=== The Dawn Age ===

All over Westeros, The Children of The Forest fought incoming First Men that migrated all over to find a home they could call their own. Most of the history of this time comes from tales by maesters, septons, seers and bards who pass history orally. The First Men left runes on rocks and had no established writing until later so most of the accounts were oral at first, later recorded. The Children of The Forest, and Giants, mainly regarded as the only two types of people living at that time, had no discernible language or writing system either. They lived off the land and created no keeps or towns either, so history prior to them was unknown.

=== The Age of Heroes ===

''"The Pact began four thousand years of friendship between men and children. In time, the First Men even put aside the gods they had brought with them, and took up the worship of the secret gods of the wood. The signing of the Pact ended the Dawn Age, and began the Age of Heroes."''

''- A Game of Thrones<ref>George R.R. Martin. (1996). ''A Game of Thrones - Bran VI''. Voyager Books.</ref>''

With the pact came some peace. Much land was ceded to the First Men by the Children of The Forest, and they were able to establish keeps and Petty Kingdoms.

The end of the Age of Heroes saw a decline in the number of warring kingdoms. Firstly, the Blackwoods were ejected from the great forest, leaving Houses Greenwood, Glover and Amber to war over the remaining woods. During this time, the Frost Kingdom also began to decline, with remnants only surviving in the eastern reaches of the North. Later, House Stark brought down the Flints, who had built their realm out of the Breakstone Hills.

Also at this time came the formation of The Watch and creation of The Wall. Bran The builder, regarded by many as one of The Kings of Winter from House Stark, sought out The Children of The Forest to help end the Long Night. It was said The Children provided black daggers to help fight against The Others and help Bran The Builder erect The Wall to end The Long Night.
