<1398>
Damien enters Trefel and murders Rey II. Leopuld gives himself up to Imperial forces in place of his son. Leopuld is taken to the Imperial Seat.
Fearing a lack of stern authority would signal the end of the Empire and hoping to halt and subversive element before it can come to fruition, Frundhul condemns Leopuld and sends him to the Callouse Marshes.
Leopuld is executed by Drenundson.
Cyfurrel, son of Cyfurrel, takes command of the army left behind by Damien at Damien's Wait, using the name Cyfurrel the Younger and marches toward the Imperial Seat, through Trefel. The elder Cyfurrel travels ahead to help Damien find sanctuary in Trefel.
Lynn vows support for Cyfurrel the Younger and joins his retinue on the unopposed march through Trefel.
Cyfurrel the Younger, now also using the name Myron Cyfurrel, arrives at the Imperial Seat and challenges Frundhul for the Empire, citing his mother's more direct link to Myron II and Myron III. No formal 'rules of inheritance' had been established in the empire. The empires most base origins, the Tortund Valley, doesn't even use inheritance laws. Some parts of the eastern Drap Expanse do trace inheritance through daughters, though, expanding on Cyfurrel the Younger's legitimacy.
Cyfurrel the Younger's force of around 6,000 men (enlarged during the march through Trefel) and Frundhul's hastily gathered Imperial Seat defensive force of 8,000 men battle near Grefurn Mint. Frundhul's troops are scattered.
