Editing Haebrean Lore (section)

== History ==

=== Early History ===
The first mention of the Haebrean as a distinct people comes from a  [[Falatacot]] text. In it, the Haebrean, along with the [[Yalaini]] and [[Dericostian]]s, were said to have driven the Falatacot to the island of [[Killiakta]], or Dereth as it is known by now.<ref>2006/11 [[Remembering the Past]] - [[Words of the High Matriarch]]</ref> This event is presumed to happen either before or during the [[Arelis Eipoth]]. 

=== The Grael Rebellion ===

In the fifth year of the reign of His Majesty King [[Braletain]] of Haebrous, a tribe of [[Ruschk]] in the frigid northern edge of the Kingdom of Haebrous is slain to make way for a mercantile company's gemstone excavations. This native tribe called themselves "Mukkir" and put up such a ferocious fight against the Haebreans that Braletain's soldiers exterminated every one, save for one single warrior.<ref name="Book of Xik Minru" >2005/09 - [[Under Cover of Night]] - [[Book of Xik Minru]]</ref> This only survivor of this tribe, [[Grael]], is brought back to the Royal Menagerie.<ref name=GraelRebellion>2005/08 - [[Friend and Foe]] - [[The Grael Rebellion]]</ref> [[Carraida]], the young Queen of Haebrous, begged her husband to send Grael to gladiatorial pits for her amusement. Grael goes on to be undefeated, killing all that challenge him and eating their hearts.<ref name=GraelRebellion>2005/08 [[Friend and Foe]] - [[The Grael Rebellion]]</ref> 

Two seasons later, The [[Grael Rebellion]] occurs. Grael and some of his fellow slaves overpower the arena guards and take over the entire building. Ten thousand Haebreans and no small number of visiting Yalaini and Dericostians die. Queen Carraida, who was present at the arena, is killed by Grael in an act of vengeance. The rebellion spills out into the streets. On the third day of the rebellion the royal army corners the slaves in the West Market. The King orders royal mages to incinerate the entire market square with a rain of magical fire that lasts almost a full day. Grael, however, escapes.<ref>2005/08 - [[Friend and Foe]] - [[Account of the Spear of Mukkir]]</ref><ref name="Book of Xik Minru" >2005/09 - [[Under Cover of Night]] - [[Book of Xik Minru]]</ref><ref name=BitterWinter>2005/12 [[Through Sacrifice, Strength]] - [[Our Bitter Winter]]</ref>

Twenty years after The Grael Rebellion, King Braletain is a ruined and wasted man, a shadow of the strong and admirable leader he had been. His weakness has emboldened the ever-grasping Dericostians, there is no clear and qualified successor, and [[Lord Alashorn]] fears war will come soon between the Kingdoms.<ref name=GraelRebellion/>

=== The Millenium War ===

The Dericost Kingdom at the height of its power attacked its neighbors Haebrous and Yalain, igniting the [[Millennium War]].<ref name=AgesEmp>2001/11 [[Dark Majesty]] - [[AC:DM CD Lore/Ages of the Empyrean|Ages of the Empyrean]]</ref>
At some point, Braletain no longer rules over Haebrous. [[Jailne]] is the King of Haebrous at the end of the Millennium War. He defeated, together with Empress [[Alaidain]] of the [[Yalaini]], the [[Dericost]] faction of the [[Latzimestal]]<ref name="AC:DMBestiary">2001/11 [[Dark Majesty]] - [[AC:DM_CD_Lore/Bestiary/Derethian_Bestiary#Undead|Bestiary: Undead]]</ref>
The final battle opened with the Haebrous warrior [[Leikotha Arenir]] and the combined armies of the Haebrous and Yalaini attacking the living and undead armies of the Dericost. With Dericost attention occupied by the assault, a Falatacot woman who had escaped the Lords' purge led [[Jailne]] and [[Alaidain]] through the trackless tunnels of [[Vasmora]] into the palace of [[Sarvien II]]. In a pitched battle, the Haebrous and Yalaini forces destroyed Sarvien and his Lich advisors, but the struggle costed Jailne his life. <ref>2000/08 [[Taste of Twilight]] - [[Mu-Miyah Note Translation]]</ref><ref name="LayLeikotha">[[AC:DM CD Lore/Dericost Texts/The Lay of Leikotha]]</ref> One of the most famous warriors of the Haebrous is [[Leikotha Arenir]].<ref>2000/10 [[Hollow Victory]] - [[Ashbane]]'s Description</ref><ref name="LayLeikotha">[[AC:DM CD Lore/Dericost Texts/The Lay of Leikotha]]</ref>

