The Knights of Solamnia sent ships to the mainland of Ansalon to learn more about the events.

The ship, The Blooming Rose, returns from Palanthas with tragic news. As many had suspected in the years following the Cataclysm the world had indeed changed. The ship’s captain brought the news of the changes in the shipping lanes and that many of the vessels that left had run aground on uncharted reefs or been lost at sea. Others were reported attacked by bands of pirates. News from Palanthas was not good as the Knights learn about the destruction of Istar and the upheaval that it had caused.

The Knights of Solamnia form the Whitestone Council which meets for the first time on Sancrist.

The council leaves Sancrist with no resolution.

352 AC- The Whitestone Council Meets Again

Meeting in the Whitestone Glade, the representatives of the remaining governments of Ansalon meet to discuss a possible alliance against the Dragon Armies.

A battle ensues that cements a lasting hatred between the two organizations.

Mt. Nevermind: The dragon overlord Pyrothraxus arrives to take over the island. Unfortunately the mountain range he has chosen to become his lair was occupied by the gnomes.

The Grand Circle of the Knighthood meets to elect a new Grand Master.

With the dragon Pyrothraxus continuing to slip into deeper madness the Grand Master Michel Cataya fears the worst. Within the last few months the dragon had begun to experience a steady loss of sanity and had begun to delve into the realms of experimentation. Fearing that the gnomes would become a twisted perversion of the themselves, he ordered General Jackson Kalkwarf to lead an expedition to slay the dragon. Wielding a dragonlance, Kalkwarf personally slew the dragon after discovering the lair in which he had started to make changes to captured gnomes. Sickened by the news of the changes to many of the captives Kalkwarf pledges to quest to find a cure.
