The Great Calamity was an event remembered in the legends of the Keshiri species on the planet Kesh. The Calamity was caused by a massive conflict between the Protectors and the Destructors, resulting in the reshaping of the very surface of the world. The legends were based on Keshiri memories of an ancient conflict between Jedi and Dark Jedi who had become stranded on Kesh following the Hundred-Year Darkness.
They fought a fierce struggle which devastated large areas of Kesh's surface and terrorized the Keshiri natives. Eventually, the two warring factions decided to make peace and the Dark Jedi agreed to seal their "great weapon." These Force-users then migrated to the polar continent of Eshkrene in the planet's South Pole where they established a new neutral Force order which became known as "the Doomed."
