The War of Succession took place in [[solar calendar|SY]] 446 when [[Barbarosa Rugner]], the youngest of seven sons, was appointed heir to the [[Scarlet Moon Empire]] by Emperor [[Michelan Rugner|Michelan]] over [[Geil Rugner]], Michelan's older brother who had previously been overlooked for the throne by their father. While Barbarosa was in [[Kunan]], praying for good harvest, his father passed away and Geil took advantage of the opportunity enacting the 'Trial to remove the Crown Prince.' Geil Rugner was crowned Emperor and the civil war began. | The War of Succession took place in [[solar calendar|SY]] 446 when [[Barbarosa Rugner]], the youngest of seven sons, was appointed heir to the [[Scarlet Moon Empire]] by Emperor [[Michelan Rugner|Michelan]] over [[Geil Rugner]], Michelan's older brother who had previously been overlooked for the throne by their father.
