Bitter rivals that had been at each other's throats ever since the devastating Zuaan War fifteen years ago when they worked together as allies against the aggressive Zuaan empire that sought to reconquer the continent of Iyor. Though Shau Drela, Skania and their allies won the war, it was not without great cost and bitter regret. The greatest example of this was elven general Tathaln Virmaer who strived to win no matter the cost. During a key battle in the Kingdom of Edron, on his own volition and without consulting anyone, Tathaln used an experimental bomb that while it wiped out the Zuaan army and allowed the allies to win the day. It caused significant friendly casualties and civilian deaths. Along with destroying the battlefield that they were defending which contained the Edronan's capital and caused massive environmental damage that contaminated the area with deadly chemicals. Turning the once lush landscape into a land devoid of life along with it poisoning a major river that ran through the capital. Tathaln was at first was not arrested for this despite pleas by the Edronans for he was too valuable to the war effort. Once the war was over, the Shau Drela king, King Sudryal Raloven did his best to protect Tathaln from being arrested and being tried for what he did. But, opposition mainly from Sudryal's daughter, Princess Aleratha, forced Sudryal's hand and Tathaln was brought to trial. For his actions, Tathaln was found guilty and was sentenced to life in captivity. The night before he reached his prison cell, an unknown group ambushed the convoy and freed Tathaln. It was rumored that King Sudryal was behind the breakout. Because of this, Sudryal's attempts to protect Tathaln and growing resentment for Shau Drela caused a rift between the allies. Eventually, it formed a cold war between the two nations with other nations picking sides or choosing to stay neutral. Tensions are high, and there is a real chance of war between the Shau Drela and Skania, there is a chance for peace. The Shau Drela, with Aleratha now the queen of the kingdom, has though diplomatic efforts with Skania have managed to arrange a diplomatic summit with the goal of ending the animosity between the two nations. The summit will be held in the neutral kingdom of Ostrar, and everyone is watching to see its outcome. [center]Rules: 1. Expected to follow standard site rules 2.
