The first being that whenever it is used, for whatever purpose, all low level buildings and crops will be destroyed. In doing so, you'll allow the city to rebuild with modern buildings, thus increasing the population above what it was once able to reach. The second is to move the game forward; by using the ability in Marahna, you'll raise part of the continent so the citizens can reach a monster lair. | |160||Entire map: low level houses and crops.||The earthquake ability only has two uses in the game.
