The Isle-Wars was an on-going war that took place during The Legend of Spyro series.

Timeline

The Battle against the Dark Armies

When the Dark Master, Malefor, waged war against the Dragon race centuries ago, he built an army of Apes all the while teaching them to harness the life force of the Dragons, the Spirit Gems. During the war, Malefor was defeated and his spirit was imprisoned within the realm of Convexity. Despite this setback, the Apes were still able to carry out Malefor's orders, continuing their war against the Dragons.

Many years later, the Dark Armies, led by the Ape King Gaul, would attack the Dragon Temple, destroying all the dragon eggs hidden there, but stole Cynder's as part of Malefor’s plan to free himself from his prison.

Cynder

At a young age, Cynder was corrupted by Malefor's dark powers, forcing her to become his devoted servant. During the battle that would've granted the Dragons victory, Cynder appeared on the battlefield and used her strength and terrifying abilities to easily decimate the Dragon Guardians and their army. During the chaos, she captured three of the Dragon Guardians one by one, as they are needed to create keys used to unlock Malefor’s Convexity prison. However the Fire Guardian Ignitus escaped capture, hiding himself from Cynder and her forces. With the Guardians defeated, this allowed the Dark Armies to easily take over the islands, with Cynder spearheading their conquest. Years later, much of the world was conquered by the black dragon and her forces for Malefor.

Spyro's Intervention

The next purple dragon, Spyro, eventually came of age and was guided by Ignitus to free the islands of Cynder’s reign and the Guardians she had captured. All or most of Cynder's territories were lost due to Spyro. However before her defeat, Cynder was able to provide Malefor's spirit the means to escape his prison in Convexity.

Weeks after Cynder's defeat, the Apes attacked the Dragon Temple and badly damaged it during the surprise assault. The Guardians realized the Night of Eternal Darkness was upon them and that they were no longer safe at the temple. Ignitus instructed the Guardians to warn the other inhabitants of the Dark Master's return, and sent Spyro to look for The Chronicler.

The Dark Master's Return

When Malefor was resurrected and returned to the realm, he cursed the Apes for not being truly loyal to him, turning them into skeletons as payment for their service. He then created a new army of Grublins and summoned an earth golem to aid him in his conquest over the world. Only two members of the resistance returned to fight against him. Malefor was doing so well, as his army managed to reach the Dragon City of Warfang three years after Spyro and Cynder's disappearance, but was pushed back by the timely arrival of the two young dragons.
