Sundering

The Sundering, was a cataclysmic event that occured on the planet Aeon some 5,000 BC, on the continent of Metis. It was caused by the largest supervolcanic eruption in 50 million years, and led to the utter destruction of Tazaea, the origins of the Human species and the first kingdom. The University of Rhodeas has estimated that the total amount of material released in the eruption was about 4,200 km3 of ignimbrite that flowed over the ground, and approximately 1,500 km3 that fell as ash mostly to the west. However, based on the new method (crystal concentration and exponential). The pyroclastic flows of the eruption destroyed an area of least 40,000 km2, with ash deposits as thick as 800 m by the main vent. The event also caused a projected 50m high tsunami wave, which devastated the coast of Inachus and the island chains in Oceanus.
