This part of the game's history, along with the servers, has come to a climactic end as of midnight (PST) of November 11th, 2012. The climax, a cinematic video of the destruction called End of an Era, was launched just after the servers went down. The Eorzeans believe the land is always shifting from periods of abundance followed by catastrophes that bring scarcity, and sometimes destroy entire civilizations. These periods are know as the Astral (abundance) and Umbral (scarcity) eras. Recently featured: Final Fantasy Tactics Advance - Dressphere - Noel Kreiss - Terra - Ragnarok - Maenad
