The '''Manywar''' was a global conflict on [[Nalthis]] that involved the nations of [[Hanald]] (the original name of [[Hallandren]]), [[Kuth]], [[Huth]], [[Pahn Kahl]], [[Tedradel]], and [[Gys]].{{book ref|
== Roots of the Conflict ==
=== The Tears of Edgli ===
The [[Tears of Edgli]] had made Hanald an economic powerhouse.{{book ref|
=== Awakening Developments ===
The process of [[Awakening]] [[Lifeless]] had already been developed before the Manywar. However, the [[Command]]s that had been known previously required fifty [[Breath]]s to create a single Lifeless.{{book ref|
However, one of the [[Five Scholars]], [[Shashara]], was spurred by [[Yesteel|Yesteel's]] development of [[ichor-alcohol]] into making a new discovery.{{book ref|
New Commands were also being discovered rapidly, a golden age of Awakening took place, due in part to the Five Scholars.{{book ref|
=== The Returned's Prophecy ===
At that point, one of the [[Returned]] had a vision of war.{{book ref|
== Early Events ==
=== Seizure of Hanald ===
After his fellow Returned had a vision of war, Vasher, then known as Talaxin or Kalad, used his knowledge of BioChroma and Awakening to raise up a vast army.{{book ref|
=== The Split of Five Scholars ===
As the Manywar began, the Five Scholars each seemed to go their own way.{{book ref|
=== Creation of Nightblood ===
:''Main article: [[Nightblood]]''
Working together, Vasher and Shashara successfully managed to develop Nightblood, a [[BioChroma#Type IV|Type IV Biochromatic Entity]].{{book ref|
== Late Events ==
=== The Battle of Twilight Falls ===
The
▲The battle of Twilight Falls was the final engagement of the Manywar.{{ref|b|warbreaker|c|26}} It was the only battle of the Manywar where Nightblood was used in the battle.{{annotation ref|warbreaker|chapter=26}} The sheer number of casualties caused by Shashara wielding Nightblood was devastating. Over the course of the battle the leader of the Pahn Unity, the coalition of nations against Hanald, was killed.{{ref|b|warbreaker|c|26}}
=== Death of Shashara ===
Vasher was horrified by the destruction caused by the use of Nightblood.{{annotation ref|
== Resolution ==
=== Return of Kalad's Phantoms ===
At some point during the war, Vasher grew sick of battle and war, possibly due to what he saw Nightblood do in battle. He decided to end the Manywar by returning his Phantoms from battle to Hallandren. He took control of his own nation in an effort to end the fighting, which ended up being successful.{{book ref|
=== Peacegiver's Treasure ===
:''Main article: [[Peacegiver's Treasure]]
Vasher also gave up the majority of his Breaths, around fifty thousand or so{{book ref|
=== Shattering of Hanald ===
==== Formation of Idris ====
After the House of Idris and its servants fled T'Telir, they moved to the northern highlands of Hanald.{{book ref
==== Formation of Hallandren ====
In the wake of the Idrian Royal family's departure, and Vasher's step down from military dictatorship, the Cult of the Returned took control of the new nation, naming it Hallandren.{{book ref|
== Legacy ==
=== Kalad's Phantoms ===
Over time, the specifics of Kalad's Phantoms were forgotten and they became known as the D'Denir,{{book ref|
=== Lingering Tensions Between Nations ===
While the war itself was over, the tensions between the nations never fully vanished. Tedradel's hatred of Hallandren, in particular, would remain strong well over three centuries later.{{book ref|
=== Poor Relations Between Idris & Hallandren ===
Idris and Hallandren would keep an uneasy peace for the next three hundred years. Since the Royals took the blood of [[Vo]], the first Returned, with them, they had a legitimate claim to the throne of T'Telir, a worry to many Hallandren.{{book ref|
Eventually, about twenty years before the [[Pahn Kahl rebellion]], King [[Dedelin]] of Idris and [[Susebron]] of Hallandren arranged a treaty where Dedelin would send one of his daughters to marry the God King, in hopes of forestalling war and easing the rising tensions between the two nations.{{book ref|