In DE 6174, the [[Ice Throne]] of Dericost is overturned by the victorious Haebrous and Yalain.<ref name=ScrawledNoteAerbaxLab> 2001/04 [[A Reign of Stone]] - [[Scrawled Note (Aerbax Laboratory)]]</ref><ref name=AgesEmp/> After nearly 1,000 years of conflict, the Haebrous and Dericost lands are devastated.<ref name=HistoryAubereanVolI>[[The History of Auberean/Volume I: Empires Clashing (-30,000 to -9,000)]]</ref>

=== Merging with the [[Yalaini]] Empire ===

Somewhere during the [[Vacari Eipoth]], the kingdom of Haebrous amalgamates into the Seaborne Empire.<ref name=AgesEmp/> With their lands largely untouched by the war, the Yalaini initiated a worldwide rebuilding program. Their influence eventually caused the Haebrous to lose their unique cultural identity, although the Haebrous would always be known for their stoicism and cynicism.<ref name=HistoryAubereanVolI>[[The History of Auberean/Volume I: Empires Clashing (-30,000 to -9,000)]]</ref>

Sometime during the [[Rhethis Eipoth]], [[Ilservian Palacost]]'s forces assault the Empire's holdings in the Haebrous continent. The Yalaini forces lead a desperate retreat from the Haebrous lands. In a bid to provide them with more time to make good their retreat, the [[Council of Five]] confronts the Shadow mage leading the assault against the Haebrous town of [[Dernehale]]. During the battle, the mage reveals her name to be Elithra of [[Daralet]]. She is said to be an Haebrean mage.<ref name="A Brief History for Travelers">2000/11 - [[Should the Stars Fall/The Child of Daralet--Leafcull to Frostfell, PY 11 / (November to December, 2000)]]</ref> Finally, through the combined might of the Council, this powerful mage is defeated. Her death sows confusion among the Shadows and gives the Yalaini forces time to evacuate the town.<ref name="A Brief History for Travelers">2000/11 - [[Should the Stars Fall/The Child of Daralet--Leafcull to Frostfell, PY 11 / (November to December, 2000)]]</ref>

Lord Cashtal Ronain of Haebrous<ref name="Aerlinthe Record">2000/07 - [[To Raise a Banner of Flame]] - [[Aerlinthe Record]]</ref> marries Alhallie Realaidain, daughter of [[Clari Loritane]] and [[Caerlin II]], Mistress of [[Elancia]] and [[Aerlinthe]], the later Empress [[Cellaurai]] in TE 477. His last name is changed to Realaidain.<ref name="Aerlinthe Record">2000/07 - [[To Raise a Banner of Flame]] - [[Aerlinthe Record]]</ref> After Empress [[Cellaurai]] disappears while on a tour of Haebrous in HE 232, he succeeds her as Emperor of the [[Yalaini]], and names himself Emperor [[Kellin II]], "The Righteous Lord".<ref name="Aerlinthe Record">2000/07 - [[To Raise a Banner of Flame]] - [[Aerlinthe Record]]</ref>

The Haebrous, like their allies the [[Yalaini]] were send to portal space by the [[Sundering]] in HE 647, after the [[Olthoi]] invaded [[Auberean]]. This included the Nali [[Valind]].<ref name=AgesEmp>2001/11 [[Dark Majesty]] - [[AC:DM CD Lore/Ages of the Empyrean|Ages of the Empyrean]]</ref>

=== In Dereth ===
[[Asheron]] managed to free some of the [[Empyrean]]s from portal space during the [[From Darkness, Light]] event.
However, the only know Haebrean in Dereth is the Seer [[Lord Tyragar]].<ref>2010/11 [[From Darkness, Light]]} - [[Announcements - 2010/11 - From Darkness, Light#Teaser|Teaser]]</ref>
