Uryc'kha Alliance
The Urcy'kha Alliance formed in 637af, between Urycquan and the Khâif. Urycquan, undergoing a period of aggressive expansion, had just conquered the Faqavi. With eyes set to the east, the next nation to fall were the Khâif. However, Khâif had been embroiled in a land war with Hhalkna, after their own failed attempt to expand onto the north-eastern island of Zyraia. With pressure from both sides, Khâif proposed an alliance with Urycquan, whom they deemed stronger.
Naruâl, the leader of the Urycquan, was a visionary and his ultimate goal was to unite the people of Zyraia under one rule. He accepted Khâif's proposal, provided they defer to his military rule. It was upon this alliance that the foundations of the Zycaina Empire began to form.
With the new alliance, Hhalkna was unable to compete with Urcy'kha's superior numbers. After years of war between the two, Hhalkna eventually fractured, with the majority joining the Urcy'kha Alliance, to form the Zycaina Empire. There was a small population of Hhalkna who were resistant to the idea of joining an Empire. They migrated north, into the tundra, forming a small colony called Dvalla.
