II personally do not think it is gravity related, although most of its effects suggest so. The description we received from Geera was that the mysterious power of Disaster allows King to draw forth the natural powers of the tree Chastiefol was made off.

So I believe that Disaster is way more complex than that. I believe it to be probability manipulation. If this were a role play game at a console I would say it has the ability to increase the "luck" factor of the individual or the group. Everything has a hidden potential -both good and bad. King is able to draw this out with Disaster. He can draw forth the many shapes of Chastiefol but also extremely increase the likelihood of a rheumatic attack with Cain.

This is purely an assumption of course but it could explain why it is so "disastrous", so to speak. Because it messes with the likelyhood of things happening, no matter how impossible they seem. It might also allow him to levitate and telecinetically move objects around.
