Kharidian–Zarosian War

The Kharidian-Zarosian War was a series of major battle in the northern Kharidian Lands in the Second Age. The forces of Zaros, the god of control, had been expanding his empire of Forinthry and attempted to invade the Kharidian lands, which were ruled over by a group of gods called the Menaphite Pantheon.

To cope with the many attacks, all the troops of the Kharidian cities were dispensed to fight, and many mercenaries, such as Gram Kobold, who kept a diary on the war, were hired as well. Intially, the Zarosians were on the winning hand, quickly conquering terrain on the Menaphites. Icthlarin, Menaphite god of the dead, left the planet to seek help elsewhere, and eventually arrived to the war-ridden plane of Freneskae. There, he convinced the extremely powerful race of the Mahjarrat to swear allegiance to him and vanquish the Zarosian armies, at the promise of large battle and combat. He took all of the Mahjarrat with him to Gielinor, where they arrived through a large rift in the midst of battle.
