Originally a relatively peaceful mercantile trade island, ruled quietly by Baron Janosk Obur. However, when the mother of the ruler died of a wasting illness, the confederation Obur ruled fell apart, with the northern city-states of Deneri and Kapen pulling out of it. This was their right by the confederations agreements, but then they laid claim to the gold-rich city-state of Tygelt. Forced into conflict, the island was pushed into a bloody civil war. This ended when Peto Casse - baron of a neigbouring city-state Sundell, helped southern Kislova overcome the rebels.[2]

What became of Sundell is debated among historians as accounts vary: some say that the sea swallowed up the city-state in a tsunami, some that it was lost in the earthquake of the Grand Conjunction, others still claim a great seabeast assailed the town and left it a submerged ruin. Regardless, all uncontested record of it begins and ends with it being the origin of now-Baron Peto Casse.[3]
