Events From the Beginning of Corwin's Chronicles

In the first year after Corwin wakes up in Greenwood, Corwin comes to Amber, Random is sentenced to marry Vialle, Corwin and Bleys stage a failed assault on Amber, Bleys disappears, Corwin is captured, and Eric crowns himself King.

Around three months into Corwin's captivity, Random (who does not complete his year-long sentence in Rebma), walks the Pattern, and tries to kill Eric. He is captured. Vialle petitions to join him, a week later, but Eric does not immediately grant this request. In the second year of Corwin's captivity, Vialle joins Random in prison.

In the third year, Corwin's eyes regenerate. Corwin escapes before the fourth coronation anniversary is reached.

Corwin returns to Amber, with Ganelon and guns, slightly more than five years after he woke up in Greenwood.

MUSH Chronology

We begin the MUSH at the point of Corwin's return. From here, we switch to a real-world chronology, with IC time equating OOC time at a one-to-one ratio. This chronology includes only major events that everyone would be aware of.

• October 2007 - Eric ends the battle against the Black Road in a coma (rather than dying, as he does in the books). Corwin is de facto regent. Battle of the Oisen. Brand is rescued from the tower in which he has been imprisoned.

• January 2008 - Black Ice fought in Kitezh, where a new Volcano announces that Gotterdamerung may be approaching. The local outcropping of the Black Road is beaten, and the road seems dormant.

• March 2008 - Corwin is crowned King. Benedict resigns his commission.

• June 2008 - The deterioration of the Golden Circle shadowpaths becomes a significant concern.

• August 2008 - The Black Road lays siege to Amber City while Corwin is away from Amber. The Portafada take advantage of this to conduct their own assault (the "bug invasion"). The Black Road army is driven off (it's the last great Road battle in Amber), but at great cost in lives, and the Lower City is badly damaged by the Portafada assault.

• September 2008 - Corwin leaves Amber, taking his gunmen but leaving no public instructions or message of abdication. Leviathan (an ancient sea-monster and enemy of Rebma) rises, and his cult returns, but they are eventually defeated.

• November 2008 - Brand becomes regent.

• March 2009 - Brand hands the regency to Julian. Plague is detected along the Ghenesh shadowpath, and dealt with.

• May 2009 - Julian is crowned King. The Black Road invades Pathi, and is repelled with assistance from outside Pathi, but at great cost.

• September 2009 - The Alhambran necromancer Jabir murders Duke Parris Chantris in a ritual which brings a Blight upon the upper city.

• October 2009 - Julian goes into shadow to hunt Dara, leaving Llewella as regent. A violent earthquake shakes Rebma, when its Pattern is destroyed.

• November 2009 - Llewella turns the regency over to Deirdre. There is a coup. Random is Regent for three days, and then Benedict crowns himself King.

• December 2009 - Silverspire is sundered from Weirmonken. Julian is rescued.

• February 2010 - Eric is rescued from Order.
