== History ==
▲
Near the end of the [[War of Reckoning]], [[Aesudan]]'s negligence and [[Pai]]'s accusations caused the city to erupt in riots. The [[Kholinar Wall Guard]] managed to restore order to the city and exiled all parshmen beyond its limits before the first [[Everstorm]] arrived. Soon afterwards, the Fused gathered the transformed parshmen and begun the [[siege of Kholinar]]. With high number of refugies coming in from the entire princedom and the silence from the palace, the city quickly became overwhelmed, with the various services collapsing and gangs roaming the city. The chief forces within Kholinar at the time were the Wall Guard and the Cult of Moments. In addition, the city was under the influence of two [[Unmade]], [[Ashertmarn]] - who influenced the Cult of Moments and caused the breakdown of the Lighteye structures in the city - and [[Sja-Anat]], who corrupted the various unmade.
