With no Queen yet on the throne, [[Nether Gate]] was commanded by both sides, committing assassinations for both factions, in order to maintain their own favor and grip on power. | ||
However, the conflict's roots stretch back to the late 420s. Princess [[Falzrahm]], second in line to the throne, began maneuvering to win over the majority of the Senate, wanting her sister, Princess [[Shahrewar]], to give up her right of succession and take it for herself. | However, the conflict's roots stretch back to the late 420s. Princess [[Falzrahm]], second in line to the throne, began maneuvering to win over the majority of the Senate, wanting her sister, Princess [[Shahrewar]], to give up her right of succession and take it for herself. Rumor has it that the Barows family was the real force behind all this scheming, as they had married one of their members to Princess Falzrahm and were obsessed with maintaining their power given that both Queen Olhazeta's and Princess Shahrewar's husbands were from the Godwin family. However, how true these rumors are is unclear. | ||
With the elderly Queen Olhazeta no longer possessing the strength to resolve the situation, things devolved into a cold war between the two factions. The height of these plans was the [[Sacred Games]] of Falzrahm's daughter, Princess [[Arshtat Falenas|Arshtat]]. Even though Princess Shahrewar's daughter, [[Haswar]], was older than Arshtat and therefore had a higher priority of succession, holding the games for Arshtat first would lend credibility to the idea that Falzrahm herself was the predominant successor. | With the elderly Queen Olhazeta no longer possessing the strength to resolve the situation, things devolved into a cold war between the two factions.
