Apex War

The Apex War was a years-long conflict between the Stratos Throne of the Taloned Highlands and the Court of the Lambent Path of Aeshanadoor.

Known events
In approximately 823 PD, the Stratos Throne and the Court of the Lambent Path engaged in a years-long war that left both sides "exhausted, expended, and without victory". They eventually reached a truce that continued at least until 843 PD, as both factions "continue the slow work to rebuild their societies to their former glory".

During the conflict, both sides destroyed their skyports and did not immediately replace them. As of 843 PD, the only officially remaining skyports in Marquet are in Ank'Harel and Jrusar, neither of which was involved in the war. Stratos Throne hired mercanaries of the Hellcatch Valley, including the Paragon's Call. ruiner-crawlers were extensively used, the production of which heavily subsided following the end of the conflict. Accustomed working odd jobs in the Material Plane to garner funding for their project, Ira Wendagoth worked for both sides for a time before aligning more permanently with the Stratos Throne for the remainder of the conflict. Otohan Thull was a legendary warrior and tactician in the Apex War, on behalf of the Stratos Throne.

Aftermath
Some time after the conflict, the minor Mahaan House Kade (with roots in livestock raising in the Taloned Highlands under the Stratos Throne) left for Jrusar. General Otohan Thull vanished from a public sight, appearing in Bassuras.

Exemplar Mani Drogidon, a hero who fought for the Lambent Path, was honored with a statue that was erected in Yios as part of the rejuvenation effort of the city.
