Zarina's prophecy

When Zarina took power from her parent and ended the attempted Alikhanov revolution, she made the following prophecy, a curse on the Al-Harir Dynasty.

When the new millenia dawns, and the sun and moon meet—

The song of Birds will unravel the country of spider silk,

And the Al-Harir Dynasty will fall to dark.

It’s worth noting that the comic begins on New Year’s Eve 1997, wintertime.

This prophecy is the reason that Bird religion is banned from Dawlat Al-Harir and immigration of birdfolk is restricted, because the Al Harir dynasty wishes to prevent the prophecy from ever eventuating.
