=== Post-Catacendric Era ===
The Catacendre brought about much suffering to the Southern Scadrians as the climate decreased immensely in temperature, leading to them calling the Catacendre the "Ice Death"{{book ref|mb6|22}}, which brought about societal collapse.{{book ref|mb6|19}} At some point after this, a man calling himself the [[Sovereign]] came and granted them the [[Excisor| Excisors]], and knowledge of how to use them in order to create unsealed metalminds, which allowed them to make metalminds that could produce heat and save them from the cold.{{book ref|mb6|21}}
Further north, many settlements began to sprout up around Elendel Basin, with Elendel in particular becoming a major power. But this power would come to lead to them becoming very unpopular around the Basin, as they severely taxed the use of rivers needed for efficient trade, leading to a financial hegemony over the Outer Cities. This led to various Outer Cities suggesting a civil war against the tyrants in Elendel.{{file ref|New Ascendancy broadsheet.jpg|''The New Ascendancy'' broadsheet}}{{book ref|mb6|5}}
At some point, [[Trell (Trellism)| Trell]] began to become a threat to Harmony, encroaching upon the Scadrian system.{{book ref|mb6|28}}{{epigraph ref|sa4|28}} This led him to searching for a person who could act as his sword and fight against the threat, acting on his behalf.{{epigraph ref|sa4|29}} The one he choose for this role was [[Waxillium Ladrian]].
Alloy of Law begins 341 years after the [[Catacendre]] according to the broadsheets.{{expand}}
