    The Blockade of the Great Stronghold of Arkik

    The Great Stronghold of Arkik was the seat of power for the Traxius Alliance and is where the leaders of the settlements on Kesser Island met.   While overtaking Arkik during the 12 Year War, King Marxas Uall placed a 11 month blockade on the inner walls of Arkik that surrounded the Stronghold. Finally, in the 8th of Elsin, 15 ToA, King Marxus took control of the Great Stronghold of Arkik. Arkik was a major strategic advantage for King Marxus and allowed his forces to move on the four settlements that surround the Silver Bay/East Bay Region.

    Kayda's Rebellion
    Military action

    After the rape and murder of a young Tiefling girl named Kayda by the hands of multiple Kesser Army Soldiers, the already strained relationship between the locals and the Kesser Army at Azule lit up into a 45 day conflict. The guerrilla style tactics employed on the Kesser Army resulted in 56 KIA and 144 WIA for the Army and approximately 70+ deaths to guerrilla forces. Azule would no longer allow non-Kesser Army within the walls until Azule's later collapse.   Kayda's Rebellion

    The Salter War
    Military: War

    With the secession of the North, the Kesser Army conducted major military operations to remove/destroy the rebellious areas and motivate other settlements to not follow in the path of the rebels. During the initial years, the surrounding settlements were pro-crown, but as the war raged on, atrocities and war crimes from the Kesser Army to the supported settlements slowly changed the local's view on their allegiance to the crown in Kesserfell. Eventually, many citizens in the settlements of Ridgepoint, Silversteel and Arkik would join the Northern Alliance and place more stress on the Kesser Army in Azule and later Arkik.
