daybreak, dawn, in the event
暁 centers on the moment light first appears: daybreak or dawn. The sense 'in the event' is a literary extension, imagining a future time when something comes to light or becomes clear.
暁 is the modern simplified form of 曉. The older form combines 日 (sun) with 堯, which likely contributed the sound and the idea of something high or prominent, suggesting the sun rising high at dawn.
The sun 日 rises beside 尭, a shape that suggests something tall. Picture the sun climbing high at daybreak, bringing the first light of dawn.
For ギョウ, imagine the dawn light growing stronger: 'grow' -> ギョウ, as the sun grows brighter at daybreak.
