Discovering the valley

Under King Philip I Kroon’s rule, Hollandos was greatly expanding. Some people settled in the valley of Veluwos, naming it after the giant untamed tundra that filled the valley. Fields of bright tulips stretched as far as the eye could see. And soon, the people discovered that the valley was filled with meteorite and other very rare gems and minerals. They used this to build up their cities and towns, like Nymanos, Tulliforte, Meteos, Golda, Oasore and Tunning. It became a very popular tourist attraction, which spawned a number of inns.

The East River Flood

It was the year 300 AS, and the then warden of the valley, Quarón Arnymos, saw a devastating prophecy of a flood. He bombed the temple where he got saw the prophecy and forbade anyone to talk about it.

In the year 366 AS, a great flood came from the east. It raised the water levels in the Veluwos river to such extreme levels, that the water came pouring in the valley. People from Veluwos ran in hordes, but most of them perished under the crashing waves of water. Almost every city and town in this once beautiful province, was swept away. Only a few groups manage to flee, while the rest died in the valley. Since this tragic event, Veluwos has been abandoned, expect for a few individuals.

The rise of dark magic

After Veluwos became a barren wasteland, it was abandoned. But right next to the valley lay Hollefort, where bad wizards and other scum of Hollandos were locked away. From time to time, some manages to escape, which now led them to Veluwos. They started gathering in the ruins of Nymanos, Tulliforte and Oasore. Renaming the latter two to Donkeforte and Spreukswore. They created little communities and started performing dark magic and forbidden rituals. The province became a place of sorrow and darkness, where no one dared to venture.
