Editing Viamontian Lore (section)

=== Civil War ===
Karlun's son, [[Elous I]], and later his grandson, [[Elous II]], continued this unification of Viamont through marriages with the other clans, and began a royal bloodline. There were a few tribes that resisted the unification. The tribes that resisted were mostly the powerful tribes that had the most to lose by bowing to a central authority. Most notable among these resisting tribes were Bellenni and Lotili.<ref name=OriginsOfViamont />

During the reign of Elous II, the resisting tribes formed an alliance of the their own. This resistance was led jointly by the shaman-wizard Bassano of the Bellenni and the warrior matron Pova of the Lotili. In the first pitched battle between the two sides, King Elous II died in personal combat with the two warlords. With the defeat of Elous II, hopes of defeating the resisting tribes vanished, and a Viamontian Civil War began. The war lasted almost 100 years. Throughout the war, tribes changed sides to best suit their interests. While the intensity of the war fluctuated, skirmishes took place more or less continuously somewhere in the peninsula.<ref name=OriginsOfViamont />

The civil war concluded in a battle in the foothills south of [[Corcosa]]. The battle lasted for three days, until there were not enough soldiers to continue fighting. In the end, King [[Elous V]] held enough of a tactical advantage to force the surrender from Bellenni and Lotili, but not enough of an advantage to see the victory he wanted - the eradication of the Bellenni and Lotili tribes.<ref name=OriginsOfViamont />
