Crimson Crusade

=== "I didn't know..." --Guide Paluea Idella, Collected Quotes, 1013 AE ===
== Overview ==
With advice from the Daranthel Guide Paluea Idella, the Consummate of Red Axe was pressured to declare Daranthel as the official religion of Red Axe. Instead, Consummate Firesun surprised the world and announced Gendanthel as the official religion of Red Axe. She began consulting and pleading with any forces that would listen and openly worshiped demons, fiends, and dethen.
After the consummate had built a sizable legion of otherworldly forces, she slaughtered every foreign diplomat in Red Axe. The Crimson Crusade poured over Red Axe and pushed out into islands of the Tidegate and border towns of Morsia. The Consummate's crusade came to an end when she went as far as to transform the entire volcano of Motomlima into a massive nation-crushing siege creature.
The event was headed off by a desperate combined last ditch effort made up of the Kalkyn, Mtuokaori, and Myandeth. Since then, the demi-god, Oka, has convinced Consummate Amarien Firesun to engage in peace negotiations overseen by the Daridel Monastery. Red Axe is still considered unsafe by many merchants, dignitaries, and adventurers.
