Military leadership

After proving himself in the defensive army as a capable leader, Isiah rose through the ranks. At the age of 35, he attained the rank of general. In his career, Isiah pushed through the now Aspela region. While Isiah loved the fights against the dwarven and elven kingdoms, he was against the wars between the humans.

In 249, a year after his founding of the Shadow Empire, Isiah defended Decarise against a dwarven siege. Outnumbered, he created an elite squad, named the Fallen Guards. Isiah laid out a plan to neutralize the dwarven leadership and take out their resources in the night. After their losses, the dwarves retreated the next day.
