforded by their sole access to Gateways, the Seanchan Empire's victory seems all but assured. In a desperate attempt, Perrin Goldeneyes, Steward of the Two Rivers, leads a team of Aes Sedai and Asha'man into the Ways. Despite Padan Fain's death during Tarmon Gai'don, Machin Shin continues to haunt the Ways, dogging their every step. Through the combined efforts of all involved, and the timely intervention of Ogier Treesingers, the bridges surrounding the Illian Waygate within the Ways are destroyed, preventing the Seanchan from using the Ways to outmaneuver the Westlands or resupply. Additionally, the combination of Ogier Treesingers and channelers does something previously thought impossible and cleanses the small section of the Ways around the Illian Waygate. Machin Shin seems unable to return to the cleansed area.

The invading Seanchan western front is driven back into the sea by the combined forces of the Borderlands, White Tower and Black Tower, and destroyed. Two heroes, a blond archer and an ugly man are lauded by Fortuona and given new names for their efforts in the battle. The Seanchan began to lose the war of attrition, but the forces of the Westlands also continue to suffer from the consequences.

Fortuona and Mat travel to the Seanchan continent in a scheme to reunite the Seanchan people under Fortuona. Their plan goes awry. Fortuona is assassinated and Mat is framed in such a way that his friends and even his own children back home wonder if it could be true. Mat goes on the run, determined to prove his innocence himself, which makes him look more guilty. The ensuing ruckus is enough disturbance that Perrin Goldeneyes himself is called upon to join the Aiel peacekeepers to hunt down Mat, now a possible traitor in the eyes of the Empire.
Perrin travels to the Seanchan continent, and barely escapes with his life, but he and Mat find the proof that the Seanchan Emperor was behind the plot (Moghedien stays in the shadows). They return to the Westlands and reveal the truth.
Mat is next in line to become emperor of Tai’Seanchan but refuses and travels the Westlands like a depressed celebrity.
Their second child, Davin Paendrag, inherits the Throne. He assumes the name Davindron Toruke Atram Paendrag. There is a period of unease among the Tai’Seanchan nobility, for Davindron Paendrag is the first man to rule Seanchan for nearly a thousand years, but he is still preferable to his sister, whom many consider marath'damane.
During Perrin's absence, the Two Rivers begins to stir with unrest under Moranna's rule.
