| The golems maintained their quiet vigil until well after The Titan War had already drawn to its end, when it was discovered by members of the Mondish Pantheon, who determined amongst itself what to do with the sleeping titan. At first the Mondish gods moved to cast away Bahzrym in the same manner as they did the other titans, but after they noticed that Bahzrym never took part in the war, they realized the titan posed no eminent threat to the new divine order of the world, and so agreed to allow him to continue his slumber without interruption on their part. | The golems maintained their quiet vigil until well after The Titan War had already drawn to its end, when it was discovered by members of the Mondish Pantheon, who determined amongst itself what to do with the sleeping titan.

| - | The 1st Timoraunian War was conducted by a coalition of Negalifalian and Titanic cults against the native Dwarven guards who sought to preserve Bahzrym's Sleep. The Coalition was formed in the belief that if Bahzrym were to reawaken it would reignite the Titan War and create enough chaos to free the dragon, Negalifal. The Coaltion succeeded in forcing their way to the titan'ss temple and completing a ritual to awaken the titan. However in reawakening the titan they also brought about his wrath. | + | The 1st Timoraunian War was conducted by a coalition of Negalifalian and Titanic cults against the native Dwarven guards who sought to preserve Bahzrym's Sleep.

| - | Bahzrym lashed out at both the cultists, the dwarves and the landscape, shattering the armies of boths sides and cracking the very continent itself into a series of small islands off the coast of the remaining continent. Reinforcements from Delver arrived to find that the surviving titanic cultists had abandoned efforts to reawaken the god, and instead had begun battling the Negalifalian cultists on site. | + | Bahzrym lashed out at both the cultists, the dwarves and the landscape, shattering the armies of both sides and cracking the very continent itself into a series of small islands off the coast of the remaining continent.

| - | The resulting series of skirmishes began the 2nd Timoraunian War, a three way proxy war between Negalifalian cultists, Bazhrymite cultists, and Dwarves, but so far have not resulted in further interruptions of Bahzrym's slumber. To date it is still believed that Bazhrym lies dormant beneath Timoraunos. | + | The resulting series of skirmishes began the 2nd Timoraunian War, a three way proxy war between Negalifalian cultists, Bahzrymite cultists, and Dwarves, but so far have not resulted in further interruptions of Bahzrym's slumber.
