## Background

### The coup

The coup began to happen when Osmeus the ll announced his departure to the colonies. Out of nowhere, a nardan solider (varas) started attacking osmeus guard. Then pingu went in the temple of justice then shot osmeus the ll to death making this speech after wards

"Osmeus is dead, by my hand. And I am euphoric When I was young, I was loyal.

I pledged service to the Emperor: I toiled and bled for him. And for it, I was betrayed. My lands wilted, weakened, worsened by the day. A shadow of Kraznir’s golden age. I had learned the price of loyalty, and for that I sought gifts of ambition.

When I first joined The Cult, I didn't believe in it, not truly. All I wanted was for Kraznir, my land, my people, to flourish in a way that they couldn’t under “His Majesty”. We rose, growing stronger by the day as “Augustus”’s wrath created more and more enemies. We were close, so close…or maybe that's just what he wanted us to think.

He knew, the bastard always knew. My lands were despoiled, my castle captured, and my loyal retainers and companions were all put to death. And it was not a quick death. They were made to suffer for the amusement of my enemies. And Osmeus, in all his sadism, left me for last. A public execution, so everyone would learn to obey. I closed my eyes, waiting for the final blow, and there I saw it. I looked upon the naked body of a god. The God. The Null. And then I awoke. An unwilling thrall to Osmeus; I was forced to follow his every whim, because he would not let me die. He made me oppress my people, be cruel, and be a tyrant.

Magic is a weak man’s folly, and Osmeus was the weakest man of all; a parasite that latched his soul onto his spawn, so desperate to reject the gift that we will all eventually receive. I never needed magic or blessed numbers, I had my mind and my tenacity, and with each day the enchantments that bound my will grew weaker. Weak enough that a single action against my oppressor would rid me of the curse. And the Dread-Father gave me my chance; an assassination attempt, brought about by my own fellow Voidists.

I will forever treasure the look on that monster’s face as I raised my bow, almost as much as after the arrow struck.

***Narda is dead, Long live Darkfall,***

***May The Void consume us all."***

## The war

### Darkfall raids

Led by the Lady of Everhall and Varas, Darkfall soldiers began raiding across Keranos.

At Iztapam, a civilian miner was killed by Darkfall forces.

At Palus, Darkfaller forces had a stand-off with coalition forces stationed there. The tension escalated into a battle, being one of the most notable of the crusade. Despite being outnumbered 2-8, Darkfall managed to kill 2 people and the battle solowly disspated after 20 minutes. The battle was inconclusive, with both sides claiming victory, albeit the majority of the international community claim the collation won the day.

### Battle of noxia

The battle of noxia also known as the noxian war was the largest war for its time. The war started to spark after the skirmish at Palus where Darkfall claimed victory while retreating at the same time. Like most nations, Noxus didn’t recognize this and declared war. On 4/25/23 the battle began with original plans for a noxian invasion of everhall which were scraped due to lack of communication and transport. Darkfallian soliders landed in the port, where a 13v3 began. The noxians had more manpower but Darkfall had more gear and training and in the first 5 minutes there were already losses reported. The darkfallians made a breakthrough into the city and went on a bombing campaign blowing up storage and most notably the shop where it was found out there were spies helping Darkfall (me the editor I’m so cool!!!). By this time everyone fighting against Darkfall was either wounded or looted, so prof\_frost went into negotiation which ended with the annexation of Noxus ending the noxian war.

### Oheila-Ionia proxy war

The Oheila-Ionia proxy war was the biggest war in Kearnos so far. Ionia was a breakaway group from oheila and due to that oheila wanted their land. The assault on novea (doubt I spelled that right) began on 4/29/22 with a cannon and arrow exchange happening. Nothing was happening, so penguinonpvp with some tnt blew up the walls 4 times to get to Novea. The battle began and itachti leading barstool and randomBirdboy to a trap where randomBirdboy was pushed in and barstool fell for the bait. Itachti later died in the trap bur barstool and Birdboy stood there for a couple mins then penguinonpvp broke in and blew it up eventually the king of oheila would fall into the trap to making a advantage for the voidist volunteer who killed 6 people in a rampage taking advantage of the situation. Eventually ionia would surrender ending the war making it the biggest war so far
