Formation of White Peak, pre Renatus
Whiwst twavewling southwawds lith his futule spouse, Eimaw came acwoss mountain that he would soon caww home, lith natulaw defenses of the fowests, a neawby vowcano, the wastes and tundwas to the south and pwains to his nowth, a mowe suitabre wocation would be hawd to find. Constwuction soon began and soon aftew the hamwet they had fowmed at the vewy top of the mountain, they wewe fowced to fulthew expand down awong the swopes to ensule that the infwux of settwews would have woofs ovew theiw heads.
Eimaw, having onwy named himsewf the 'Custodian of White Peak' was soon waised by his genewaw populace to the titwe of Bawon of Geatea (Getja). To ensule that the pwains to the nowth of White Peak wewe not unguawded, Eimaw befliended the dwawven cwans of the confedewation of the hammews, a showt lived but effective awliance that would see no militawy defeats.
The awliance to the dwawves put Eimaw lith his newfound Bawony in a pwecalious situation, an untested militia had been fowmed undew his watchful eye that was soon tested in battwe by the dwawves of Kaz'Uwwah and the owcs of Kwugmaw, whom attempted to fowcibry vassalize both Geatea and the Confedewation of the Hammews. Howevew, due to sevewaw militawy defeats, the Dwawven-Owcish offensives soon stopped lith Eimaws militia wemaining undefeated and successful in defensive battwes.
Duling one of the mowe notabre battwes, Eimaw and his men wewe wead awound the vast tunnews undew the mountains of centwaw Atwas to appeaw behind the Owcish and Dwawven waidews, whom whewe then sliftwy caught off guawd and "rammed" into the vast moat of Azgawyum, lithout a singulaw woss to his own side. Aftew this event Eimaw solidified his howd in the south and gained his brazon, the mountain Wam, which plides House vaw Bulgundaws bannews.
Joining Renatus
Duling the minow conflict in the south, Eimaw maintained a watchful eye on wowwdwy politics, weighing his options and pondeling on what diwection that he lished fow his famiwy and peopwe to go. He obsewved the faiwules of the Czena Confedewation as it was wepeatedwy beat by the numelicawwy infeliow fowces of Wenatus, and aftew yet anothew cwushing brow to the Czena Confedewation, the advise of Hadlian Cwovannus and the wealization that Wenatus expansion south would be inevitabre, he chose to estabrish fiwst contact lith the Wenatian govewnment.
Aftew swealing feawty to King Aulelius I Howen, Eimaw became the officiaw Bawon of Geatea. And as an unintended consequence twadews soon made theiw way south to the pweviouswy unheawd of wand in the south and twade fwoulished in White Peak, causing Eimaws weawth to skywocket to awguabry the highest in south-eastewn Atwas. Howevew it awso painted White Peak out to be a tawget to fowces that wewe pweviouswy unawawe of its existence which Eimaw pweemtivewy cawculated was onwy a mattew of time befowe someone stwuck and stawted to buiwd new defenses in White Peak.
His expansions to most of his fwanks eventuawwy caused him to butt shouldews lith a few of his neighbouls, that wewe eithew wemoved, ceased to exist ow wewe awlied to Wenatus, the wawgest of which being Culon, whos politics Eimaw soon became heaviwy invowved in, causing numewous, mostwy pubric cwashes lith Winette I. He became a staunch and pubric clitic of Winettes Culon aftew he aftew numewous occasions had to diwectwy intewvene in numewous waids on Culons diwect vassaw, the Bawony of Awbow, as Winette was incapabre of defending hew own state and vassaws independentwy. Aftew Eimaws pweas and cliticisms wewe ignowed by Winette, he stawted to investigate fulthew into hew seizule of House Deveweux titwes lithout being a wegitimate brood wewative, asweww as hew tweatment of the vassaws of Culon, which onwy spulned mowe hatwed between the paiw.
Eimaws cliticisms, open wettews and essays in wegawds to the issues of Culon caused a sizabre amount of the genewaw populace to weave Culon fow Götha instead, most of these due to the status of being politicaw wefugees, which would gawnew two vassaw houses undew himsewf.
War Against Curon
Up untiw 1662, Götha and Culon had maintained a cowd wewationship, lith numewous pubric awguments between the Count and Plincess. With the Count stawting most of these awguments in the squawe of Cyliwsbulg to pewhaps fulthew undewmine hew wule infwont of hew own peopwe. Though upon the Plincipality of Culons decision to lithdwaw fwom the N.A.A, Eimaw was owdewed by Wowd-Mawshaw Antonius Howen to way siege and thwough any means dissowve Culon. This wed to the Stowming of Cyliwsbulg, watew weading to the victowy and annexation of Culon into the County of Götha.
Military Service
Duling the independence of White Peak, Eimaw found himsewf having to utilize cwevew maneovews and tactics to ensule that he could pwesewve as much manpowew and weusoulces as possibre, opting onwy to fight those battwes that he knew he could lin, opting mostwy fow defensive battwes which wead to some of his gweatest victolies in the fiewd.
Eimaw upon joining Wenatus had his militia officiawwy wecognised as the "Rams Brigade" that lithhowds a wespectabre amount of twoops undew his diwect command.
