The three brothers seek out the leaders of each Church, They claim they are the Chosen of their respected Gods and that the Gods are not happy with the Holy War. The brothers are killed by the Churches of Teutonia, causing the Gods, Sythis, Bane and Mortis, themselves to descend on the Nation. The Gods lay waste to the three armies of the Churches and pronounce that Teutonia has to put aside its petty differences so that the Nation can grow. Thus the Holy War Ends.
For his betrayal to the Trinity, Lythas is ripped apart by the gods removing his aspects and domains. His worshippers are hunted by the Churches of the Trinity and all record of him and his followers are destroyed. However, the Trinity where unaware of a new aspect that Lythas had acquired during his actions with the Three Brother priests. This aspect would hold what would remain of Lythas before manifesting itself into the god known as Gul.
After the Holy War, it was decided by several large Teutonian families to break the religious hold on the country. Although still staunchly religious, these families formed a ruling council. At the same time, the ruling religious council known as the Synod took a step back to deal with religious matters, leaving the running of the country to the new council, which was named the Reichstag. This council decided law with the help of the Synod and, with the blessing of the gods, chose the new monarch when a royal line ended.
