History
The Rise of Asittär
The war loving kingdom of Krihaber (Kre-ha-ber) had a plan to invade the Reichitte (Rai-ck-it-a), the former capital of the fallen Alric (AHL-rik) Empire. Their plan included them marching through the small kingdom of Asittär. During the invasion, the Krihaber forces outnumbered the Asittär army 3-1 but they lost to the Asittär army in a crushing defeat. This was due to the Ok (AWK), the Queen of Asittär.While the Krihaber were resting and celebrating their victory over a previous battle in a gorge, Ok had sent some scouts who found their place of rest and she formulated a plan for a surprise attack. Ok and her men moved towards the Krihaber's camp and set up a position some distance away. An array of dummy troops made of straw and spare helmets gave the impression of a large host, while the real Asittär army hurried round in a rapid march to get behind the camp. The heat gave way to a terrific thunderstorm, and as the Krihaber soldiers sheltered from the rain, Ok deployed her troops. When the storm ceased, they charged down upon the enemy in the gorge, so suddenly that The leader of the Krihaber forces thought a brawl had broken out among his men, only realizing it was an attack when he saw Ok charging up at him. Ok swung her sword (Magic and name WIP) at him, which the General was able to barely perry, but the second swing of her blade decapitated him.
After defeating over half of the Krihaber army Ok decided to take the opportunity to invade and take over. The fact that over half of the Krihaber army had already been killed meant that their forces were spread quite thin across the kingdom, Ok’s forces quickly took over a lot of the land. By the time that the Krihaber king came up with a defensive plan only ¼ of his army was left and only the capital and 2 other cities could be properly defended.
During the 16th month of the invasion Krihaber’s only stronghold left was the capital, Kihaba (key-ha-ba). The siege on the capital took 35 days and many lives were lost on both sides. On the 36th day, just as the Asittär army broke through the capital defenses, a large thunderous boom sounded out as obsidian clouds quickly began to spread throughout the sky further than the eye could see. Along with another boom a large pillar of what seemed to be pure darkness struck down on the King's castle.
The armies of both sides stopped to stare in awe at the spectacle, waiting to see what would happen. A moment of silence passed as a thick fog seemed to slowly encase the entire city. The silence was soon followed by the sound of horrid screaming, that sounded so horrid they could curdle the very blood still in your veins, as the dead were slowly malformed into monstrous beasts that killed anything that stood before them. Both armies took many casualties and in the end only ⅓ of the Asittär army remained and the Krihaber were almost completely whipped out. The remaining troops of the Asittär kingdom called for a retreat. Over two months they would try to claim the city from these monstrosities, but after repeated failures and many casualties they decided to give up on taking the city.
Over the next 6 months the Asittär forces would crush any uprising from the former Krihaber army until they were completely whipped out. The total conquest of Krihaber took only two years. Over the next 100 years Asittär would have some uprisings that were ether dismantled or destroyed, eventually the former people of Krihaber accepted being a part of Asittär as about 20 years after the conquest it had massive economical golden age and the quality of life around the kingdom increased.
