Cytal Civil War Timeline:
5993:
Cult of Chaos launch a simultaneous attack of cursed beserker agents in the cities of Oralyn, Birohhal, Fi-Ha, Norpelda & Yroh Wood. The confusion and planted evidence causes a war to break out between the cities, each recruiting nearby townfolk and villagers with the promise of protection if they join their armies.
The Cult of Chaos begin building a gateway in the Great Forest rerady for the arrival of Archaos.
5995:
Oharius, fighting for the Yroh Wood army, is fighting Norpeldan forces but is separated from his squad. After being lost in the Great Forest, he stumbles upon the creation of the Chaos gateway. He is spotted and chased back into the forest, where he is saved by Toufanoir.
They return to Yroh Wood and report the findings. The general refuses to believe him and discharges him for insanity. Feeling there is something wrong, Oharius and Toufanoir leave the army in search for answers about the building.
5996:
Searching for answers has led the pair to Uwoll, where they believe they can get evidence of the gateway and the plans of the Cult of Chaos. They recruit Whervae & Eurl to help on the intel mission. The missision is a success and Oharius is able to return to the leaders of Uwoll evidence and a witness on the plans of the Cult. This sparks the city to form an alliance with Oharius and send him to recruit an old ally, Drovvin.
The heroes travel to the mountain city of Drovvin, but before they can talk to the King, the armieis of Fi-Ha ambush the city. The heroes help protect the city from invaders and eventually make it to the Drovvin palace. Here the King believes the story and join Oharius' alliance.
5997:
The king states his armies will be more helpful if they can defuse fighting with Fi-Ha. The heroes are then sent on a quest to rescue a diplomat named Lha-Ria from mountain Necromancers to aid them. With the help of the Royal Guard Nogon, the heroes are able to safely return Lha-Ria to Drovvin before setting off for Fi-Ha and making peace talks.
After fighting their way into Fi-Ha, Lha-Ria is able to convince Alum leaders of their cause and come to an agreement for a cease fire between Drovvin and Fi-Ha. Realising that the heroes don't know how to stop the gateway, they plan to find an expert in dark magic, a member of Paramound called Hinnin.
Word of Oharius' mission spreads to the Cult of Chaos, who abandon the gateway in the Great Forest and build in a new secret location, Fort Kasucian. Sending mercanaries and assassins after Oharius and co.
5997:
The heroes split up, Whervae heading West with the Drovvin army to try recruit Birohhal and Oralyn to the cause. The others search for the Paramound base in the Craters of Crellan. Whislt travelling the craters, the heroes are ambushed by Necromancer assassins but saved by Shard Warriors. To show support they offer Fo-her to join the heroes.
The heroes learn that Hinnin was kidnapped and taken to Norpelda as a prisoner of war. The city is protected by a crazed warrior called Raedon making it almost impossible to get into the city. They try anyway and find that Raedon is cursed. After healing the sorceress, the heroes arrive in Norpelda and rescue Hinnin from captivity. Making plans to investigate the gateway.
Meanwhile, Whervae is caught up in a fight against Elsgar in the mountains. Eventually monsters attack, forcing both sides to join forces and defeat the enemy beasts. After this, Elsgar is convinced of the cause and joins Whervae on his quest to Birohhal. Arriving at Birohhal, they find the city is under attack of a Necromancer army from under the city. They save the city and in return the city joins the alliance. Finally on their way to Oralyn, they are caught by Oralyn forces and escorted to the city.
5998:
Oharius and company leave Raedon and head for the Great forest, here they discover that the gateway has been abandoned in its consturction. Giving Hinnin chance to inspect and determine the plans of the Cult of Chaos. The discovery is short lived as they are ambushed and taken prisoner by Yroh Wood forces that seem under the possession of the Cult of Chaos.
Whervae and others finally arrive at Oralyn and attempt to talk there way out of prison. They convince an alchemist called Sianoh who works from the outside to gather enough evidence of the Cult of Chaos activity to free the heroes. Once free, they are able to convince the leaders of Oralyn to stop fighting and join the alliance. The plan is to follow the evidence provided by Kho-Ra to Fort Kasucian, where the heroes discover a new gateway being built by the cult of Chaos.
5999:
The heroes try to attack the fort, but it is a failed attempt, nearly killing them. They retreat to Birohhal, where they find Eurl who informs the heroes that Oharius has been taken captive by Necromancers in Yroh Wood. The heroes divert their resources to surprise attacking Yroh Wood. They use an old waystone to portal to the city.
Once they arrive, the heroes are met with a possessed army of Yroh Wood fighting alongside an army of monsters from the Great Forest. A massive battle ensues but eventually, the heroes take back Yroh Wood and all of Oharius commanders are united for the first time.
They prepare to destroy the gateway at Fort Kasucian and march to the fort on the hill. Here the Cult of Chaos are waiting. One final battle breaks out and the heroes are able to stop the gateway from activating, defeating the leader of the Cult. With very few members escaping. The heroes save all of Cytal and declare a new era of peace across the land. Bringing an end to the Civil War.
