The Great Twilight (
The plan is succeeded by Operation Jormungandr.
Preparation
First known preparations for the Great Twilight date back to approximately S.400, after Emperor Hector Reise Arnor I recaptured Heimdallr from the Dark Dragon Zoro-Agruga. Before 검은 알베리히, leader of the Gnomes, cut ties with Roselia and the Hexen Clan, he shared a prediction about the end of the world with her and the then-Crown Prince.
검은 알베리히 stole the knowledge of the alchemists from Crossbell and handed them to the mages of Erebonia to stimulate the development of Magic Knights. He also collected data from weapons he has donated to jaeger corps, planned the Thirteen Factories for Ouroboros, gathered the best students of C. Epstein, and gained control of 라인폴트 그룹.
It is unknown how much progress was made during this time period, and the plan in its current form is known to have been conceived around S.1186, when 길리아스 오스본 began working with 검은 알베리히. To secure the resources necessary to carry out the plan, 검은 알베리히 as Franz Lughman married 이리나 라인폴트 and fathered 알리사 라인폴트. After his use for the Reinfords was fulfilled, he faked his own death at the hands of 샤론 클루거. For the next twenty years, 검은 알베리히 would provide Osborne with tools necessary to further the plan, including the homunculi 밀리엄 오라이온 and 알티나 오라이온.
Observations by the Church
The Septian Church noticed small-scale, hardly noticeable disturbances in the septium veins coming from Erebonia. The Church decided to dispatch 토마스 라이샌더 and Barkhorn to investigate the matter. After the Orbal Shutdown Phenomenon in Liberl, the Azure-Zero Project in Crossbell, and the October Campaign in Erebonia, the disturbances grew worse with each event.
When Erebonia annexed Crossbell and North Ambria, the disturbances reached a point where it would spawn Magic Knights and cryptids heralding from Erebonia proper in Crossbell, and where Pleroma Grass native to Crossbell started to grow in Erebonia proper.
Ouroboros' support
Following Osborne's "takeover" of the Phantasmal Blaze Plan in S.1204, the seven Anguis of Ouroboros voted on whether to continue with the plan as is, or to instead focus on completing the Great Twilight with Osborne and the Gnomes. The vote was 6-1, with only the Second Anguis, 비타 클로틸드, choosing to decline. As a result, despite being the leader of the Phantasmal Blaze Plan, Clotilde did not participate in the Great Twilight.
F. 노바르티스, the Sixth Anguis, provided the participating members of Ouroboros with three Gordias-class archaisms. These three were the Aion Type-α II, Aion Type-β II, and Aion Type-γ II.
Beginning of the Twilight
Following the revival of Zoro-Agruga, and the hyper-stimulation of the septium veins, 검은 알베리히 and Osborne, along with Ouroboros, were able to rouse the Nameless One from its slumber deep underneath Karel Imperial Villa. This resulted in the manifestation of the Gral of Erebos, which blanketed the entirety of the Heimdallr area in darkness, and caused multiple cryptids to spawn in the streets. At the bottom layer of the Gral, 밀리엄 오라이온 suffered fatal damage at the hands of the Nameless One, causing her soul to sublimate into the Sword of the End. Using this sword, Valimar slew the Nameless One, unleashing the curse upon the land, starting the Great Twilight.
