=== Manywar and Subjugation ===

Years later, Pahn Kahl's neighbor Hanald gave control of its [[Lifeless]] army to a man named [[Kalad]].{{book ref|wb|32}} When a Returned had a vision of a coming war, the warmonger [[Kalad]] began an aggressive campaign to win the war by attacking first. Eventually Kalad seized control of the nation himself. The Pahn Kahl hold that this is the fault of rulers who worked hard to develop new Awakening techniques and Lifeless, but were surprised to realize they could be turned against them. Pahn Kahl likely joined the coalition of countries named the [[Pahn Unity]], a group of kingdoms united in their desire to defeat Hanald.{{book ref|wb|26}} The Pahn Unity was defeated, and the nation of Pahn Kahl subjugated beneath their control,{{book ref|wb|57}} made into workers and slaves.{{book ref|wb|55}} Eventually Kalad, then known as Peacegiver, came to regret the bloodshed{{annotation ref|wb|chapter=26}} and ended the war,{{book ref|wb|epilogue}} allowing the kingdom of [[Idris]] to break away with the former royal family at its head.{{book ref|wb|32}} Pahn Kahl survived the conflict, however it remained under the control of Hanald, newly renamed Hallandren, which was now under the rule of the Returned. As time passed, Pahn Kahl became heavily associated with the entire nation of Hallandren, with few outside of Pahn Kahl understanding or caring about the difference between the two.{{book ref|wb|15}}
