=== Viamont after Aluvia === By approximately 930 RC, [[Etien]] was the reigning monarch in Viamont.<ref name=HistoryOfAubereanVol5>2003/03 [[The History of Auberean/Volume V: New Arrivals (-540 to 13)]]</ref><ref name=ToBeAShadow>1999/11 [[Release]] - [[To Be A Shadow]]</ref> After Gharu'n was founded in 924 RC, [[Yasif ibn Salayyar]] traveled to the other nations of Ispar to convince the foreign monarchs of Gharu'n's sovereignty. According to the records of [[Mansur al-Rajan]], Etien held Yasif in his court for nearly half a year longer than what was considered proper.<ref name=ToBeAShadow /> Later, when Yasif was being held captive in Milantos, one of the rumors among the servants in the [[al-Nafalt]] was that Yasif was captured by Viamontian pirates after leaving the port of [[Mawwuz]].<ref name=ToBeAShadow /> <br /><br /> Later, during a time known in Gharu'ndim history as the [[Century of Storms]] (approximately 1003 RC to 1103 RC), Viamont began new military campaigns.<ref name=ZogblasterGharundimIntro>1999/11 [[Release]] - [[Zogblaster Archive/Heritage Groups/Gharu'ndim|Zogblaster Archive - Gharu'ndim Introduction]]</ref><ref name=OriginsOfViamont /> Viamontian corsairs raided Roulean ports around the Ironsea. By this time Viamont had a naval fleet large enough to transport their armies across the Ironsea, and with this ability, the legions of the Bull banner marched on Milantos and Gharu'n. The Milanteans repelled the invading Viamontians with a scorched-earth campaign, while the Gharu'ndim were unable to due to the instability caused by the Century of Storms.<ref name=OriginsOfViamont /> The Viamontians set up a puppet malik, [[Zahir ibn Ma'mun]], while they ruled Gharu'n from afar. Over time, Zahir murdered his rivals - all except a young lord named [[Jawhar al-Shamshir]]. Jawhar traveled the desert in secret, banding together his people. Eventually he defeated Zahir, drove the Viamontians from the shores of Gharu'n, and became the new Malik.<ref name=ZogblasterGharundimIntro /> <br /><br /> Another event which may have occurred during this period of military expeditions is that of Sir [[Borlac di Lotila]] and the [[Souia-Vey]] warriors of [[Vessenjhe]]. It is said that Sir Borlac met the Vessenjhe on the plains northwest of Gharu'n, and that he single-handedly slew every last Vessenjhe himself, wielding the powerful weapon which Borlac simply called [[Smite]].<ref name=Smite>2005/07 [[Throne of Destiny]] - [[Smite]]</ref>
