Great Eastern Shake

The Great Eastern Shake was a sudden, powerful earthquake that happened in the year 5366. It damaged many of Giusburg's stone buildings, killing many, and the resulting three-meter tsunami that swept over the city and countryside led to thousands of more deaths.

The Great Eastern Shake was responsible for the sealing of the Giusburg Catacombs, ending the practice of burying the Libidine Dynasty's deceased rulers there. Instead, future rulers were buried in the above-ground Giusburg Necropolis, not knowing that all the tombs of the kings held false bodies.
