The Greed Nivel appears in Barenae, looking for an artifact of great power and value. With a mere flick of its fingers, most of the population is slain and their souls are vanished and nowhere to be seen. Needing to attend more important matters, Greed left behind three of its Scions to seek the relic.

The Mending & The Fourth Pulse
Geological / environmental eventAs the Redeemer grows unstable and the structure of Barenae is at the brink of collapse, a signal of help is sent.

The Fifth Pulse
Geological / environmental eventAs the weather has gotten gradually colder through the previous 20 years, the light of the Redeemer retracts slowly during the early hours of the morning, only to release a new Pulse, which lowers the temperature several degrees, forcing all around Barenae to adapt and, in the most extreme cases, even try to seek heat in the caves of old.

The foundations for Etaria are built without any complications. -

The Spectacle Horizon and The Sixth Pulse
Metaphysical / Paranormal eventThe Megevan ready their prototype of portal to control dimensional travel. The first opening of the portal conveys the Continuum into Barenae, which compels The Redeemer to pulsate and repel its advance. The portal allows the people of Barenae to enter into contact with others, as a way to look for a way to end their travels, and discover new cultures and worlds to learn from in the way. Many other portals are opened all across the Megevan Splinters, under the careful eye of the Coalition.

The Coalition poses a hard fight but ends up dissolved from the inside and prohibited. The completion of the invasion of the Inner Sections and many other territories indicates the beginning of a reign of strength and authoritarian regimes. -
