History
Sheeth Alari was founded the peace treaty that ended of the civil war. The first High King Callum Woodshaper was unwilling to bring the five houses together to rule the new kingdom leading to the houses fighting each other and not ruling the kingdom. Into this power vaccum rose Ascal Olonala and his Vines Rebirth cult. With no support the King asked the High Elves for support which was not received well by the five houses. The King was removed from the throne and the current system of government determined.
