Siege of Don Holden (4691)

The Siege of Don Holden in 4691 was a turning point in the [x-th war]] of the Great Wars, and marked the beginning of the Cedarinian occupation of Aidis. The ten-month siege resulted in the Cedarinian capture of Aidis' capital, which it would hold for more than three decades. The battle also resulted the death of the reigning Emperor Daius XIII Pareigus as well as much of the Aidisese royal family, as well as a considerable amount of its military and administrative leadership. After the capture of Don Holden, Aidisese forces retreated to Vasos under Head Senator Drazenos Leior and the de facto new Emperor, Palus V Pareigus.
