=== After the Manywar ===
 
In the three hundred years{{book ref|wb|32}} following the Manywar the kingdom of Hallandren prospered under theits new government, although over time corruption seeped in. Due to the system of breaths the most benevolent of the Returned died out quicker than their more selfish peers meaning over time the court was filled with the most selfish out of all the Returned.{{wob ref|4495}} The Priesthood also continued their activitesduties given to them by Peacegiver by cutting out the tongue of the God King and covering up the truth about their lineage.{{book ref|wb|58}} They covered up the removal of each God King with stories about how they healed the common people with their divine breath.{{book ref|wb|32}}

Relations between the new kingdom and Idris worsened over the years as the Northern Passes Idris had control over were very tempting targets for Hallandren.{{book ref|wb|1}} Relations were also poor as the region was viewed as a rebellious province by the Court of Gods and not a true nation.{{book ref|wb|1}} Despite this Idris remained powerful with many allies north of the mountains.{{wob ref|7407}} In order to try and maintain good relations king [[Dedelin]] negotiated a treaty where his eldest daughter would be sent to the Court once she was of age in order to introduce the Royal bloodline to the God Kings and further legitimise their authority. This was accepted by the court.{{book ref|wb|1}}
 
Over the centuries the control and subjugation of the Pahn Kahl people grew worse. Their oppression over time reached the stage in which many presumed its culture was extinct and that they also worshipped the Returned.{{book ref|wb|14}}{{wob ref|6964}} As the years went on its people grew tired of their position in Hallandren society and the few lowly jobs they were offered.{{book ref|wb|55}}{{book ref|wb|54}} Overtime talks of a rebellion began to spread and the Pahn Kahl began giving up their positions to other Pahn Kahl citizens in order to maintain their control in the court of Gods., Ofof particular note [[Bluefingers]] was given his job by his predecessor who was also in on the conspiracy.{{wob ref|7381}} Now in position as a lead scribe in the Court of Gods Bluefingers began to set in motion the plan to overthrow the Hallandren government. His hope was to incite a war between Hallandren and Idris and use the resulting chaos to allow Pahn Kahl to rise up in society.{{book ref|wb|57}}
 
Around this time period VaraTreledees began to go under the name of [[Denth]]. He befriended [[Tonk Fah]] and felt that he could fix him by teaching him how to handle his murderous tendencies.{{wob ref|7388}} The pair together took up mercenary work. Kalak took on his own alias of [[Vasher]] as a personal joke, Denth however does not find the reference amusing.{{wob ref|7138}} He added a sheet to Nightblood in order to control him better.{{wob ref|8410}}
 
Arsteel entered a relationship with [[Jewels]]. The pair would later join Denth and Tonk Fah as Arsteel was hoping of acting as a peace maker between him and Vasher so that the two could make amends.{{wob ref|6806}} Through circumstances unknown it happened that Arsteel and Vasher entered a duel with one another, Vasher however misunderstood his intentions. While Arsteel only intended to subdue Vasher and use this as a chance to finally make the pair work together again however Vasher instead interpeted Arsteel joining with Denth and the duel as an attempt to kill him.{{wob ref|7387}}{{wob ref|6806}} As a result the duel ended when Vasher successfully murdered Arsteel.{{wob ref|7387}} Upon discovering Arsteel's body Denth and his team decided to make him into a lifeless due to his skill as a swordsman in life. Denth was also motivated out of curiosity on if Returned could become Lifeless and Jewels wished to reunite with Arsteel in death.{{wob ref|4635}}{{wob ref|5838}}{{wob ref|6806}} They succeeded in their attempt and the end result was [[Clod]]. Jewels would continue their relationship through Clod.{{wob ref|6806}}
 
=== The Pahn Kahl Rebellion ===
==== Vahr's Rebellion ====
 
Prematurely another Pahn Kahl, [[Vahr]], began theirhis own rebellion against Hallandren. He had spent a decade getting the contacts needed for it{{book ref|wb|31}}{{wob ref|6020}} and had persuaded his fellow workers to grant him their breaths so that he could grow in power. They did so and the influx of breaths from fellow like minded people made him even more dedicated to the cause.{{wob ref|4633}} Vahr quickly rose up as a hero of the people and he got to work on creating an army to attack Hallandren.{{book ref|wb|1}}{{book ref|wb|19}} Along the way he received help from other nations worried about Hallandren,{{wob ref|6020}} including Idris,{{book ref|wb|17}} and various crime lords in [[T'Telir]].{{book ref|wb|31}}
 
Fearing it would draw too much attention to his own efforts Bluefingers leaked Vahr's location to the Hallandren authorities and had him arrested.{{wob ref|6983}} As a result Vahr was apprehended and the rebellion fell apart. The allies Vahr had recruited didn't truly care for his cause and so with his arrest the movement stopped.{{book ref|wb|19}} The Kingdom of Idris was displeased with this as they had hoped that the rebellion would have taken attention away from them for a time, instead they found even more focus was put on them than ever before as Hallandren grew paranoid about its potential enemies. In order to stave off a potential war king Dedelin moved to fulfill his contract with [[Susebron]] but hesitated to send [[Vivenna]]. It was worried that if they sent her the court of Gods could use her as a hostage and Dedelin was too attached to Vivenna in order to sacrifice her. Instead it was decided that it would be better to send [[Siri]] to fulfill the contract.{{book ref|wb|1}}

After the failed rebellion Vahr was taken in for questioning. Hearing of Vahr's arrest [[Vasher]] saw he had a chance to get another large influx of breath and so set out to contact him. Vasher picked a fight at a bar and punched a priest, landing him in the God King's jail awaiting execution, he then took this chance to break out of his cell andHe persuaded Vahr to grant him his breaths so that Hallandren would not gain them, inand returnoffered heto promisedin toreturn kill Vahr so that he could not be tortured for additional information about Pahn Kahl's efforts.{{book ref|wb|prologue}}
