For more details on each case, see the timeline starting on the next page.

Completion of Landfill Site
The beginning is still a big change.（Corebook P144）

The crash of the space colony Azrael. Although no major destruction occurred, fuel leaks and scattered debris caused serious marine pollution in Osaka Bay.

Safer Environment, one of the largest environmental protection companies, has achieved a miraculous cleanup of the ocean in dealing with this problem. The mainland and the international community recognize the achievement and allow the company to participate in a reclamation project in the waters near the colony.

Looking at the international circumstances surrounding Azrael, there is no way that the reclaimed land would be the territory of a specific nation. The rights to the reclaimed land effectively belonged to the company that reclaimed it.

Participating companies compete to reclaim land around the colony, expand the reclaimed area by name, and build facilities. Safer Environment also expanded its business with a focus on resource processing facilities.

When the facilities of various companies began to dot the reclaimed land, countless research institutes began to sprout in Azrael, which had become a special research zone.

At the same time, the cults of the manifested gods started to appear.

The Birth of Shinmachi Academy
The largest facility built on Safer Environmental's land is the "Shinmamashi Research Institute," a joint research facility by several companies and universities.

It is still an important research facility that produces many research results.

At the same time, the Ishtar cult took over the reclaimed land without permission.

Safer Environment, as the landowner, ordered the cult to leave, but the Institute of Divine and Demonic Studies protected the cult as a research subject. Unable to go against the wishes of the leaseholders, the landowners tacitly approved the cult.

In view of later trends, the Institute of Divine and Demonic Research was probably already in collusion with or a puppet of the Temple of Ishtar at this time.

Soon after, the outer wall area and the paradise area were developed, and the open/closed mirror area became the airport. The center of business becomes concentrated in the upper part of the colony, and Safer Environmental moved its branch office to the upper level of the Outer Wall District.

This company's influence in the landfill declined.

Meanwhile, the Institute of Divine and Demonic Research also decided to move to the upper level of the Outer Wall District.

The Order of Ishtar also moved its main temple to the Paradise District.

However, problems arose regarding the remaining facilities.

Safer Environment demanded that the facility be dismantled, while the Institute for Divine and Demonic Research refused to do so due to budgetary concerns. The friction between the two sides was about to be taken to an international court, but there was an unexpected solution.

It was decided to convert the building into an educational facility for the growing number of residents.

The "Shinmachi Academy," which took the name of the institute, was born.

Safer Environment Downfall
As the population grew, the school and its surroundings were also revitalized.

In the midst of this, the Order of Ishtar begins to build a large temple.

The Safer Environment group once again ordered the cult to leave the area, and violent measures were also taken by the private army group Blue Keep.

A large scale war ensues, but comes to an end in just one week.

The relocated Institute of Divine and Demonic Research announced that the former cleansing of the oceans was not done by Safer Environment, but was caused by gods and faeries. This resulted in the company losing all of its voice.

The war could not continue, and peace was unavoidably made.

The whole process was probably planned by the Ishtar cult. The Great Temple was built and the Order became the largest force around.

Ecstasy Alliance
The Twilight District was devastated, the Harbor District was ravaged, the residents moved into the colony, and the wealthy moved their bases upward and upward. The current segregation is naturally taking place. Security and public morals in the area were disturbed.

In the midst of this situation, the leading figures of the entertainment industry gathered around the Temple of Ishtar and formed the "Ecstasy Alliance". Security was improved and the city was transformed into a tourist city.

Public morals deteriorated even more, though.

All-Out War
With the successful transformation of the city into a tourist city, the Ecstasy Alliance is growing stronger.

Yaeke (Corebook P170) approached the Anti Magic League and supported terrorist activities. This was joined by Safer Environment, which clashed with the Ecstasy Alliance.

A war where economic power, influence and military force collide.

Every organization and establishment was required to belong to one of the two forces. Countless businesses withdrew, all establishments ended up belonging to the Ecstasy Alliance, and criminal organizations and mercenaries became proxy warriors.

After more than a year of warfare, the Ecstasy Alliance was victorious.

Safer Environment left the blue keep and withdrew from the lower level. The Anti Magic League also went into hiding. However, the war between the criminal organizations continued for a long time after that, requiring eight years to settle.

Ushi-Oni Incident
Five years ago, a powerful bull demon came from the sea.

It smashed through the transportation corridor, indiscriminately destroying neighborhoods and finally rampaging to the end of Kamimachi Street.

The bull demon is designated as a Greater Demon and is confronted by hunters and armed guards, but the situation results in numerous casualties.

It was eventually defeated by a single hunter, but the damage was extensive.

In the aftermath of this situation, there was almost no damage to the Harbor District, and while some question the demise of the famous Elderblood family of Sanrai, the citizens are too busy suffering or enjoying their days.

The damage caused by the destructive battle is already gone from the streets.

There are also traces of past events.

People who seek pleasure have no time to look back on the past.
