King Belúgh, Belúgh the bald, was an Abhainnian King that ruled the  Rúbagh tribe until around the year 5 TFD. Despite his name he was only 16 years of age during the peak of his power.
==Altercations and alliance with the Elleadhi==
Ghruogh attacks the kingdom of Rúbagh to the west of his dominions, and fights them in the Battle of Cálastann, where his forces are ambushed in the rear troops by Belugh's forces. Belúgh, who was known for his wit, offered Ghruogh Ghrugarrach the following proposal, that each king should lift his throne, and if Belúgh wins, Ghruogh should allow him to remain the king of Rúbagh. Ghrugarrach's throne, adorned with copper and oak wood, is too heavy to be lifted by Ghruogh himself, as he usually have twelve slaves to drag it on logs. But Belúgh's chair is made of a woven basket and the feathers of a golden duck, and he lifts it without problem. Ghruogh becomes infuriated and plans to kill Belúgh, but Céllegéad is instead proposing that both men drink mead together. Thus Ghruogh and Belúgh becomes friends, and Belúgh swears fealty to Ghruogh Ghrugarrach.
==War against Raidhsénia==
The initial phase of the Raidhsénian invasion went as planned, with several troops moving west in a rapid direction, taking the town of Uládh very quick, with association of elite covert Order of Light agents. However, when invading the neighbouring territory of Háleadh, the relatively small and discreet Raidhsénian force found itself surrounded by several armies from the White Horse Valley, commanded by Belúgh who seemed very fond of playing "hide and seek" in the woods, always attacking the rear guards and then dissipating. This slows down the Raidhsénian advance allows the subjects of Háleadh to kill the Raidhsénian special warrior group. Then Ghruogh's massive army of 12.000 men joins the fray, advancing on three columns, as he has moved by the mountains. Ghruogh almost cuts off the Raidhsénian forces, and advance on Malágh, in Ennéadh Greatab, but is forced to retreat when Raidhsénian reinforcements arrive.
It was around this time that the Raidhsénian government tried to offer Bélugh a peace treaty whereby the Raidhsénian army will agree to withdraw from the Wánna corridor if they hand over Ghrúgarrach and Céllegead. Bélugh refuses any deal that compromises Ghrúgarrach outright, and the war continues.
==The Battle of Sesélléassanacábaedh and death==
Following the initial altercations in the Wánna corridor, King Belugh had constructed a huge stone wall at the eastern side of the northern mouth of the Wánna corridor in an attempt to thwart a Raidhsénian invasion of the land of the White Horses. Then, a Elleadhi task force of around 4500 men invades the Raidhsénian province of Eénadh Greatabh, slaughtering 3000 Solastic settlers. The Raidhsénian forces move east to meet them at the hill of Sesélléassanacábaedh. Ghrúgarrach deliberately prolongs the battle by up to a couple of weeks to allow for reinforcements from Rúbagh. However, belated by rainy weather, Bélugh is intercepted and killed by three soldiers of the elite Solastic unit who catch him with rope and eviscerate him with Obsidian short-spears.
==Successor==
Bélugh is succeeded by his son Thengwáín who ascends not only to the Rúbagh throne but also to that of the Elléadhi following the sudden death of Ghrúgarrach.
With both of the local powers at a stalemate, Thengwáín adopts a renewed policy of pursuing peace with Raidhsénia and ending the war.
