Scondorian Era
Scondoro and his blood-line reigned, during their time, over all of Scondoreth. This time was called the Scondorian Era. After 237 years of the being the supreme rulers, Scondoro IV was overthrown and killed by a mysterious human who disappeared after the alleged assassination in his own castle just as suddenly he appeared in Tenezek. Tenezek was the rebellious city-state of humans that had been tyrannized by the scondorians ever since humans and scondorians came into existence, and who had been right behind this shadowy figure.

The Exodus
Two years after the death of Scondoro V, there was peace between the humans and scondorians on Scondoreth. This great time of cooperation was called The Exodus, due to the remarkable amount of development in the areas of transportation. Also, this was when scondorians discovered the continent of Ethraltridor that was a two month journey across the Ocean to the west of Scondoreth. It was upon this continent that the scondorians (and later the humans) first met dwarves, elves, and orcs.

The Exodus continued for another 66 years, during which scondorians and humans poured into Ethraltridor. Unfortunately, this caused many tensions between the natives and the pioneers because of the sudden shortage of resource and land availability.

Warring Ages
During the very first of the Warring Ages, the only conflicts that occured were those of politics. After three years of these strifes, though, the dwarves and the elves had had enough. They declared war against the humans and the scondorians, who in turn did the same. The orcs, however, remained neutral.

Over the course of the next 91 years, battles raged all over Ethraltridor, from the scondorian city of Cryos to the north, to the Wilderness of Kkar to the south.

The 91 years passed, and the scondorians started to gain the dominance of Ethraltridor. The humans, though, were tired and worn, and finally wanted peace. This greatly pleased the dwarves and elves, but did not go over very well with the scondorians. They broadened their attack range to include the humans and declared war on the humans as well. The humans then sought the support of the elves and the dwarves, and they graciously accepted the humans.

Another 3 years passed, and then the scondorians made their major mistake; they attacked and took control of the two orc cities Galging and Krätkin that resided in the southernmost points of Ethraltidor. The scondorians had thought that by showing off their power they could win the alleagance of the orcs.

They were very wrong. In less than a year, the orcs took back Galging and Krätkin, and conquered the scondorian city, Jarnid, that was secretly hidden in the Entario Mountains. The scondorians that were in those cities were enslaved, and Jarnid was completely assimilated into an orc city.

From that point on, things went downhill for the scondorian race. Their cities were constantly picked at by the orcs who were using guerrilla warfare, and they had increased losses with the elves, dwarves, and now, humans.
