Peregrin period

Definition

The Peregrin period is the label for the era immediately after the Eruption of Ecba and the destruction of the Halls of Orithena. In curated presentations along the Hylaean Way, it is shown as galleries devoted to notable Peregrins (including sets remembered as the Forty Lesser and the Seven Great).

Context and Usage

• Exhibits and reference entries use the title to frame the aftermath of Orithena’s fall and the survivor dispersals later described as the Peregrination.
• In current discussion, some speakers claim a long‑lived “Lineage” of scholars traces its beginnings to this period, founded by theors who had worked with Metekoranes. If true, this would place those traditions earlier than the Reconstitution and before the later formalization of maths, fraas, and suurs. These claims are presented as reported beliefs, not established fact.

Related Terms

• Peregrination — the post‑Orithena dispersals of surviving theors.
• Forty Lesser Peregrins; Seven Great Peregrins — named sets associated with the era in exhibits.
• Metekoranes — a revered figure linked by some accounts to founders active in this period.
• Saunt Cartas — invoked in contrast when noting that claims about the Lineage would predate Cartasian reforms.

Notes

• No calendar bounds, internal phases, or formal institutions of the era have been specified in the material available so far.
• The name functions primarily as a historical label used in exhibits and summaries to organize events following Orithena’s destruction; details beyond that framing remain sparse and sometimes intentionally ambiguous.
