In 128 A.I., more Andals began landing in the young kingdom of Godsgrace—namely House Todonar and House Pengroz. Their landing sparked a rebellion in the kingdom of the Bloodroyal where the Allyrions and Roxtons broke their oaths of fealty to House Yronwood and bent the knee to the Santagars of Godsgrace. Uthor Yronwood declared war on Godsgrace to reclaim the lands of the Tor, but was defeated by the combined might of the Andals after only two years of conflict. Captured by Lord Argos 'the Morningstar' Daelwell, Uthor Yronwood would meet his end by execution and would be remembered as the last of the Bloodroyals. Seizing the castle of Yronwood, King Symeon II Santagar granted it to Lord Lucas of Todonar. Seeing the vulnerability of Wyl, the Stormlands took the opportunity to invade the Boneway, led by Lord Harras 'the Gust' Dondarrion. Castle Wyl was taken and the Stormlands held control of the Boneway briefly before King Dagos 'the Redstar' Dayne and King Devin Fowler marched to liberate the Boneway from the Stormlands. | In 128 A.I., more Andals began landing in the young kingdom of Godsgrace—namely House Todonar and House Pengroz.

Near the middle point of the Second Century, the long-ruling King [[Tamsyn I Dryland]] of Brimstone perished with no clear heir. The [[Brimstoner Civil War]] resulted, a struggle between Tamsyn's grandson, similarly named [[Tamsyn II Dryland|Tamsyn]], and one of his distant cousins, Lucifer Dryland. The former, raised in the Qorgyle capital of Cliffsides in Andal religious, courtly and martial fashions, earned the support of his army (commanded formerly by his father, Prince Devlin Dryland), Qorgyles and the nascent Kingdom of [[Godsgrace]]. The latter, promising to drive the Andals from the west, allied himself to the King [[Arthur Dayne]], and gathered the eastern Clans under his banner. The result was a crushing defeat of Lucifer, and the establishment of Dorne's first half-Andal Kingdom. | Near the middle point of the Second Century, the long-ruling King [[Tamsyn I Dryland]] of Brimstone perished with no clear heir.
