The armies of the Blue Dragon Descendant were completely buried under the imperial artillery fire, deep beneath the sands and rubble. The main forces of the Allied Forces rapidly conquered dozens of cities with lightning speed, occupying the vast expanse of the Talilo Desert and its surrounding territories, effectively taking control of the western Seleucid Region—previously dominated by the Blue Dragon Sect.
The Talilo Desert was known for its perennial droughts and harsh climate, with most of its population concentrated in the cities along the Yir River Valley. Seizing these major cities meant securing water, food, and other precious resources critical for controlling this expansive desert.
In ancient times, the desert kingdom flourished in the Yir River Valley, gradually occupying the entire Talilo Desert over a century. For thousands of years, dynasties fought over this fertile river valley until it was finally conquered by the rising Holy Fadlan.
