* '''E7-223:''' [[Yurai]] opens the ''kamiyama'' ('''紙山''', lit. ''paper mountain''), a large office complex equipped with the latest technology and equipment, meant to process paperwork and information for all activities in all youkai towns.
* '''E7-289: The New Science movement:''' The [[Scientific Community]] begins new research avenues, with the explicit intent of selling the fruit of their research and development.
* '''E7-289, Ultima: Project Titan:''' The Genetic Technology Science Team in [[Arnett]] launches ''Project Titan'', researching genetic manipulation and gene editing. They are believed to have created various giant versions of common, small animals, such as the [[giant spidertarantula]]. These animals were originally developed for the [[Maze Military]], but the project was turned down by military leadership.
* '''E7-290, Hexema: Project Mana, phase 1:''' The Theoretical Physics Science Team, then located in [[Roazon]], launches ''Project Mana'', for the purpose of researching the exact nature of magic and magical creatures.
** Scientists behind Project Mana began by offering rewards, in cash or gifts, to various people (mostly [[youkai]]) in exchange for answers to questionnaires and various, non-invasive tests and examinations.
* '''E7-398: Project Lambda:''' The Theoretical Physics Science Team in Roazon starts Project Lambda, an initiative to improve personal protection and body armor technology with the introduction of the world's first suit of powered armor. The initial phases of the project required the team to study new physical phenomenons which could, in theory, allow specific metal alloys to become harder and more resilient to damage when an electric charge is applied to them.
** Funding issues and poor management resulted in the project being relegated to a secondary priority. By E7-400, only three people were still officially on the Lambda team.

An estimated 50 Larceners, heavily armed and armored, and equipped with large bags, invaded the town and performed synchronized acts of robbery across every single shop, facility, and outlet with any kind of cash register.
** The size of the Military is dramatically increased, from 7 companies to 12, and is given its current organization of 6 RF companies, 4 PF companies, and the remaining two companies forming Wight's Elite Battalion.
** "Harassment patrols" of the Weil era are re-established, and although soldiers are explicitly told to avoid entering the Northeastern Zone, they are once again tasked with searching for activist groups, caravans, couriers, and other people affiliated or protected by activist fighters, and to engage in combat with them on sight.
