Year of Divinity's Fall
"Of course the Year looms large in our minds, even against the backdrop of the Reckoning; why wouldn't it? In one year, fifteen gods killed each other, and the collateral damage rivalled the rest of the Reckoning put together."
The Year of Divinity's Fall was the last year of the Reckoning. It was when the god-battles reached their zenith and the gods' Divinity was finally depleted, causing the permanent death of their physical bodies and the reduction of their god-spirits to vestigial consciousnesses. It is the period of the Reckoning that is best remembered and most often mythologized.
Divinity's Fall was the climax and collapse of the Reckoning. It began with the Breaking of Lysithea, one of the single largest and most impactful battles of the Reckoning. This battle---and An'liceth's sacrifice within it---kicked off a string of battles so brutal that the gods and millions of their followers fell in the span of months.
Those battles are chronicled here.
The Myths and Legends of Divinity
The Year of Divinity's Fall is the best recorded period of the Reckoning; in fact, most modern Emaxians, save historians, theologians, and intellectuals, think solely of the Year when they think of the Reckoning. The common Emaxian believes that the Reckoning began with An'liceth's death and ended with Yamma and Narvox's deaths, with the Obsidian Lords breaking free of Accorion only just before the Breaking of Lysithea.The Death of the Gods
The Year of Divinity's Fall began with An'liceth's death at the Breaking of Lysithea and ended with Yamma and Narvox's deaths at the Final Retribution. Every god died in this year (although it technically only lasted seven months). Their deaths are chronicled accordingly, alongside the legends and myths that accompany them today.
