The Eldest BrotherNakar Mlerek is home to the palaces of Nanru Nakar, and thus is home to the true and legitimate heirs of the Mudaliar dynasty. Following the death of Pelozhil Mudaliar during the second Larankarha War, his eldest son Elatam rightfully succeeded him. He was a skilled and effective administrator, but he lacked military leadership skills and the looming threat of Larankar led many to consider replacing him.\n\nChief among these conspirators was his youngest brother, Darandar. Driven by jealousy and assisted by the noxious rumours spread by their middle brother, Erannan, Darandar seized control of much of the army and of Nakar Kilaiek. Thus, the War of the Three Brothers began and it would devastate Nanru Nakar. In the end, the war broke the city of Nanru Nakar into three pieces, just like the Mudaliar dynasty. However, we remain the true heirs of Elatam, and thus, the rightful rulers of Nanru Nakar.

Entichend ArmyEven divided Nanru Nakar is among the most populated regions of Taychend. We can easily tap into our great wealth of people to bolster our forces against our enemies, especially when drawing from the fertile plains of Entichend. This allows us to more easily sustain and replenish an army larger than our enemies consider feasible.

Strict Enforcement of the CastesThe castes of Nakar Mlerek help to maintain the stability of our society. From the lowest to the low to our ruler themselves, we must ensure every member of our society knows their place. Internal dissent and internecine violence shattered Nanru Nakar once, and we cannot afford it to happen again.

Experience from the Larankarha WarsThree times Larankar marched upon Nanru Nakar. The first drew to a bloody conclusion far away from our city’s walls. The second was beaten back, with the aid of Royakottar and Orenkoraim who rightfully understood that if Nanru Nakar fell, they were next. This was not without cost, however; King Pelozhil Mudaliar was slain driving the Larankarha from our walls, setting the stage for the War of Three Brothers. Then, when Larankar came for the third time, there was no united Nanru Nakar, but three squabbling and tired brothers.\n\nThe outcome was obvious, and the sting upon Nakar Mlerek was felt for generations. Nakar Mlerek would need more warriors to replenish the ranks of their armies, and be less strict on who may serve.

Robes for KingsNakar Mlerek is renowned for producing the finest fabrics in all of Taychend, worn proudly by the upper castes. While lesser fashion is available to those without means, the greatest and most talented artisans are those who give Nakar Mlerek its reputation as the home of Taychend’s greatest fabrics. Of course, such expertise must be well rewarded, often restricting Nakari fabrics to only wealthy and powerful individuals. When those of lower castes are able to afford such prestigious garments is usually a sign that the caste system needs… re-enforcement.

Memories of the Golden AgeThe palace where the true heirs of the Mudaliar dynasty rule was once the site from which the whole of Kalavend was ruled, not just Nanru Nakar. In conquest, relics, artifacts, and examples of artwork are often tributes and for Nanru Nakar it was no different. Much of the Kalavend’s history has ended up within Nakar Mlerek’s palaces, from Enlarmai to Cankamam. Of course, such a storied tradition did not end with the fall of Nanru Nakar, and we continue to take examples of our conquests and victories back to our halls.

Sack of the Three CitiesWhen the Jaherian Exemplars came from the Lai peninsula to wage war against Larankar, the realms of the Kalavend who had languished under Larankar rule sought their aid in rebellion. Happily the Exemplars complied, seeing it as a means to weaken their enemy. This came to an end with the sack of Urvand. The Larankarha had taken much from us, and we wished for many relics that belonged originally to Nanru Nakar to be returned.\n\nThe Exemplars agreed, if we would only abandon our gods and embrace the light of their supposed one true god, Surael, and his herald and their namesake, Jaher. Such blatant hostage taking of our history could be neither stomached nor ignored. We seized the relics of Nanru Nakar and began the march home, but the Exemplars were faster. When the Exemplars reached the three Nakars, they divided themselves into three forces: their leader Kortazel would march on Nakar Mlerek, while two subordinates by the name of Pisandal and Alvarion led the assault on Nakar Kilaiek and Nakar Kriadvai respectively.\n\nKortazel seized the palace and the Dhavana of Nakar Mlerek, who had been vital in organizing the rebellion against Larankar so that Kortazel could force him to let the elves rule Nanru Nakar. The Dhavana fled the city’s walls and he then assembled the armies of all of the three cities which just arrived from Urvand, leading a now united Nanru Nakar with sword drawn in chasing the scattered Sun Elves out of the city, quarter by quarter.
