In the years following Jephdaphro's disappearance, power consolidated around Lord Mayor Ulysses. The 901st year of Jephdaphro's reign saw great change in Stone Bay. The kingdom opened its ports to the rest of [[Olvunter]]. As a result, immigration to Kara skyrocketed, with over a thousand people coming and going to the islands. Hundreds of wanderers settled in Kara, adopting Baymen traditions or synthesising them with their foreign cultures. The Kingdom of Stone Bay became a melting pot of cultures, resulting in the formation of institutions like the [[Church of the Deep]] and the [[Stendahl|Duchy of Stendahl]]. | In the years following Jephdaphro's disappearance, power consolidated around Lord Mayor Ulysses.

This year also saw [[Arimaex]] | This year also saw [[Arimaex Glisk|Arimaex's]] betrayal of Stone Bay. The former Court Mage revealed himself as a lich, and was consorting with the dark dragon [[Valynclex]] for power and control. Conflict erupted between Arimaex and Kara as a whole. The [[Battle of the Eternum Glades]] concluded this conflict, resulting in seventeen dead Karans, the neutralisation of Valynclex, and the death of Arimaex. | ||
Arimaex's defeat did not spell the end of conflict during the regency era. [[Dragone Collins]], a [[Nieseatian]] diplomat, was assassinated on Karan soil. This brought the ire of [[Macadier Maldore]], archmage and Archon of Nieseat, who levied threats and intimidations towards Stone Bay. Mountbatten defused the political tension by signing a non-aggression pact with Archon Macadier. For ten years, there was peace in Stone Bay. | Arimaex's defeat did not spell the end of conflict during the regency era.

Peace was broken in the year 911. During the [[January 7th Parliament]], Macadier Maldore interrupted the session by teleporting Ulysses Mountbatten, Lord Marshal [[Arthur Justice]], and Lord Chancellor [[Blue Mountbatten]] to the [[Ahdredan]]. Leaderless, Stone Bay was [[Occupation of Stone Bay|occupied]] by the Nieseatian leadership. | Peace was broken in the year 911.

Nieseat's occupation of Stone Bay lasted for one month. During this time, Macadier Maldore labelled it the "Colony of Orlan", and installed the then-Nieseatian loyalist Elmes Fin as its governor. Without its key leaders, what was left of Stone Bay's government was folded into Nieseat's three powers: the [[Ordenza]], the [[Halcyon Guild]], and the [[Old Blood]]. Only the Church of the Deep, led by Synarch [[Fafnir Deepcreek]], provided hidden sanctuary to Baymen loyalists. | Nieseat's occupation of Stone Bay lasted for one month.

King Ulysses' reign began in relative peace. His first act as king was to deliver various artifacts, stolen from the [[Fellrook]], to the [[Behli Lothren]] for safekeeping away from Kara. The aforementioned peace would not last long. During a session of [[Parliament of Orlan|Parliament]], the goddess [[Moder Jord]] appeared before the room. She made deliberate threats against Stendahl, specifically [[Bill Blackrock]], before leaving. Stone Bay initially remained neutral in the conflict between Stendahl and Moder Jord, but entered the fight after the goddess' forces attacked Orlan. Stone Bay would provide military assistance to Stendahl during and after the [[Fall of Dhara]], and its [[Navy]] was key to winning the subsequent [[Battle for Dhara]] at the end of [[Moder Jord's Invasion]]. | King Ulysses' reign began in relative peace.

They bombed several places, including Stone Bay. With assistance from Stendahl, [[Ibrithil]], [[Meloria]], and other Karan sovereignties, the CLF was destroyed on a mission spearheaded by the Stone Bay Navy. | ||
The [[Fey Incursion]] heavily impacted the Kingdom of Stone Bay. Various archfey, under the influence and coercion of [[ Granny Hildegard]], attempted to take root in Kara. [[Captain Dalos]], archfey of the Spring Court, levelled a courthouse in Stone Bay during his [[war games]]. The [[Fantastical Surveyor]] created the [[Mayhill]] underneath [[Steward's Cross]]. Lastly, and most importantly, the [[Lord of Rot]] created the [[Wolcott]] with [[Osten Credence]]'s help just southeast of Stone Bay. After Hiildegard was defeated in her games, any interference from the Feywild in Stone Bay's endeavours was soundly halted. | The [[Fey Incursion]] heavily impacted the Kingdom of Stone Bay.
