Eruption of Ecba

First Appearance and Context

An in‑world reference entry describes a survivor from the Halls of Orithena who lived through the eruption of Ecba. In a public exhibit along the Hylaean Way, a ceiling fresco depicts the eruption together with the destruction of the Halls of Orithena.

Roles/Actions and Affiliations

The eruption functions in histories as a marker event linked to the ruin of the Halls of Orithena and the ensuing dispersal of surviving theors later remembered as the Peregrination. The accounts cited do not provide mechanics, exact timing, or causes beyond identifying it as a catastrophic volcanic event.
