In the 4th century of the First Epoch, the foremost collection of history began under Ermikel the Balance. The work of recording history continues with his successors, the Loremasters of Ermikel. They collect the varying histories scattered across Bal-Kriav and beyond to other worlds and systems. Collectively called the Ermikel Codices, the history of these tome is pretty accurate. Many consider them an unbiased account of what has transpired over the last 16,000 years.
The Ermikel Codices are continually being updated by new discoveries and bits of lore gathered from priestly communes with Higher Powers or a sorcerer's dealings with ancient beings of faraway worlds. Such lore ends up in the great edifice Nuciregmas, largest store of historical evidence and documents on Bal-Kriav.
