(Dated by years in relevance to the absence of the Guardian of the South) (The long span of time between these events, and the relevance of the situation over many eons is explained by the fact that the average Homo Sapyros can live anywhere from 1000-3000 years if they are not killed by battles, which most of the population is. The reason that the Homo Sapyros do not overpopulate the world is because 1/2 of the women are infertile.)
 * Historical Timeline of the War of Monks**

0-All traces of the Guardian disappear, and no one even recollects so much as his real name. All images of his human form disappear, and people begin a search for the missing Phoenix.

10-People begin to lose interest in the search for the Guardian, but since they know he is immortal, his followers (The Monks of Phirumsol’s Guardian Tower) continue to search.

97-The Monks, having two opposing views (to search for the Phoenix, and to elect a new “Guardian”) split into two factions, Those who believe in his return became known as the Fire, and those who sought new leadership the Ashes.

253-Blood is shed by two men in a bar fight arguing over the Phoenix, and his return. This has happened before, but this fight appears to truly divide the parties of people because the two men fighting were of common knowledge, and somewhat regal. This puts both sides on edge.

505-570-Nine men are murdered by a series of gang related crimes. These men were all painted reds and oranges. Then, the murderers took the victims’ blood and used it to draw flaming wings around the bodies. This string of homicides became known as the Phoenix murders. They once again split up the two parties that had slowly mended their bonds.

1006-The two groups started to fight and the Fire took the Temple of the Phoenix as their base, and the Ashes took the Administrative building locate at the Southern end of the Obsidian City

1500-The Ashes begin electing leaders, though they are not recognized entirely by society they are treated by some as the “Guardian”

1803-Seven members of the Ashes met seven members of the Fire and tried to reach peace...unsuccessfully.

2139-A battle was fought in the streets, known as the First Feather Fire. 100 people died, both monks and civilians.

2595-The war is set in a stalemate due to equality in war technology. 3290-The hydromagmization process is shrunken, making the production of obsidian weapons slightly easier. This led to more fighting but no major battles.

4000-The two parties meet again in an attempt to make peace. The Ashes were more adamant about electing a leader, and the Fire could not allow that to pass. One man on the side of the Fire was angered and attacked the Ashes, this led to a brawl and 3 men died.

4250-In lieu of the failed peace a series of three battles broke out resulting in two victories to the Fire, and one to the Ashes.

4730-The Ashes outraged by their loss, attacked the Temple of the Phoenix, destroying it and the home of the other party. This led to an oppression in the South and a small rebellion that stood no chance, as the Ashes stockpiled weapons and killed the Fire.

9000-After five thousand years of oppression the Fire tried to retaliate. They were decimated and the rebellion seemed to all but vanish.

9070-Elektra is elected by the Ashes to rule the South with an Iron fist.

9997-Elektra is killed by the Guardian of the East. This causes much confusion in the Ashes resulting in a surprise attack by the remnants of the Fire, and the taking of part of the Obsidian City. There they wait for the whispers of an immortal man traveling with Chomalungma.
