====The Day of Dead Suns (262)====
The court took on a quest to evacuate a civilization from their homeworld. While moving out of the local gravity well, Sihi was struck by the shockwave of the star going supernova. The station and Flotilla were scattered from each other, though only suffered superficial damage as they had already entered faster than light travel by the time the shockwave hit. La Fae and avalon were largely intact, and Sihi was restored to full operations within a week, but numerous records, historical documents, and technical documents were corrupted and had to be rebuilt from memory. Among the data that was lost, the coordinates gained from “The Light” and the believed location of the grail were lost. It was agreed, that while valerous, and in the tradition of the court, actions and quests to save a civilization from a dieing world would be barred from here on out if it put Sihi itself at risk.

===The Era of the Path Less Taken (150 - 100)===
A change in leadership shifted the Starlit Court's focus from desperately searching for signs of “The Light” or Grail to recovering tech, growing the economy. The goal of this shift was to increase the Court's odds of survival long term, and to establish a widespread enough legend that people would come to us with information about Grail. An emphasis was placed on great deeds, acts of glory, and spreading the Court's reputation across the stars, so that the quest for the Grail would be known to many, and that perhaps someone would come forth with valuable information in exchange for the Court's services. This era was one of great heroes and mighty accomplishments, with Knights and commoners alike seeking to earn glory and renown for themselves, and the Starlit court. Camlan as we know it today is largely built during this time period, growing from an urban center to a sprawling metropolis, and numerous technologies are rediscovered and innovated apon.
