Archive - Kingdom of Alaftharia

The Kingdome of Alaftharia was a kingdom between the Kingdom of Asgarnia and the Kingdom of Kandarin.

Lordship
Alaftharia was officially founded in Year 3 of the 5th Age when Lord Philip I joined King Raddallin I's Kingdom of Asgarnia. For several decades, Alaftharia remained peaceful. In Year 52, Lord Owen I died while fighting in the Runecrafting Crusades. In Year 90, Lord Philip II died while pushing goblin tribes back out of Asgarnia. When Lord Chester II died during the Battle of Lumbridge, his son, Philip III, became Lord.

Kingdom Under Philip III
Within several years of his coronation, Lord Philip III declared independence from Asgarnia and created the Kingdom of Alaftharia in Year 8 of the 6th Age.

War of Justice
In Year 9, the Kingdom's loyalty to Armadyl was tested when Armadyl returned to Gielinor to fight the god Bandos. Philip III led Alaftharia's forces into battle for Armadyl, assisting Armadyl in his victory over Bandos.

War of Expansion
In Year 21, Philip III led a swift campaign to expand Alaftharia's borders. Riding through Taverly, Philip led his men towards Myrkr, an eastern lordship of the Kingdom of Asgarnia. Myrkr had long been essentially abandoned by Asgarnia, and it was quickly conquered by Alaftharia. Philip's men proceeded unhindered through Gildi, the lordship south of Myrkr until they arrived at the Tower of Justice.

Gildi would soon be returned to Asgarnia, but Myrkr and the Tower of Justice itself would remain in Alaftharian hands.

Asgarnian Coup
Between Years 23 and 25, Philip III would assist Raddallin III to reclaim the throne of Asgarnia through the Asgarnia-Alaftharia Treaty of Year 23 of the 6th Age

Kingdom Under Owen III
In Year 30, King Philip III would abdicate the throne to his son, Owen III.

Attack on Falador
In Year 31, King Owen III would help Asgarnia repel a Kinshra attack on Falador, resulting in the death of the Lord of the Kinshra, Henry Howe, and the incorporation of the Kinshra into the Kingdom of Asgarnia under Lord William Clinton.
