The Reign of King Haras
Political event
King Haras' rule is almost universally seen as a tragic period in the history of the Basin.
Highlights of The Disastrous Rule of King Haras
• Coronated at age 23
• King Haras’ rule was defined by two things: First, he just wasn’t a
very good or capable ruler. Second, the Nilroggi almost destroyed the
Kingdom.
• This was the time of the Third Incursion (117-120 AC), and it pushed
the Kingdom to its breaking point. There were several points during
the Third Incursion that the Kingdom was almost erased from history
and at every turn, King Haras seemed incapable of doing anything
about it. If not for a handful of independent-minded Dukes and
military commanders, we may not even have a Kingdom today,
although historians only discovered later how bad King Haras’ rule
actually was.
• King Haras somehow guided the nation through the crisis (barely) and
died a broken man not long after, at the age of 54, having ruled for 31 troubled years.
