| − | The Severance unofficially occurred in the 350th year of Graldix's reign. Enfeebled, with advancing senility, Graldix lost control of three of the five groups who broke fealty and Severed their clans from the Odaraxta. The two remaining groups, embarrassed by their own clan"Banner" pretenses, remained supportive of Graldix as he took 30 years to finally die.
| |
| | | | |
| − | There was a great gathering of the clan at the time of the great leader's death. It was a huge camp with members of all five clans, many of them waring with each other and other forces in the world. There were weeks of discussions, games, songs, legend building, secret assaults, assasinations, and eventually open warfare. The five clans were unable to decide on a leader.
| |
| | | | |
| − | The details are extensive as they document centuries of family battles and scandals but boil down to a few points:
| |
| − | *Four clans were adamant that they did not want '''Asarxa of the Kalota''' as their ''Bannerlord''. He was arrogant even for Adasks. Violent and aggrssive.
| |
| − | **Hagalta slew Asarxa of the Kalota claiming the clan.
| |
| − | *Four Clans were not eager for '''Jaxta of the Shaxta''' because of his personal affiliation with the ''[[Cult of Entropy]]'', a Chaos cult long associated with the end of existence, to "Immanentize the Endless" to bring on the reign of formless Entropy.
| |
| − | *Two of the Clans, the '''Ansixir''' and the '''Yalix''', while militant as any Adask, had vast interconnections with the Southern Winds and Stairs and with other races and nations that were not interested in Adask warfare. Neither wanted the leadership and advocated '''Severance of the Banner''' in favor of mutually acknowledging Clan Leadership.
| |
| − | *'''Yagat of the Trixta''', actively opposed to '''Asarxa of the Kalota''' & '''Jaxta of the Shaxta''', an unable to sway '''Ansixir''' and the '''Yalix''', voted in favor of the Severance, at which point it was accepted by the other two clans, if grudgingly.
| |
| | | | |
| − | ===The Reunion===
| |
| | | | |
| − | '''Hagalta''' has declared himself Bannerlord of the Odaraxta. He seized the Kolata for unclear reasons that that were acceptable for establishing ownership of the clan. If the Reunion is approved by clan and Winds the others will have to swear fealty or die.
| |
| | | | |
| − | The methods of establishing dominance include debate, ritual, Stylized Mock Combats and political intrigues.
| |
| | | | |
| − | Current information is that Hagalta is either in the Dungeons of Amber or in the Black Zone world of the Fane of Zilla.
