Astronomical Alignment

The Astronomical Alignment is a very rare event, happening only every 800 years. It is the moment, when all planets of the Britannian Solar System, including Britannia, and the two moons Trammel and Felucca, are all aligned in one straight line to the sun. It is said that this weakens the borders between the planes in a strong way.

In Ultima VII, the Astronomical Alignment played a major role. It was that moment, when the Black Gate would start working, allowing the Guardian to enter Britannia. Thankfully, the gate was destroyed just in time to prevents this from happening.
