Dawn is the name given to a wave of migration from the Western Dantrian Civilization to the central and eastern parts of the Continent that happened in the course of several centuries, beginning in the middle of the first revolution. Travelers would cross the arid planes of Nari into what later would become Gantolia and Yammoe.

The Dawn is contrasted to the New Dawn, a migration wave from Central Dantria that occurred in the second half of the second revolution across the Ouna desert.
