Timeline and General History

Though Ayresgarde has existed long before these recorded times, Ayresgarde was granted Incipient status by Their Royal Majesties King Ivar and Queen Asney in A.S. LII. The Incipient Shire of Ayresgarde was granted Shire status during the Plague Years of AS LV to LVI. Ayresgarde was finally formally recognized and granted full shire status by Their Majesties King Wernar and Queen Sadb, at Ayresgarde’s Midsummer Mischief event, July 23rd A.S. LVII.
