Years 651-700
Divine avatars begin manifesting on the Material Plane as competition reaches unprecedented intensity. Belron, Defender of the Just’s avatar leads Alorama forces in the Battle of Sacred Valleys. Goroth, Lord of Bloodlust’s avatar responds by manifesting during the Siege of Iron Gates. The presence of actual deities on the battlefield causes reality distortions that persist for decades. Mortal soldiers report temporal loops, gravity anomalies, and attacks that wound the soul directly.
