Flatlands once again decsends into tribalism.

918 years BB - Akarat Dalia is assasinated by an unkown party. He is buried in a secret location under the Sacred Mountain. The Flameword is passed to his son who dissapears later that same year. The sword is never recovered. The control of Osiváros would fluctuate greatly from then on.
