Millennium of the Star

Early History
At the Battle of Eel's Bay, both the Lord of Agiya and the Lord of Engel were slain. Their sons rose to Lordship, though both empires found themselves weak and forged alliances with the hope that united they would succeed. Successfully, the new Lords of Agiya and Engel consolidated much power and formed the Brancan Confederation. After some time, the Brancan Confederation devised a plan to conquer Southern Chailan. Lonah, Lord of Chailan, heard of the plan and foresaw defeat. Instead of preparing defenses and fighting, the Lord Lonah fought to meet Rhima, the Lord of Agiya, and Anselm, the Lord of Engel, in Blodwyne. The three forged an alliance called the Lords of the Brancan Confederation.

Several years later, the lords Otho (Lord of Senátia ), Amator (Lord of Northern Chailan ), Guiscard (Lord of Vehan ), and Amydus (Lord of Didacus ) ambushed the Lords of the Brancan Confederation in Blodwyne, where they met once a year. Between the Seven Lords a long war, called The War before the Great Tree, lasted. After a decade of warfare, however, the Seven Lords decided to unite. They met beside the Tree Hemwyne. By the ordainment of the Old God, each lord fed the Tree Hemwyne seven drops of blood. The Tree Hemwyne grew to be the tallest and strongest of all trees. Allegedly, the Tree Hemwyne reached the realm of the Old God.

The Seven Lords feasted with the Old God in his realm, and in each lord’s chalice of wine the Old God placed a drop of his own ichor. Each drop granted each lord one wish. With each of these wishes, each lord was gifted another five-hundred years of life (with the exception of Lord Otho who already wished for immortality, so all his people were instead granted exceptionally long lives). The Seven Lords—blessed by the Old God—officially united as the High Brethren Order of the Seas (also known as the Seven-Star of the Brethren). This unification marked the start of the Millennium of the Star.
