The struggling settlement of Seleucar was given purpose one dark night as Nikolas wandered into the jungle and found himself in the presence of [[Sarapis]]. The Logos granted him a vision of an unimaginable darkness which would descend upon the world, and charged him with saving Sapience from this impending [[Black Wave]]. Thus was Nikolas renamed [[Nicator]], Emperor of Seleucar, and given the golden [[Staff of Nicator|staff]] of Sarapis, before returning to his people and sharing with them their new direction. | The struggling settlement of Seleucar was given purpose one dark night as Nikolas wandered into the jungle and found himself in the presence of [[Sarapis]].

The Army of Seleucar grew quickly. The [[Mhun]] of [[Moghedu]], to whom Nicator had bequeathed the secret of [[amar moss]], pledged their entire race's loyalty to the Empire for two generations; the [[troll|trolls]] of the [[Mannaseh Swamp]] soon joined as well. From there the army marched to [[Shallam]], whose Emperor surrendered the city after only two hours, and then to [[Ashtan]], where after a mighty battle Seleucar once again triumphed. | The Army of Seleucar grew quickly.

This time of conquering and expansion is occasionally referred to as the [[White Wave]]. | ||
So soon after its founding, the Empire of Seleucar seemed to be in peril. Nicator grew old while his armies grew great, and when he died there was much mourning. In his lifetime many called him a madman, even as the Seleucarian Empire expanded and brought prosperity to the land. His leadership overcame the fears of those who doubted the Empire's calling, but after his passing the voices of dissent began to rise. Heir to the throne was [[Piraeus]], who pledged to continue his father's mission of preparations against the Black Wave, but so intangible was this threat that many could not see reason in preparing against a non-existent enemy. | So soon after its founding, the Empire of Seleucar seemed to be in peril.
