Military: War
The Crisis of the 4 Kings that engulfed Salineas in 346 KE. A young Mer’s ruling council decided to split the kingdom amongst themselves, one ruling from the Capital, one taking the navy and holding court on an island to the south, and the last moving inland and founding the township of Cascada. The young Mer was secreted out of the castle and raised in Brightmoon until they were of age, returning and confronting the three ministers, only the King of Cascada bent the knee, an event that has led the rulers of that town to use the title Prince or Princess ever since. The other two fought back, starting a war that ended in 367 KE with the defeat and execution of both ministers and the return of the rightful king to the throne of Salineas.
