Machine War
Military action
Cabal of Ironheart launches surprising assault on neighbouring kingdoms.
Cabal of Ironheart - ruled by a group of machine elf technomages that believed in a supremacy of machine 'life' over organic - launch surprising war, assaulting their neighbours via Labirynth.
The war quickly turns in their favour, as they employed various warmachines created with salvaged Xylian technology. As the elves are woefully unable to combat them (and are still weakened after War of Woes), the war is very one-sided.
