The pretext for the war had its origins in border disputes between the [[Byzatium|Byzallian]] Government and their neighbours the [[Bardeezan|Bardeezans]] in the Vectis System. For years the Byzallians had been taking many Bardeezans as ‘Hotch’ (slave) labour. In time, the hard pressed Bardeezans turned to their powerful allies the [[Pythron|Pythrons]] for support. | The pretext for the war had its origins in border disputes between the [[Byzatium|Byzallian]] Government and their neighbours the [[Bardeezan|Bardeezans]] in the Vectis System.

The new start of the larger, heavily reinforced second invasion was not promising for the Pythro-Bardeezan Alliance. Despite their success at Chetz Sea, they were right back where they had started from. The de facto Byzallian leader – Telent, knowing that the newly reinforced Pythrons would be a formidable opponent, attempted to negotiate a peace treaty. LeNoir was not open to negotiations, as he wished to restore his reputation in the eyes of his Masters on Pythro. He thus proceeded towards Pride City, intending to defeat the main Byzallian army. Telent was forced to bring his army back to his capital, and the biggest battle of war began. Casualties, both military and civilian, were heavy. Perhaps a million souls perished in the bloodbath. In the end, the sheer might of the giant Pythron warriors carried the day. Telent’s Byzallian forces were defeated decisively. | The new start of the larger, heavily reinforced second invasion was not promising for the Pythro-Bardeezan Alliance.

After the battle of Pride City, the remnants of the Byzallian army dispersed, most of the leading officers tendered their submission, and Telent (pictured right) became a fugitive. LeNoir set about reducing Pride City to rubble, and searching for the last Byzallian leader. | After the battle of Pride City, the remnants of the Byzallian army dispersed, most of the leading officers tendered their submission, and Telent (pictured right) became a fugitive.
