Editing Continuity/Viamontian History (section)

== Asheron's Call ==
This is the period of time from beta leading up to Dark Majesty. We had sparse information on the Viamontians (often called Viamonters during this time) during the early period of the game. By piecing together information from several sources, we are able to create the following timeline:
