Fury of a Burning Sky

The Fury of a Burning Sky is an unexplained anomaly that has occurred in several places throughout history. It is unknown what causes the anomaly to occur, though several theories have stemmed up about it. The actual effect of the anomaly is the sky changing from blue, to red, to orange, to lava like. Once the sky has reached the lava like appearance, red lightning will begin to strike down on the land below the area. This lightning is extremely deadly, and is capable of tearing apart buildings, and even the ground itself. The event only lasts about 15 minutes, and once its over the sky goes back to normal.
==Known Cases==
There have been several sightings of the anomaly over the years, as well as multiple places that appear to have suffered from the anomaly.
The first known case of the event was in southern Varrenholm in 80 AE. The sky changed over the ocean south of Jados, east of Varrenholm; and stretched out to the coastline. Jados was somehow unaffected by the event, but Varrenholm wasn't so lucky. An Iysk mining outpost under the island of Kal'kreath suffered severe cave-ins, and an old Llysovian trading colony was completely decimated. The damage to the surface eventually fixed itself, as the only land damaged was made of sand.
The second known case occurred over the island of Myvatel at the very end of 94 AE. The city on the southern end of the island suffered heavy damage, with fatalities estimated to be around 30%. This was the most severe case of the anomaly noted.
Due to the location of the first sighting, it is believed that the original Siphon may have been destroyed by this anomaly centuries ago.
A ruined city was found in northeastern Animadev, and the surrounding landscape was decimated, and looked identical to other victims of this anomaly.
==Cause==
The cause of the anomaly is unknown, but there are multiple theories that have arisen.
The most common theory is a simple "punishment from the gods" type of thing.
The most supported theory is that it occurs in an area where the ZenoVadaXicci stone existed for an extended period of time. This theory would support all of the known sightings, and therefor is considered the most credible.
Another popular theory stems back to old stories of Tethris, who has been called the "God of Disaster." Because Tethris had been described to appear in the Overworld through an identical means to the anomaly, it is suspected that he initiates it with his own power. This theory has mostly been shrugged off, as Tethris has supposedly been dead for over 1000 years.
