Chronicles of the Spellborn developers have released the latest in a series of articles fleshing out the timeline of the Spellborn universe. This week's article features part four of the "Age of Expansion".
Age of Expansion (Part 4):

- 538 AC: After exploring the Shard and freeing it from the Undying Ice, the Enclave settles down in Westdell. Thawing the Undying Ice not only allowed the Enclave to discover more landmass, it also awoke a terrible foe, the Howlers.

Mount of Heroes: The most notable thing about Mount of Heroes is its size and unnatural shape. Scholars say the current state of Mount of Heroes is the result of a massive collision between two shards or fragments, crushing into one another and merging together. It is named Mount of Heroes, for only the brave can survive on its soil.
Howlers: Their origin is unknown, yet their existence isn't the likes of fables or myths. They have spread throughout the other Shards in the Deadspell Storm ever since they were first discovered by unfortunate miners excavating the Mount of Heroes Mines. Being natural burrowers, they always have the element of surprise as they launch themselves at their victims from their underground hiding places.
Speyrfolk: Speyrfolk is the collective name for four human clans left on the Shard of Ringfell. These clans are tribal in nature and in constant strife with each other. Lots of mysteries surround them, and many intrigues are yet to be cleared up by the adventurous.
