Er’Da

Er'Da is a realm between realms. Sprouted from a charred seed of the-world-that-was which was stolen by a relatively unkown and low-ranking Lord of the Dark Gods during the world's destruction and later cast away, only to take root at the banks of the Ur-River where it's shores meet the plane of chaos. This realm grows as a life-containing aberration that lies between and around the mortal realms yet fully within the chaos plane, and is a representation of the Nature and Chaos of each of those two harbinger realms, having formed in and around the giant Ur-tree that sprouted from the seed.

"The Gates Have Fallen"
The Dark Lord of Rifnir's armies have breached the gates of Castle VanDrën and the city of Drënberg; the very defending walls of the Cities of Order and life within the Realm. The King has been deposed by the budding Krugian Empire and has disappeared on a seemingly self-imposed exile. The Dark Lord's army nearly broke itself upon the walls and retreats to regroup and re-supply, but now the metaphorical flood-gates have opened and marauding and opportunistic warbands seize the opportunity to ransack what's left of the already bombarded City. The Chapter of the Owl (Order of Azyr in the realm) in the city works tirelessly with the now-broken Drënberg Garrison to keep order, but they are in over their heads. All the while Krugia refuses to send aid to it's dispossessed and abandoned peoples, instead cowering in safety behind the forests and rivers that lie between the two countries.

End of The-World-That-Was

A charred and sealed conifer seed is stolen by an unknown Lord of the Dark Gods from the rubble of the world-that-was

0-1

The Age of myth

The unkown Dark Lord, now in the planes of Chaos, fractures and casts away the seed in a fit of rage, cursing his own futility but all the while not knowing the seed's true nature.

The seed floats aimlessly through the Chaos planes, herded by the winds of magic 

1

Conception

The seed finds the bank of the Ur-River, where it's waters meet the plane of chaos, drinks of it and takes root in it's banks

The Seed sprouts into the Ur-Tree, which grows between the realms and the plane of chaos, and harbors life amongst it's vast and complex systems of boughs, branches and roots.

2

The Dark Age

After some Aeons of growth, The as-of-yet unkown Dark Lord subjugates the realm, cutting it off fully from the rest of the realms and deactivating all but one of the Realmgates, plunging it into an age of darkness and regression. Chaos reigning supreme and the souls of the dead trapped within. But the Dark  Lord is unable to find source: The root of the Ur-Tree, and life continues to grow wild here, recycling the trapped spirits of the dead through the bodies ritually buried at the foot of the Ur-tree, near it's tangled roots.

Modern Day

The Ancestor's Fire is lit beneath the Old Keep, activating the now decrepit Realmgate

The previously quelled Necroquake floods the now open Realmgate, and mana pours into the previously encapsulated realm, allowing the dead, and other entities belonging to other realms to enter Er'Da through anomalies and other realmgates, but only allowing the dead, and no one else back through.

Grises

When the Dark Lord of Rifnir broke down the gates of Drënburg, the capital of Margrave Krysvyka, the neighboring budding nation-state of Krugia declared an annexation on it's lands, but refused to help it's people, allowing marauders to pillage at will. The Dark Lord of Rifnir, now claims Drënberg, and the whole of Margrave as his own. The Order of the owl and the city's garrisoned troops would beg to differ with him however. The Dark Lord previously controlled 3/4 of the counties providences, and now the Loamgrove militia strikes a counter-offensive, intending to claim back the territories in the name of their deposed King
