@Darth Shadow I've heard it's quite intensive when it starts generating the burgs and stuff, so I'd advise making the options turn those down I think..

Khalyf Ahmad al-Suwaidi was the mastermind behind the succesful coup that ousted the Al-Ibn Wahad family from power, resulting in the death of sultan Kamil Al-Ibn Wahad and his sons, daughters, nieces and nephews, brothers and sisters. His entire family line was put to the sword, bar two; Najla Al-Ibn Wahad, spymaster by profession, and her brother Basim Al-Ibn Wahad, a young but wise boy with wisdom beyond his years. They were led out of the palace during the coup by none other than Ketill, the Raven King, who had been captured and enslaved by the Sultanate, put under the direct command of Najla after years of political tussling over who would get to be the owner of this daab, this bear of a man.

Following their escape, the Khalyf declared Khalyfate, and established rule based on the principle of religion -- as a bid to establish his religious supremacy over the decadent Al-Ibn Wahad family, he renewed the war against Broacien to drive back the infidel from the castle that had been taken from them ages ago. He did so succesfully, and his war saw the death of Gregar I, the King Stag of Broacien. This victory came at the hand of the Haris Alkhalyfa, a new mercenary retinue that swore loyalty to the Khalyf and only the Khalyf, as long as their wages were paid. This mercenary retinue was made up entirely of Northern Tribesmen who had made the long voyage south through Broacien or by sea to serve in the Haris Alkhalyfa. Armed with typical northern weaponry and using tactics that the Broacienien soldiers were not used to, they played a pivotal role in the capture of Redsand keep.

Victory, however, could not be more bitter sweet. This war had emptied the coffers of the Khalyfate significantly, which prompted the Khalyf to begin levying heavier taxes on the citizenry, especially those who partook in the many different sects of the Sawarimic faith.

This came to a head at the town of Al-Mawrur, where the Ahl al-Hariq (lit.: People of the Torch) sect had made its home. The area had become plagued by bandits, preying upon Al-Mawrur and its people, and the Khalyf had failed to protect them but still wished to levy taxes, which prompted an open act of rebellion against the Khalyf.

In the skirmish for Al-Mawruw, the Khalyf had sent an army of which 2/3rd was Haris Alkhalyfa, and the remainder made up of low ranking Sawarim soldiers. However, just before the battle was to commence, a messenger from the Haris Alkhalyfa arrived and instructed the leading guardsman of the Haris Alkhalyfa that their wages would not be paid following several months of late or non-payment. Alerted to this, the Haris Alkhalyfa commander on the scene alerted his men that the Haris Alkhalyfa would be disbanding on the spot, and the Northern mercenaries scattered, waiting to see what would happen.

Despite the Haris Alkhalyfa disbanding and disappearing, the Sawarim soldiers went on with the attack regardless, and were faced with a militia made up of men who had somehow lit their swords on fire. The battle was swift, and the battle was won by the Sawarim, who put all those who resisted to the blade and desecrated the temple and their holy fire, making sure the followers of the Ahl al-Hariq would instead convert to true Sawarimic faith.

The leading priestess, Tehmina, was taken away by an ex-Haris Alkhalyfa commander, Saegrimmr, who promised to take her to the former Sultana, Najla Al-Ibn Wahad in the North. With the choice being between remaining and leaving, Tehmina opted to leave Al-Mawrur, and traveled with Saegrimmr to the North to garner support for her people.

And support was given to her. The Raven King mustered an army that could rival any southern army in size, and sailed his massive fleet South to the Khalyfate, seeking to topple the Khalyfate and instead put his youngest son on the throne -- a result of his political marriage with Najla Al-Ibn Wahad, and thus a rightful heir to the throne of the Al-Ibn Wahad sultanate.
