In the year 263 AF, the city-state of Ashtan began to look to her southern neighbor for annexation. The [[Sentinels of Nature|Sentinels]] Guild was one of the few guilds to pledge its support of a free Thera. It should be noted that though Ashtan may have attempted to annex the town, they have remained allies, before and since.

The Vertani Magelords rained firey meteors down upon Thera in the year 385 AF in a fit of retaliation, razing the town to the ground and annihilating all everyone within its confines. The only survivor was [[Enfrin]], the woodcutter, whose abode dwells closer to the Black Forest and thus missed the meteors that bombarded the town.
