Background



Thiranaedh-Lejira relations have always been extremely complicated. Both countries were colonised by different regional powers, and the innate differences between the Okhéiae and Lejirans in their style of governance made political confrontation inevitable. By the early 1310s, however, the two states had not faced each other in open battle for over a century. The Okhéiæ of Thiranaedh, who had been handed their worst defeat ever, were still recovering from the devastation that followed the Second Lejiran border war. The Lejirans, who had been blessed by shrewd, diplomatic rulers, focused on expanding their economies, trade sectors, and, crucially, their relationships with neighbouring countries. By the late 1320s, Lejira seemed at its strongest, whilst the archprincess of Thiranaedh found it increasingly difficult to maintain her grasp over the Okhéiae.

The Maroon Cult of Thiyàdiynîc, a noble house whose seat was in the very mountains that bordered the triumphant Lejiran state, despaired at the current situation. Seeing the royal family of their southern rivals tour the soil that Okhéiae men and women bled for proved to be the final straw. In 1320, covert elements of the Maroon Cult crossed the frontier and assassinated Crown Prince Aszar and Princess Elyara. This shocked the reigning queen Samyra I so badly that she allegedly died of a broken heart.

Furious at the deaths of his mother and siblings, Queen Samyra I's second son Ousamane assumed power as king Ousamane I. King Ousamane immediately sent assassins to kill Archprincess ???. ???, who herself was in favour of rapprochement with the Lejirans, did not expect to be attacked, and was quickly overwhelmed and killed. This meant that the revanchist Thiyàdiynîcs, Thiranaedh's martial house, could ride on a public wave of anti-Lejiran sentiment with which they pulled power to themselves.

Thus, with the Maroon Cult facing off against a vengeful Ousamane I, the stage was set for yet another Lejiran border war.
