The Kaldoric Civil War 362-377
On the death of King Maranos in 362, the clear successor was Aidrik II, but many of the barons supported his elder bastard brother, Fierth of Qualdris, who promised them greater autonomy. Neither claimant could command the unswerving loyalty of their supporters. For fifteen years, the armies of the two rival kings laid waste to the countryside. Finally in 377, Aidrik II, acting on treacherously false information about the enemy's location, was caught in open ground by a superior rebel force near Kiban. Several of Aidrik's vassal lords defected and Fierth won the day. Aidrik was captured and executed, allegedly roasted over an open fire.
