The cataclysm claimed the lives of 90% of Warspatians. Not just Brothers & Sisters, but acolytes, and families. In a storied fashion, Zuko ordered Bruener Sharpspear to close the gates to the capital city of Zee'El as the world burned and broke around them. A shield emanated from the palace of Zee'El and protected the city, placing each member to sleep. A year later everyone awoke to find Zee'El in a forest instead of a wasteland, but tragically they also realized they had lost their homeland. Zuko disappeared for a time and Allizia and Bruener shared the mantle of Lord of Lightning. Bruener serving as King until Year 9 C.E. With Bruener’s folly, the Grimhadists took control of the House.
