Revakgol Consolidation Wars

{
  "aliases": [
    "Wars of the Single Flame",
    "Reknitting"
  ],
  "content": {
    "causes": "Dual courts, rogue Furaktuz, and unpaid legions of the Ashen Regency make rule-by-bargain unsustainable. Merchants, temple Kovahiil, and exhausted Dovjun demand a single seal of law. Victorious reunifiers treat flexibility as the disease that nearly killed the founder\u2019s work.",
    "course": "A sequence of campaigns and forced accords (not one continuous front) reasserts Vusokaar\u2019s writ over the eastern core and near-north provinces. Northern counter-court leaders are killed, co-opted, or reduced to subordinate Paathur roles under stricter imperial appointment. Roads and garrison towns are rebuilt with an eye to preventing dual capitals. Legal scribes carve sharpened versions of the Code of Burned Stone: rights and ceilings by bloodline and Kori path; Flame Throne eligibility framed as Saarotsos inheritance of Kaemisyol\u2019s will.",
    "legacy": "Doctrine over memory: Consolidation is taught as strength recovered, not as fear of the Ashen century. The hardened caste order becomes the cage later generations live inside \u2014 fuel for peak-era stagnation and, centuries later, for purists who will reject Aasa Kairtis as a winged violation of Burned Stone.",
    "outcome": "Single Aalki authority restored. Dovaarein returns to advisory-traditional role rather than open regency. Daiintuz sectors reorganized. The empire is smaller than Kaemisyol\u2019s late dream but more bureaucratically coherent than during the fracture.",
    "summary": "Revakgol reunifies after the Ashen Regency: core eastern territories are reconsolidated and the caste structure hardens into imperial doctrine. Saarotsos dominance becomes law within the realm \u2014 not across Silgolt as a whole. Even then the empire remains an eastern power, far short of continental control.",
    "territorial_change": "Reknit of eastern core and selected northern provinces. Permanent abandonment of some far posts from the Regency shrink. No claim to all Silgolt. Stage set for later Fourth Age expansion toward peak, not immediate continental empire."
