In the year 914 AH, the single moon of Aetherius shattered into three distinct pieces. [[The Awakening]], as it would later be known, released the force of [[magick]] into the world.

The most significant result of the Awakening would not be discovered for at least a century, though. In the lands far to the east of Caanae, [[Moradeim|Moradeim's]] transformative power warped the creatures there and turned them into vicious beings that would collectively be known as the Horde. In the year 100 AA, the Horde descended upon the great city of Caanae and took it by complete surprise.
