By 844, Karese Noanni had been the guiding light of his beloved 10th for over twenty years. Under his direction, the Legion had become one of most versatile military units ever known, weathering the hardships of the pacification of the Lescanza and the War of Legions with minimal casualties.
But with all but a few of the Legion's most notorious enemies vanquished, the 10th faced a crisis of identity. The Empire they were sworn to serve was gone and brawling in the ranks was becoming endemic. 'Under all the stars, there is nothing more wretched than a soldier without an enemy to fight,' a frustrated fifty-two year old Noanni wrote in the annals. 'I've had enough of blood that a hectare of soil, a spade, and mule will content me well until my end, if it must, but what am I to do with these youths of fire?'
On the first day of the new year, addressing a freezing and apprehensive assembly of his men, Karese Noanni declared that the 10th Legion as they knew it could no longer survive. Food supplies were dwindling, a shortage of farmers and an overabundance of Legionnaires primarily at fault. If they were to capitalize on their good fortune, it would mean dismantling everything they had ever known and constructing a new kingdom to withstand the ravages of time.
Immediately, there were calls for Noanni to assume the newly proposed throne of Ehb, but he graciously declined, saying the new Kingdom of Ehb would still need an army, and it was his intention to lead it through the difficult times ahead. Refugees from other parts of the Empire were already presenting themselves, seeking shelter from the chaos on the Plain of Tears. Behind them, he suspected, would soon come visitors of a less benevolent nature as word of Ehb's singular good fortunes leaked out.
