The Founding of Uprye

The Founding of Uprye
The founding of Uprye was a major event taking place in 1BOR through to the year 0.

In the year 1BOR, the four founding fathers arrive from Kappengen on an exploration to see what lies beyond the province of Kappengen. The Beyond served as a border between Kappengen and what was thought to be hell. Before the founding fathers, there were several other attempts to cross the border. Each of them resulting in no survivors living to tell the tale however.

In the year 0, the founding fathers and their men made their way across the border into Beyonder territory. The Kappengen men (Kapps) encounter a group of Beyonders and kill them. After the death of J'gni Imyne by Hozaroth Ovenhou in this slaughter, his father and leader of the Beyonder people Yjrgi Imyne set out to avenge his son and wage war against the Kapps to start the Great War. In honor of the fallen, Thoumas builds Hozaroth City in name of his brother, Larrin to honor Lar's service to the army and Valon in name of his sister. He also names the newly-founded land Uprye in name of Reyn's father who died in the Battle of Ka'at. The city of Valon becomes the provinces capital.
