Manywar
The Manywar was a global conflict on Nalthis that involved the nations of Hanald, Kuth, Huth, Pahn Kahl, Tedradel, and Gys. It occurred about three hundred years before the Pahn Kahl rebellion.
Roots of the Conflict
The Tears of Edgli
The Tears of Edgli had made Hanald an economic powerhouse. The dyes that they produced were vibrant and prized throughout Nalthis. However, the Tears could only grow in Hallendran's climate. Other nations were jealous and wished to take control of Hallendran so they could profit from the dyes.
Awakening Developments
The process of Awakening Lifeless had already been developed before the Manywar. However, the Commands that had been known previously required fifty Breaths to create a single Lifeless. This arrested the ability for large amounts of Lifeless troops to be used in combat, it was simply too costly.
However, Shashara, one of the Five Scholars, made a discovery. She developed a Command that allowed for the creation of a Lifeless with a single Breath.
Vasher's Prophecy
At that point, Talaxin, another of the Five Scholars who was also known as Strifelover, had a vision.

Late Events
The Battle of Twilight Falls
The battle of Twilight Falls was the final engagement of the Manywar. It was the only battle of the Manywar where Nightblood was used in the battle. The sheer number of casualities caused by Shashara wielding Nightblood was devastating. Over the course of the battle the leader of the Pahn Unity, the coalition of nations against Hallant, was killed.
Death of Shashara
Vasher was horrified by the destruction caused by the use of Nightblood. Shashara planned on revealing the secrets of how to create Type IV Biochromatic Entities to the rest of Nalthis. Vasher decided that he couldn't allow that to occur, he couldn't allow other Awakened swords to become available to other nations. He and Shashara argued about it, and he ended up murdering her with Nightblood to stop her. Denth was furious at the death of his sister, he defected from Vasher's side and never forgave him for it.Cite error: Invalid <ref>

Legacy
While the war itself was over, the tensions between the nations never fully vanished. Tedradel's hatred of Hallendran, in particular, would never completely fade.
Destruction of Hallant
Formation of Idris
After the House of Idris and its servants fled T'Telir, they moved to the northern highlands of Hallant. They established a kingdom there, named Idris after the family. The Idrians, who had previously experimented with Awakening, turned their backs on the art as a whole. The Idrians brought their religion, Austrism, with them. They used its tenets to make Awakening sound immoral and evil. This fear of Awakening impacted Idrians greatly, their
