Lost Lore 
In 1151, a group of citizens in the Contested Lands claimed to be descendants of the Phynaxian Empire, and demanded their independence, by force if necessary. Catherine Gryphonheart, who at the time was serving in Erathia's army, was forced to take her troops and put down the rebellion. After the rebellion, it came to light that the whole rebellion was a setup by Erathian General Connel Traxton in an attempt to stop Catherine's swift rise through the ranks of the military.
