Finding Leia's message is the inciting incident for Luke's Heroes Journey, yes. But the Republic turning into the Empire and the fall of the Jedi Order is the Everything Changed When event.Hmm. Bringing it somewhat back to the D&D topic... Greyhawk, and to some extent Forgotten Realms, are the Boomer settings. Greyhawk's been frozen in amber, much like the good old days. The Forgotten Realms is the opposite, with one RSE after another to the point where they all merge into a blur. Eberron is the Millennial setting, where everything was fine* until the Last War started, and with a drop of Gen Z now that the War is ended and things might be rebuilding, although the War did a lot of damage, to the point of destroying an entire nation. And Dark Sun would be the Gen X setting, where everything is bleak, and the rulers of the world are draining it of its life for their own purposes without regard for anyone else.* Everything was not, in fact, fine.[ATTACH=full]376205[/ATTACH]</blockquote>
