The Split Worlds’ Incident
The Split Worlds’ Incident occurred in both Gressol Providace and a portion of Caliaxo from an eldrin referred to as Akriboun. It is unknown what caused these events to occur, but witness reports claim that right before the split, there was an indescribable exchange of words before a bright, all-consuming void erupted from the ground. The rip in the space-time barrier spanned across Gressol Providace, Caliaxo, and the sea that divided the two. It hit three towns, two in Gressol Providace and a smaller village on the edge of Caliaxo, with a total death count of about 5,000 beings. Bahal, Deity of Chaos, made an appearance to control the rift and was later joined by the Cinereous Fangs to close up the rift. It took four days to keep the rift under control and later closed, and while it could’ve been a shorter amount of time if the other gods arrived, all knew that having all four gods in the same area would only worsen the situation. When the rift was finally sealed, all that remained was a deep ravine that seemed to glow a galactic, space-like color. There were also, surprisingly, a few beings on the edges of the ravine, beings that Bahal - who decided to stay to make sure nothing else bad happened unlike the Cinereous Fangs - identified as not of this reality. Most were severely injured, with a few of them dying, but the rest were perfectly fine, if not a little dazed and certainly distressed by the fact that they were in another reality. There were one or two humans, though the rest, completely different beings all together.
Akriboun, who had caused this incident, fled the scene immediately and has not been found since. They had been labeled a criminal, though the gods had no input regarding this fact. Some time after the ravine, dubbed the Hiatum, was born.
