Igid Rabi-i is a remote island domain both in the physical sense and in the sense of being an Island of Terror. It is of subtropical climate with a constant stream of western winds carried in by the ocean. Inhabitants of Igid Rabi-i refer to themselves as Igiran, "Folks of Night's Edge". Save for the independent mountain tribes to the east, the domain is ruled by the clergy of Matherion, a religion the colonizers and conquerors from the Holy Empire brought with them. Arcapatos Miguel Agustin is the leader of these clergy. Although there is a Colonial Council to make laws, they all most go through Agustin for ratification. Much of the old ways have deliberately been wiped away by the followers of Matherion.[2]
Tagudin is the largest city in Igid Rabi-i (some 8,000 people). It is also home to the main temple to Matherion, the Vestibulo. At Ibaloi, the plateau nestled away in the mountains to the east, the tribes meet to deal with the chaos the colonists have brought. They have established the Council of Elders there in order to act when collective action is needed.[2]

- 751 BC June Arcapatos Miguel Agustin and his entourage of colonists from the Holy Empire begin their journey to Igid Rabi-i.[5]
- 752 BC May 1st Arcapatos Miguel Agustin formally proclaims Igid Rabi-i a colony of the Holy Empire.[6]
- 752 BC September The Vestibulo] is erected over the remains of the groves held sacred by the old religion of Igid Rabi-i. The Diviner of the Bay portents ill fortunes for those who abandon the old faith before seemingly committing suicide.[7]
- 753 BC Late Year After trying to bribe, cajole, and intimidate the Bacani Clan for the Cloth of Matherion, Arcapatos Miguel Agustin orders the mass murder of the Bacani Clan and retrieval of the cloth. The Cloth is brought back to the Vestibulo. However a typhoon hits Tagudin. In the chaos that follows, the Cloth of Matherion is mysteriously lost. Meanwhile, the Diviner's prophecy comes true as Igid Rabi-i has been grabbed by some dark power and taken to the Land of Dread Night.[3]
