Editing Gharu'ndim Lore (section)

=== Century of Storms ===
Soon after the death of Yasif, Amul ibn Rakhil also died, poisoned at his own birthday celebration. Amul died without an heir, and the nation of Gharu'n fell into chaos. For the next 100 years, no fewer than 25 Maliks ruled the land. This period of time is known as the [[Century of Storms]].<ref name=ZogblasterGharundimIntro />
<br /><br />
Due to the chaos of this time, it is not clear who succeeded Amul ibn Rakhil. It is known that Mansur al-Rajan, the former guide to Yasif, served as the vizier to Malik [[Tu'azar ibn Amul]].<ref name=ToBeAShadow /> Although Tu'azar's name implies that he was the son of Amul ibn Rakhil, it is known that Amul died heirless.<ref name=ZogblasterGharundimIntro />

In 1018 RC, after some 15 years of chaos in Gharu'n, [[Ladriya bint Daum]] decided to leave Tirethas and return to her home in [[Taban]]. Halfway through her journey, Ladriya's caravan was attacked at night by band of nomads sent by the renegade Shayk [[Ridqidh]]. Ladriya was wounded badly but was saved by [[Tamsah ibn Jaidah]], who carried her away on his stallion.<ref name=SilifiOfCrimsonStars />
<br /><br />
After riding for six days, Tamsah and Ladriya arrived at the oasis of [[Shiryaz]]. They stayed there for almost two months while Ladriya recovered. On 6th of Solclaim, 1018 RC, Tamsah and Ladriya returned to the court of Taban at [[Nishadina]]. Ladriya ordered the forging of the Silifi of Crimson Stars, to be wielded by Tamsah. Ladriya went on to be become Malika, although her reign was likely short, as her life is described as brief but brilliant.<ref name=SilifiOfCrimsonStars />

During the Century of Storms, The al-Nafalt was razed. Near the end of the Century of Storms, the kingdom of [[Viamont]] sent armies to Gharu'n to invade.<ref name=ZogblasterGharundimIntro /><ref name=OriginsOfViamont>2004/11 [[On Bended Knee]] - [[Announcements - 2005/07 - Throne of Destiny (expansion)#Fiction|Throne of Destiny Fiction]]: [[The Origins and Current Disposition of Viamont]]</ref> The Viamontians installed [[Zahir ibn Ma'mun]] as a puppet leader, while they ruled Gharu'n from afar.<ref name=ZogblasterGharundimIntro />
<br /><br />
During his rule, Zahir ibn Ma'mun murdered all his rivals, except for a young lord named [[Jawhar al-Shamshir]]. Seeing what had become of his homeland, Jawhar traveled the desert in secret, banding together the people. Jawhar defeated Zahir ibn Ma'mun and drove the Viamontians from the shores of Gharu'n. He became the new Malik, and returned Gharu'n to the glory it had known in Yasif's time.<ref name=ZogblasterGharundimIntro />
