The glyphs appear to be predicting an incoming eclipse.
— Slone

The Eclipse is a Lore event prophesied during Chapter 4: Season 3 and occurring during Chapter 4: Season 4. This phenomenon is caused by the psionic powers of the time-traveling vampire Kado Thorne.

In Reality Zero, Kado Thorne's psionic powers are able to trigger Eclipses despite them being impossible, as both the Sun and Moon within Asteria were fake.[1][2]

In-Game during the day, the Eclipse was only visible at 9AM-11AM. During the night, the red moon is always visible.

History[]

Eons Ago[]

The Eclipse seems to have occured before - eons ago, during the era of The Ancients, where they made The Apparatus in order to predict the incoming Eclipse and the arrival of Kado Thorne.

Chapter 4: Season 3[]

Doctor Slone and the Explorers ventured into the ruins of The Ancients, studied the glyphs, and repaired The Apparatus.

The glyphs predicted an incoming Eclipse -although astrological data states this to be impossible.[1] However, this was supported by The Apparatus, which despite initial beliefs, turned out not to be a telescope - but rather a stellar projector. Murals found at Rumble Ruins predicting the arrival of someone tied with The Eclipse attested this as well.

Chapter 4: Season 4[]

The vampire Kado Thorne, leader of Eclipse, arrived on the Island and founded various hotel complexes there, all while draining the Island's wealth and going back in time to find objects to add to his collection.

During Fortnitemares 2023, after the Heist Crew's first attempt to steal his Time Machine, Kado Thorne transformed into his Revenant form, which closely resembled the person depicted in Rumble Ruins' murals. At the same time, a Solar Eclipse and a permanent Super Blood Moon took place: The Eclipse began.
