The City Age began after the Dark Age when the Last City was founded[1]. Survivors of the Collapse begin to appear, traveling to the sanctuary over which the dormant Traveler protects, and the City started to grow.[2][3][4]
Faction Wars
Power struggles between various political factions for the support of the City's refugee masses escalate into a series of violent conflicts that later came to be called the Faction Wars. Rezyl Azzir, a great leader and champion during those days helped unite The Risen into a cohesive fighting force, and formed the Guardians, gaining him further fame. Together they ended the bloodshed before the City is torn apart by civil war and focus on the new encroaching threat: the Fallen Houses[5]. The Consensus, a representative body through which the factions could pursue their agendas peacefully, is subsequently formed to jointly govern the City with the Speaker at the head[6][4].
Shortly after the civil war the New Monarchy, a staunchly pro-City faction, forms to protect the City from all threats both without and within[7]. Also during this time[4] the first Titans construct and defend the City's walls[8].
Early City Age
The Battle of the Six Fronts became first major attack weathered by the City soon after the Faction Wars. Four orders of Titans defended six different approaches against an overwhelming enemy force, led by the Iron Lords. None of the orders faltered, and what could have been a disastrous defeat became instead a decisive victory[9].
The legendary Titan and Exo Saint-14 rallied an army of Guardians to attack the Fallen surrounding the Last City following Six Fronts. His campaign is successful and Fallen attacks on the City temporarily abate. During the campaign, he personally fights and kills Solkis, Devil Kell.
Toland, the Shattered studies the Darkness and eventually goes mad, leaving the City in Exile.[10]
