14 Agartu Say adopted the name and title of Sheng Seleris and established the Great
Khanate. He swept away his enemies to east, south, and west, and showed us how
great we can be when we unite as the peoples of Pent. We fought many, and looted
many. He led his trusted horde to the Red Moon itself, and took the riches there.

14 Agartu Say adopted the name and title of Sheng Seleris and established the Great
Khanate. He swept away his enemies to east, south, and west, and showed us how
great we can be when we unite as the peoples of Pent. We fought many, and looted
many. He led his trusted horde to the Red Moon itself, and took the riches there.
In the end, however, he fell to the clutches of Yara, since she punishes greatest as
least. Which of the many exploits of those years do you best remember?
