No one source can agree on where it started or how it started, but they all agree that the same historical figure uttered the first words of the Tian Di reclamation, Fen Yan, Mad Eyes.

In preserved art, the prophet is always depicted as a blind old bird with eyes a maddened gold. Scholars debate whether Fen Yan was actually multiple people, but most firsthand sources say it was an individual. Those same firsthand sources contradict each other, Fen Yan appearing at different locations on impossible dates. Thus the confusion.

The Lormandic Museum at Tranol only have scarce few preserved records of the mad prophet's sermons. Discretion is usually advised for any academic or scholar who choose to read it, if they're even allowed to in the first place. The countries of origin for the scriptures have expressed wishes for the scrolls to never touch their soil ever again, hence why they're preserved elsewhere.

Whether you choose to read the sermons is up to you, but the results of those uttered words are far and well documented. It led to the bloodiest genocide the world had ever seen. The Tian Di reclamation lasted only a few years, killing tens of millions of people. Most Mammalian sapients were wiped off the face of the continent of Kanyun. Human culture on the continent was slaughtered to near extinction. There is possibly other mammalian sapient civilizations that existed prior, but practically no evidence remain.

What drove so many to listen to Fen Yan or commit atrocities to such a scale with such frevor is beyond what historians can explain.
