The sinking of the M/V Biternion occurred 12.XIII.1735 in the northern waters of Shire Sea, approximately 12 nautical miles outside the Natopian reserve zone from Port Nider. The Shirerithian-flagged luxury liner was carrying 2,548 individuals, including 1,940 crew and staff members. Most of the passengers attended the annual Congress of the Rics which was being held on the ship. Most of these attendees were also members of the Order of the Holy Lakes.
At 03:37 local time, the Biterion experienced a sudden impact on its starboard side. The ship began to list heavily to starboard and sank within 23 minutes of the initial impact. Only 210 people survived, most of them being crew who were awake during the impact.
