had become
| Morphological Notes | Verb, pluperfect active indicative, 3rd person singular; denotes a past completed becoming with resultant state. |
| Rendering Rationale | The pluperfect indicative expresses a completed transition into a new state with continuing results in past time. "Had become" preserves the core sense of coming into being or transition while reflecting the pluperfect aspect. |
