Prehistory
According to archeological evidence, the first evidence of human kind stepping foot on Wintermoore was in 9100 BCE. Evidence suggests that these first arrivals likely came from modern day Novogaard, and did not remain on the island long, likely settling on the island of Haverr for a period of time, before either dying out to the cold, or leaving the islands entirely. It is believed that the Winterian isles remained uninhabited throughout most of the prehistorical era following this failed attempted at habitation, likely due to the cold and harsh conditions on the islands. Despite this, tales of an island chain off the shores of Avanor's northern coasts intrigued Avanoran peoples, especially the Nordics and Fenns, who wrote numerous stories of this supposedly beautiful and mysterious island. The first long term human attempt at habitation would occur in the 1900s BCE, as scholars are aware. This is the first record we have of ancient Nordic writing on the island's coast. By this point, the weather on the islands had moderated to the point which would allow for mass habitation, and therefore allowed for Nordic adventurers to land at the site we know today as Eyjafjoll. It was there that legend has it the original sailors under Harold the Bold dismantled their ships and used the wood to build the first houses of the region, establishing the city. Legends further state that Harold the Bold was led to the site of Svenborg by a glowing light with a banner of red with a white cross upon it.
