Era beginning/end
After sonar technology improved from its earliest form and the northern hemisphere was mapped better than ever before, a Lanarian explorer named Kerlon set his sights to the south. He bravely led an expedition across the equator, a journey that had inevitably ended in death before. Although one of his ships was still lost to a grekk, the others landed in Vancorra and founded a settlement that would become the city of Binzat. They were quickly noticed by the local inhabitants, and thus occurred the first contact between Lanarians and Vancorrans (later known as Vincarans).
