With its origins Siloud had an extensive slave trade and large working force. However, this meant there a large growing population of unhappy subjects in the empire. The empire in turn leaned into cruel and complex magical and psycological techniques to keep their subjects in check. Normally these devices would have worked if it wasnt for two of the participants of the convergence ritual. Abinon Atuntec and Abel Cention.
Abinon was born into slavery, but the son of a keeper of the beast gardens at Templegrave. He realized that the techniques used to tame the animals were very similar to the techniques used on the Siloud slaves. Thus when he returned form the convergence ritual he started to use his newfound power to study the slave controls the animals of the beast gardens. Its said he was finally sucessful on a panther that would become his familar. Togetherthey free the animals of the beast gardens and inspired them to fight back at there oppessor on and event that would become known as the Wilding. AMong this Choas he escapes to the forest and started to amass a rebllion of freed human slaves.
However the rebllion was not just contained to Templegrave. Abinon had passed his slave freeing technique to his new frien Abel Cention. Abel was a slave captured from his orginal Kaidori tribe. He used his traveler skills and charistmatic personality to become the messenger of the rebellion. He travel trhoughtout Summers End instigating revolts and distrubing the slave trade.

With Revolts all through the west and north Silouds enocomy was starting to suffer. Plus with pressure from their Nomon clonies SIloud returned to their orginal form of control, violence. The revolts in turns were becoming increasingly bloody and vicious. THen i came to a head in an event that become known as the Dragonrain.
At the time Siloud’s most feared weapon was known as the Dragon's Calvary. It was a legion that originally consisted of just dragon riders, and was the leading force that allowed the Siloud empire to rise to power. However as the empire grew so did their need for larger dragon calvary. Thus they began to breed dragons and use slaving practices to control them without the need for a trained rider. Siloud planned to release the full force of this legion to raze Sunpeake
However, The revolution had a secret plan. Abinon had managed to infiltrate the Dragons Calvary and freed the riderless dragons, but had them lie in wait. Then the day came where the dragons calvary came to meet the Rebel Liberation at the fields of Sunpeake. It was then that the freed dragons turned on their former masters. It was an aerial dragon battle where dragons dropped out of the sky like rain.
Amidst the battle Abel was able to bring down the emperor, Kalicero Sailon, off his dragon. In the battle that ensued Abel killed the Last Siloud Emperor in Morteron. Meanwhile Abinon led his west animal rebellion on Jen while the dragon calvary was away. They liberated the city from the remaining Siloud powers.
