Notable events

In 818 AS, the Nomads launched a full scale invasion while The Order were under attack by Guild Core forces. Their objective was, it seems, the destruction of The Order. Against all odds, they fought with bravery the invaders.

During the Battle for Minor, the Isis was destroyed and the ground batteries silenced by Nomad bombardments. The strikes were directed at fault lines along the planet's surface. The bombardment destroyed the thin crust at those lines, letting the latent magma flow through multiple places. The process was repeated all along the planet, and became mostly covered by lava flows.

It would appear the Order had neither enough time to stage an evacuation nor the ressources, so it is believed that most of the population died in the underground bunkers, either due to the bombardments or the lava flows that followed. It is estimated that close to one million people have died.

The few that managed to escape, either fighters that fled during the attack or transports that weren't at Toledo, went to the newly discovered jump-hole to Omicron Zeta to try and rebuild their lives.
