The **Great Kinslaying**, also known as the **Transcendentalist Civil War** and the **Great [Sinyettan] Civil War**, was a civil war that lasted from 2703 to 2711. The conflict was the consequence and culmination of the tension between two prominent Eleven Transcendentalist schools, the Ascensionists and the Embracists. It was fought throughout the Sinyettan Polystellar Alignment, and resulted in an Ascensionist victory, which entailed the expulsion of the Embracists and other anti-Ascensionist organizations, such as the Olótenites.

In the aftermath of the Great Hyper Relay War, the opposition towards the Ascensionists began to seriously question the ulterior motives of Elenyon II. Discussions in government circles circulated regarding Sinyettan expansionism, most of which were promoted by the Embracists, who held a different idea of Elven Transcendentalism. The Ascensionist agenda became clear after Elenyon's nationwide speech on 16 Lótessë 2701, where he promoted an idea of a galactic crusade and the Sinyettan race claiming the Shroud for purifying the galaxy. Tension escalated between the two schools and anti-Ascensionist sentiment rose in a significant portion of the Alignment populace. The increasing divide culminated with an attempted assassination of Elenyon by an Olótenite team under Ocatalushorn Kaebinder in 4 Nénimë 2703, precipitating the purge of the Order four days later.

Seeing the forthcoming expansion of the Ascensionist retaliation, Tindómië Sanwëlatyanis of the Embracist School urged the anti-Ascensionists for armed defense on 11 Nénimë 2703, and appealed to several elements of the Alignment Surface and Void Forces to join the cause. Simultaneously, various anti-Ascensionist officials heeded the call, and under Meryalemë Ruscadil's guidance, they formed the Physical Preservation League with Tindómië and oversaw the secession of their respective Captaincies in the course of three Sinyettan days. The Ghaindrian Star Kingdom broke off from their vassalage and joined the League to offer further support in personnel and supplies. War was formerly declared by the Ascensionist government on 15 Nénimë, and went on to last eight years. Nations from the Galactic Community, particularly the Bhulux Commonwealth, the Krastleni Irenic Authority and the Ubaxian Star Empire, and Novayan dominions such as the Federation of Hankatania pledged armament and limited physical support for the League. One of the Novayan dominions, Xetera, allied with the Ascensionists on grounds of cultural, economic and political ties and a shared mutual goal. In the fourth year of the war, the conflict turned in favor of the Ascensionists, and despite strong League resistance in the late half of the war, the Ascensionists secured victory with its conquest of the seceded captaincies of the Northern and Eastern Marquessates, and the western half of the Ghaindrian Star Kingdom. The consequence of the war's result resonated significantly throughout the galaxy, with the rest of the galactic nations preparing for war and the stage being set for Elenyon's Crusade.
