• Crimson Denizens learn how to feel human emotions and become aware of the existence of the Human World, adjacent to their own.

• A certain Crimson Lord devised the "Rift Crossing" (狭間渡り, Hazama Watari) technique, and a group of Denizens were able to cross to the Human World from the Crimson Realm and began stealing Power of Existence.

• A human poet, who had heard from the Denizens about their home world, named it the "Crimson Realm" (紅世, Guze).

• Due to Distortions (世界の歪み, Sekai no Yugami, lit. "Distortion of the World") expanding, the surface of the boundary between the two worlds begins to fall into ruins, and there is an increasing number of Denizens moving between the two worlds who have become missing.

• A certain Crimson Lord became aware of the expanding distortion in the surface of the boundary and spread to the other Denizens their hypothesis of the "Great Calamity" (大災厄, Dai-saiyaku).

• The Denizens with a sense of the impending crisis of the Great Calamity began exploring a method in which to stop the Denizens who continued to disturb the balance of the world. After much trial-and-error for several hundred years, a system was developed for producing Flame Haze. A great number of Lords formed contracts with humans, giving birth to the oldest Flame Haze (among them, "Mobilizer of Ceremonial Equipment" Khamsin Nbh'w and "Weaver of Coffins" Tis).

At the end of the war, the secret spell "Eternal Pitfall (久遠の陥穽, Kuon no Kansei) was used on "Snake of the Festival", and he was banished to the rift in the world. Thereafter, having lost their master, the Trinity (later Bal Masqué) voluntarily ceased large-scale fighting.
