Read the Chronicle →Recovered Archive
Old words. Living evidence.
Arcadia in the recovered texts is Athera. The old name is modernized, while every event, title, power, and disappearance is reviewed on its own evidence.
Beetus, Tyto, and Squatch
The First Three
Protected founding history and the foundation of Book I.
Cybershanty and the Reginald crew
The Fourth Arrival
Keep the Riftwake, Calm Tide, and Armada; use Riftstalker and the current arrival account.
Christa
Guardian of the Stone Shores
Strongly aligned with her accepted role as rescuer, adviser, horsekeeper, and Stone Sentinel.
Trey, CROW, Bug, and the blade
The Stillroot Accounts
Keep Trey’s hermitage, herbs, cooking, and blade. Review Bug and the blade’s exact forging.
CROW
The Legend of CROW
Keep his warrior and smith legacy; reject the claim that his Nether sacrifice ended his story.
CROW, Beetus, Trey, and Christa
The First Wither War
Potential shared battle history, but the chronology and participants require approval.
The Ender Dragon victory
The Spiteful Dragon
Conflicts with protected founder history. Preserve only as an old retelling, not the factual account.
Spartan Lex / Axe
Axe the Scribe
Preserve the engineer-to-scribe path. The pufferfish incident requires explicit approval.
LightBeWithU
Light the Mad
Preserve the identity and surviving creations; treat metaphysical redstone claims as legend.
Lilith
Lilith the Brave
Preserve the master builder and Port of Avagadro. Do not invent her current fate.
BraXton
BraXton’s Flame
Preserve the Dark Prince title and absence since the Fall; treat the twenty Withers as legend.
Nova
Nova the Loyalist
Preserve builder, mage, explorer, and return after the Fall; old administrative powers are historical at most.
Atherian redstone laboratory
Forge Lumina
A useful location whose ownership and relationship to Stillroot need a final canon pass.
Lilith’s pickaxe relic
Heartrend
Excellent relic story; exact materials, powers, and Warden pact remain proposed.
CROW and Beetus
The Aegis Forged
Keep the craft philosophy; Arcadium ore and the wyrm test need modern materials and chronology.
Axe and SyberGoth
Shadowsworn Aegis
Hold for a decision on SyberGoth, Hazardous SMP, and the old Council’s Hand role.
Fluffy and allied arrivals
The Second Age
Likely useful community history after names, realms, and timing are checked.
Mighty
The Chronicles of Mighty
The person and loyalty may be historical; parallel Atheras and the Riftgate are not established.
Kennyson
Kennyson’s Legacy
Vault, Magic Reads, mentorship, and disappearance need direct confirmation.
Nostalgic
Nostalgic the Alchemist
The alchemist may be historical; Wither chronology and magical artifacts remain unverified.
Removed character and attached history
Jarhead Sean
Excluded completely. The character, banners, wars, and claimed continuity will not be reassigned.
