The Fall of Iam

In the year 84, Iam was overthrown by a revolutionary force led by a Rhythnorian farmer-turned-brigand named Titus. Titus's resistance was aided by the reappearance of three powerful magical artifacts: the Eye of Dor, a legendary stone claimed to focus the inherent Wisdomic power of the natural world; the double-headed axe Eryndor, an ancient artifact associated with the fundamental chaos out of which both Wisdom and the Demiurge sprung; and the Sword of Tympanor, which Titus had found deep in a Rhythnorian mine. With the aid of these items, and with the help of Picantaean and Andar tribesmen from the Twilight, the resistance liberated Picardia and destroyed Iam's power bases at Quintillica and Pandrell in 83, and in 84, defeated Iam at his retreat on the Plains of Dor, near Evasendia. The Pact of Ventria was broken by the magic of the Eye of Dor later that year.
