Dispersal to the New Periklynes

First Appearance and Context

The Dispersal to the New Periklynes is mentioned within a liturgical recounting of mathic history during the winding rite at Provener. In that account, the ancient Hylaean Anathem—once drawn upon in the Old Mathic Age—is said to have fallen into disuse during this Dispersal and the Praxic Age that followed; it was later revived, in new form, after the Terrible Events and the Reconstitution.

Description and Role

So far, the Dispersal is presented as a historical turning used to periodize changes in mathic practice. The text uses it to explain why earlier rites (notably the Hylaean Anathem) lapsed for a time. The term “New Periklynes” has not yet been explained in detail in the narrative; its nature and scope remain to be clarified by later context.

Relationships and Functions

• Precedes the Praxic Age in the canonical sequence referenced by the avout’s liturgy.
• Follows the practices associated with the Old Mathic Age, from which the revived rite later drew precedent.
• Connected to the fate of the Hylaean Anathem: the hymn fell out of use during this period and was revived only after the Terrible Events and the Reconstitution.

Current Status

The Dispersal to the New Periklynes is a completed historical event. Within the text so far, it functions as a period label invoked to explain shifts in practice and liturgy rather than as an ongoing process.
