In the summer of 568 the first rifts between the material plane and Manywhere opened in and around what was then the Midiri city of Astolth, causing damage and death on a massive scale. The rifts continued opening at a frightening rate, several per week, into the spring of 570, slowing over the course of decades to their current, more manageable rate. The structural damage caused by the rifts and the emergence of aether, combined with the incursion of hordes of proteans into Midiri cities and countryside alike, led to the total collapse of the kingdom and abandonment of the region within four years.

Sarpor's conversion to a republic
Political eventThe young Republic arose not twenty years ago through a nearly bloodless revolution. Upon his father’s death, the final emperor Vothis II Rakkad issued a decree that would, nominally at least, curtail his power and distribute it between elected representatives from each city and town. Each has influence proportional to the approximate number of citizens they represent. It has not escaped international notice that the chosen representatives are wealthy, usually noble, and often indebted to the emperor, or that this development came after massive pressure for more local power in the reaches of the Empire; nevertheless, Vothis succeeded in calming the protests without actually sacrificing much of his influence.
