In the [[Auroran Imperial War]], [[Noroist Axdel]] constructed and deployed an orbital bombardment weapon named [[Kevatuul (Satellite)|Kevatuul]] after a [[Kozam]] deity of the night sky. It was intended as a first strike system to attack military bases and fleets in case of a [[Great Morstaybishlia|Morstaybishlian]] invasion of Axdel. However, in 1975, three Emberite intelligence agents were discovered attempting to sabotage the weapon. The agents were mistaken for [[Ethalria|Ethalrians]], which led to an overzealous commanding officer having Kevatuul fire 6 missiles at Ribenstadt and its surrounding installations. The effect of this was devastating, as the warheads detonated in an airburst fashion to maximise their destructive effect. Ribenstadt was devastated, and hundreds of thousands of civilians and soldiers alike were killed.
As a result of this event, a cease-fire was promptly established and talks between the nations in the AIW began, with the Weyrciff Pact being signed later that year. Kevatuul was deorbited, breaking apart over the southern ocean where some debris was recovered
