The Year The Sun Rose In The North Every Morning

The remarkable occurrence known as The Year The Sun Rose In The North Every Morning, today reckoned as 555ai, was a celestial anomaly where the sun rose consistently in the north for the year, which held profound significance in various cultures.
It was viewed as an auspicious event by some, including Kleopatra II Banos, Queen of Banor. Leveraging this perceived cosmic alignment as a sign of favor for Numiel's cause, Queen Kleopatra II declared the Second Banor Invasion of Calabia. However, despite the perceived auspiciousness, the invasion ultimately met with failure within the same year, a setback for Banor's ambitions.
The impact of this celestial anomaly persisted in cultural memory, so much so that until the Inundation, certain cultures used this year as a pivotal reference point in their calendars, dating years with reference to this one, with the Year The Sun Rose In The North Every Morning being the year 0 (in both directions). If you encounter a reference to a year "ante solemborealis" (ASB) or "post solemborealis" (PSB), it is that many years before or after (respectively) this year.
