The Great War — Part IV: The Sacrifice of Al’Kerim

For twelve years Al’Kerim holds the Coalition together—until an assassin kills him on the eve of a decisive battle, turning grief into resolve.

The Great War — Part IV: The Sacrifice of Al’Kerim

In 267, the Treaty of the Coalition marked the beginning of a united rebellion against the Prescient Empire.

Al’Kerim, High Emissary of Keryssia, became one of the Coalition’s most prominent leaders. For twelve long years, the Coalition fought fiercely across Ultera, and Al’Kerim’s wisdom and strategy shaped many victories.

In 279, as the Coalition prepared a decisive battle against the Empire’s stronghold in Null City, tragedy struck: Al’Kerim was assassinated by an unknown assailant.

The loss sent shockwaves through the Coalition—but it did not break them. His death hardened their will to end the Empire, inspiring more allies to join the cause.
