Ubent, Perdan and Caligus join the northern war

Eleador was at its prime now consisting of 14 regions it was quite a powerful and wealth realm. Being backed up by Sirion forces theypersued the death of Oligarch.

Oligarch’s request for aid was no longer ignored. However, it wasn’t only heard by Perdan. A vast army considering of Perdanese, Ubentians and Caligus troops marched north together across the river the southern alliance marched north. Fallanguard was left to fend off Itorunt in the south. It is quite likely that Eleador and Sirionite troops knew this attack was coming but they encountered the massive force of the southern alliance and Sirionite/Eleador frontlines crumbled. All key locations were overrun by the troops from the southern alliance. With the might of the southern alliance forces Rancangua abandoned their allies Sirion Empire and Eleador and signed peace with Oligarch. This left Sirion and Eleador on their backheals. However, some help did come in some way or form.

Ibladesh declare war on Fallanguard

Ibladesh had been quiet for some time. With the southern alliances forces going north Ibladesh decided to attack the realm Ubent created of Fallanguard who was already in a stalemate war with Itorunt. This forced Ubent to disengage in the north and assist Fallenguard instead. The forces of Fallenguard and Ubent concentrated mainly on Ibladesh. Ibladesh was far inferior to the might of Ubent still at this time and Ubent and Fallenguard in a span of a few months cut Ibladesh in half. Ibladesh then surrendered and became Ubents vassal state under their protection.

Succession of Oroya Civil war between Rancangua and Old Rancangua

Rancangua was originally a tyranny. After the rise of a leader called William they formed a monarchy and with the aid of Sirion they were able to conquer Omsk. After this an internal change happened where the ruler stepped down to allow these people to form a theocracy. However, with the formation of the new theocracy Rancangua also change its diplomatic views and split the nation. Oroya succeeded from Rancangua forming Old Rancangua and a civil war unsued between them. The civil war went through a long stalemate that would last until the great war.

War up north continues Perdan, Caligus Oligarch vrs Sirion, East Sirion, West Sirion and Eleador

Many vicious battles progressed with the departure of Ubents armies the southern alliance forces were weakened considerably. However, Perdan’s military might was seen globally for the first time were the massive amounts of them came pouring through backed up by Oligarch and Caligus forces.

As battles progressed between the cities of Westmoor and Oligarch, West Sirion started to lose regions, soon after Oligarch their capital as it was moved there during the war turned and joined Eleador. A choice was made, to keep them alive, by moving their capital to Avamar. Also it had been decided that East Sirion rejoins back into Sirion proper.

Not even a week after Eleador weren’t able to defend Oligarch city and it was reclaimed by Oligarch

Eleador seeing the new threat new that they wouldn’t be able to hold so they moved their capital to Ashforth to be nearer to the frontlines. Battles raged on however the move only slowed the advances of Oligarch. Region by region one by one they came under the control of Oligarch. Eventually AshforthEleador’s capital was breached and taken over.

Again however, things started happening in the south. Forcing Caligus to withdraw to defend itself.

Eleador was then left without a city and lingered on in Dale. Its glory days were over and it would never again recover.

Shortly after Gadouha killed MrtII in a duel to the death shortly afterwards for this actions.

Out of this Winterfell was created. Winterfell's history was short. Very short.

The realm was created by Direwolf after succeeding Partora, a City that belonged to Perdan. Dimwood, Brive, Mulhouse and Montauban, being pledged to the Duchy of Partora, joined the new realm. It all came very suddenly while the main army of Perdan was fighting at the borders of Sirion. All units were called back to the homeland and a number of troop leaders, still loyal to Perdan, immediately joined Winterfell in order to put the situation under control. Malvean, Screndt, Gorobei and Shadow Thief managed to overthrow Direwolf and form a pseudo-council in order to hand the regions back to Perdan.

The crisis in Perdan was over. So the southern alliances looked for the opportunity to finally put a dent into Sirion’s power but betrayal happens which halts the plans.
