Wishing to test out the affects of his reforms, the veiled king Toyollo, marshals his forces against the Abhidist rebels of Masodil. What better way to increase your pedigree than with a few victories under your belt. The influx of slaves will certainty wet the whistles of the new officer corps. Unfortunately those who stand against the first legion will promptly be enslaved and shipped to the Inyoni crescent to help build a variety of public works projects.
