-: A Brief History of Tamriel :-
An Altmeri Perspective
(incl. personal timeline)
(also the Phynasterian Perambulators & the Psijic Order)
​ The Dawn Era was a period during which time followed an incomprehensible nonlinear path and the very laws of nature remained unset, making a timeline an artificial fabrication.
In later eras, in various areas and over varying periods of time, people experienced a refrain of the chaos of the Dawn, which is known today as a Dragon Break.
End of the Dawn Era:
— Magnus and the Magna Ge depart for Aetherius; as the world congeals into reality, the remaining et'Ada construct the Adamantine Tower on what is to become the Isle of Balfiera in Iliac Bay; here they convene to decide the fate of Mundus.
— The Ehlnofey remain in the mortal realm and populate it, becoming the progenitors of the races of today.
— Y 'ffre and his followers sacrifice themselves to form the Earth Bones (the rules of nature)
— Auri-El ascends to Aetherius in full observance of his followers, so that they too might learn the steps to escape Mundus.
— Magic ebbs
— The Aurbis stabilises.
​
Middle Merethic Era:
— The Aldmer leave the doomed continent of Aldmeris (Old Ehlnofey) and settle in Tamriel.
— The Crystal Tower is built in Summerset.
— Aldmeri explorers explore and chart Tamriel 's sea-lanes, and map the coasts of Vvardenfell.
— Dissident Aldmer Elders, followers of the Elder Way, depart for the Isle of Artaeum; the Psijic Order is formed.
