Darken Rahl

Darken Rahl Movement After years of plotting and scheming Rahl found a way to weaken the boundaries and build a vast army able to overtake the Midlands. Using harsh tactics and manipulation, Rahl even brought some of the flags of the Midlands under his banner. Invading the Midlands Upon invading the Midlands Rahl began seeking out and killing Confessors and Wizards. Rahl even sent garrisons of his own men into loyalist towns to slaughter the townspeople, saying it was the resistance to smear their name and increase sympathy for his cause. Calling himself "Father Rahl", he began brainwashing people into thinking he was the savior of the world. Outlawing fire Darken Rahl outlawed fire, which he viewed as evil, as it was fire (conjured by Zeddicus Zu'ul Zorander) that killed his father and severely wounded him. Without fire, the people of the Midlands were plunged into a world of darkness and cold. With the numbers of wizards and confessors dwindling, hope seemed lost for the Midlands and it seemed like Darken Rahl would conquer the three territories. The Mord-Sith's pet The House of Rahl has since the beginning using a group of women trained from a young age to serve the House of Rahl in every way. Called Mord-Sith, their weapon is the Agiel which causes unimaginable pain to whoever touches it, able to turn even the House of Rahl's most hardened enemies into mindless slaves. They also have the power to control another person's magic and use it against them, causing pain ten times worse than what the magic itself would have done.
