▲Idris was one nation with Hallandren until the [[Manywar]], when the royals refused to support the conflicts that led up to the war.{{book ref|wb|
Twenty years before the events of the [[Pahn Kahl rebellion]], [[Dedelin]]'s father was assassinated, and he inherited the throne. King Dedelin's first official act was to negotiate a treaty with [[Susebron]] promising to send his daughter (ostensibly [[Vivenna]], though this was not stated specifically) to the [[Court of Gods]] to marry him when Vivenna turned twenty-two, thereby reintroducing the bloodline of the royals into Hallandren's own ruling line. When the time came, however, Dedelin could not bring himself to send his beloved daughter to what he was sure would be her death, so he sent [[Siri]] instead.{{book ref|wb|1}}
During that time of deteriorating relations, [[Lemex]], the chief Idrian spy in [[T'Telir]], acted on Dedelin's orders in an attempt to destabilize Hallandren and undermine its ability to wage war. Unfortunately, he was oblivious to the fact that [[Denth]] and his [[Denth's crew|crew]], whom he had hired to aid in his efforts, were manipulating him; Lemex's actions were actually inflaming the already considerable tensions.{{wob ref|6795}} Vivenna continued his work, also in the name of helping Idris and also unaware of Denth's true motivations.{{book ref|wb|17}}

While Idrians consider themselves a separate nation from Hallandren, Hallandren considers Idris to be rebel-controlled land still within its borders. This is the main source of tension between the two nations, a tension that is kept in check during the first twenty years of Dedelin's reign by his treaty with Susebron that promises to send one of his daughters to the Court of Gods to marry the God King.{{book ref|wb|1}} Because King Dedelin fears war, though, he establishes Lemex as the head of his spy network in T'Telir and closely monitors the information Lemex sends.{{book ref|wb|9}} Idris' armies are harried by Vendis raids and are no match in general for the Lifeless army of Hallandren, and [[Vahr]]'s failed rebellion has renewed Hallandren's focus on its enemies. Due to these factors, General [[Yarda]] advises Dedelin to do what they must to delay war at least until winter, when heavy snows can be another of their allies; Dedelin decides to send Siri to fulfill the treaty and stall the process of war for a little longer. In the meantime, Yarda discusses riling up the remnants of Vahr's rebels and approaching [[Tedradel]] about gaining their support.{{book ref|wb|1}}
