Current time line = 999 A.D. the Dark Hour
Both rulers of Nogard and Enab did agree to be united under one kingdom, to be known as Dragonbane in the land of Nok. At the ceremony to seal this momentous occasion a conflict that would last a thousand years began. Maybe having so many experienced veterans of war in one place was a mistake? Their egos when bruised eventually turned to bleed. One mans pride is another's conceit.
For one hour the magic used, caused an eclipse that would symbolically create a gap in history. The newly built castle Nok, vanished or was destroyed. All of the combatants were wounded in some fashion, but after the smoke had cleared, the most mortal of all wounds became evident. Both kings cast off their original belief that peace could be won by union.
Twelve secret battles in all,
have been waged, yet never has their been a decisive victor, this checkered
past, is itself a game of mystery. The last battle, known as the
Shekel of Forli, has created a pause. The
outcome of this hot spring conflict has kept the eyes of citizens from seeing
the cold truth about deceptions! King Dragon vanished from the midst of great Pain and
suffering, all but one of his followers were captured, but the Bane clan still
covered most of the battle field. Their apparent victory made them soon forget,
that the Dragon's rise to power, was by the strength of building alliances.
He retreated into obscurity until now.
