-As the '''<span style="color:#006699">Fifth Century</span>''' {{Smallcaps|tr}} came to a close, Ivínians began to raid along the coast of Shôrkýnè, Emélrenè and western Tríerzòn. Ivínian dragonships bristling with bloodthirsty warriors descended on the coasts to rape, pillage and burn.

 The sanguine King Pethrás III responded with the construction of a fleet and took to the high seas himself. Initially he had considerable success, as he seemed to be able to foresee where the Ivínians would strike. His aggressiveness ultimately led to his downfall, however, when a fleet he was leading met a large raiding party off the Quándas coast. The accounts are unclear, but it seems that when the encounter occurred it was during appalling weather, and his ship became separated from the rest of his fleet. The Ivínians surrounded his flagship, boarded it, and killed all aboard. The rest of the Emélan fleet was destroyed in the chaos that followed. Pethrás was the first Emélrenè king to be killed in action since Queen Heitéia I four centuries before.

-In the '''<span style="color:#006699">Fourth Century</span>''' {{Smallcaps|tr}} Emélrenè faced an even greater enemy than the Shôrka or Táneri. The threat appeared with astonishing suddenness. In {{Smallcaps|tr}}297 the Ázeryàn Empire invaded Zonâra. Just five years later the legions had progressed across what is now Tríerzòn and Palíthanè and were in sight of Beréma.

 Emélrenè responded with remarkable vigour. In {{Smallcaps|tr}}298 the monarchy was endowed with new powers of taxation, military command, and administration. The military was reorganized, changed from a feudal muster to a professional legion system based on the Àzeryáni model. Almost overnight the feudal order was transformed. Ostensibly the empowerment of the monarch was temporary - for the duration of the crisis - but the measures were not reversed for a century and a half.

 In the '''<span style="color:#006699">Second Millennium {{Smallcaps|bt}}</span>''', invaders known to history as the Uphâri appeared in the east. In response some of the Járind tribal peoples united in a federation. Under the tutelage of the Elder Races, they formed the Covenant of the Es to defend the land from these invaders and uphold the traditions they had learned. Tradition dates the foundation of the Emélan Confederation to {{Smallcaps|bt}}1602, Year One in the Old Beréman calendar.
-Amongst the legends of this period are those of Dákarion, the first Émhlègâr, or High Chief, of the Émhlè. Dákarion led the united tribes in successful battles across the Jerinálian Mountains and in Álagon, In the '''<span style="color:#006699">Fourteenth Century</span>''' {{Smallcaps|bt}} his successors established an alliance with other Járind tribes and in {{Smallcaps|bt}}1340 the combined forces halted the Uphâri in what is now central Shôrkýnè. But by then the Émhlè had grown weary of warfare - of unreliable allies and incessant waves of invaders - and they began closing their realm. Walls were built in Beréma and the frontiers were fortified. The ambitions of the Émhlègâr turned inward and the distinctions between the Eméla and their cousin Járind peoples began to grow more stark.

-In the '''<span style="color:#006699">Twelfth Century</span>''' {{Smallcaps|bt}} yet another group of Phâric peoples assaulted Emélrenè, this time from the south. The Atáni had appeared a few decades earlier in what is now Palíthanè and had quickly driven the Járind folk from that land. The confederated Atáni tribes harassed the Émhlè state for generations. But in the '''<span style="color:#006699">Ninth Century</span>''' {{Smallcaps|bt}} the Atáni turned their attention to a land less defended - Hârn. As waves of Atáni sailed around Emélrenè for Hârn the Émhlè harried them as they could, but despite these efforts the Atáni established a foothold on the southern shores of Hârn.

 The Atáni continued their migration through the century, forcing the Elder Folk and the Járind tribes of Hârn slowly to retreat. In {{Smallcaps|bt}}683 a decisive battle was fought in southern Hârn, after which the Elder Folk abandoned their hopes of maintaining control of the islands. The Sinái took refuge in Eváel, and their ties to Emélrenè were greatly weakened. The Covenant of the Es - which linked the Émhlè to the land, the gods and the Elder Races - could not survive this loss without amendment. It would soon be replaced.
