Description War in the North Comic that I have been doodling in college. I'll probably get around to coloring some.

Basically the scenario is this: During a peaceful negotiation with the Neighboring country of Skandvir, the Nordskvarian King and his family were murdered on the way back to their country. The surviving royal family that remained at the capital was butchered by one of the ruling families in an attempt to seize power and the throne for himself.

The Usurper: Volund Haakonson tried to seize the Royal castle and crown himself, but he was stopped by the Skalindar family. Since then, the 2 families have been getting aid from the other ruling families and countries, and a civil war began. The Rebels (Haakonson), being backed by the Skandish military, while the Loyalists (The Skalindars and the remains of the Royal Army) being backed by Durnam, and Eucadia.

The comic takes place early on, where one of the first great battles will take place.

There's a long background to the fantasy universe created:

After the Black War ended, the country of Eucadia (what was left of it [After the Black wars had stripped the land of nearly all of its magic, the very aura and essence that kept the Eucadian government, military, AND country running, eventually led to the Eucadians not knowing how to function properly thus their military weakened and unable to hold onto land or fight, plus its military had been drastically reduced after the Black Legions had nearly crushed them all. This Caused the Eucadian Empire to be drastically reduced in size, leading other countries to splinter off and be created]) developed a new calendar to mark the beginning of a new era.

From 1 - 350  Eucadia fell into a state of collapse, leading Eastonia, which hadn't ever adapted to magic and gotten used to life without the need for magic to become the new leading world power, renaming themselves the Eastonian Caliphate.

1456 Nordic Civil war begins.
