=== Fourth Sending of Darkness ===
* See also [[Soul Crystals]]
* Thousands of years later, after the Olthoi drove the Empyrean off of the planet,during a digging by the [[Gelidites]], a young mage named [[Frisirth]] found a beautiful, sparkling crystal. The locals called it “Great Work”. A human expedition slaughtered the Gelidites, and destroyed their “Great Work.” As the malignant crystal shattered, darkness swallowed the center of the room, and a faint, eager chuckle was heard. <ref name="A Brief History for Travelers">2000/11 - [[Should the Stars Fall/The Child of Daralet--Leafcull to Frostfell, PY 11 / (November to December, 2000)]]</ref>
* Isparians were unwittingly duped into freeing [[Bael'Zharon]] from his crystal prison. Some sought to prevent the last piece of the prison -- the [[Shard of the Herald]] -- from being destroyed, but they were defeated. An Isparian monarch named Vidorian, who had sworn allegiance to the Hopeslayer, accompanied two of Bael'Zharon's generals and assaulted the defenders below the [[Ithaenc Cathedral]]. They broke through the defensive lines and shattered the crystal. Thus in Portal Year 11 began the [[Fourth Sending of Darkness]]. The Shadows attacked from all sides, the Hopeslayer roamed the land, and the rivers ran red. <ref name="Pack Bael'Zharon">2004/04 - [[On Bended Knee]] - [[Pack Bael'Zharon]]</ref>
* In the month of Frostfell, P.Y. 11, a desperate alliance formed between [[Asheron]], the [[Virindi]], the undead [[Dericost]], a rogue follower of Bael'Zharon named [[Isin Dule]], and the Isparians. Bael'Zharon was driven off of this plane of existence... but he was not destroyed.<ref name="Pack Bael'Zharon">2004/04 - [[On Bended Knee]] - [[Pack Bael'Zharon]]</ref>
