Niueyjara Civil War
More actions
Background
Thousands of years prior to the Grand Calming many of the human clans of Niueyjar were stuck in constant state of war. The fighting came to an end when the reclusive Dvergur sent out a small number of their elder mages to put an end to ceaseless conflict. The subjugation was a bloody and brutal affair but eventually the Dvergur were victorious crowned one of their own as Emperor and founded Clan Kalifen who ruled the island unopposed until shortly after the Grand Caling. By this point several of the clans had come to believe that the Dvergur blood in the royal family was diluted enough that they had a chance at self rule.
