Role in the 2nd Ryzan Crisis
On January 10th, 2021, Emperor Thinker of Volkore suddenly disappeared. His body was never retrieved, though it is speculated that he either died at sea or was defeated by a dragon. This led to his main advisor Athos becoming the new Emperor. He pressured the Head Representative of Ryzan to make this statement:
 * 1) After weeks of ignoring Official Ryzani Borders, King Nebsk of Nebskoslavia officially has 2 days to add a key to his map showing the true Jurisdictional border between Volkore and Nebskoslavia/Nebskoslavia, or will face becoming a Dependency of Volkore under the Volkore Kingdoms Act.

As soon as King Nebsk read the message, he declared independence from Ryzan. With the clear denial of the demands, Emperor Athos threatened annexation of Nebskoslavia. Athos and Nebsk came to an agreement to settle it in a duel. They decided that if Nebsk wins then Nebskoslavia would remain in its current location and gain a small amount of land, and if Athos wins then Nebskoslavia would be completely occupied until an official treaty would be drawn up. Many came to spectate the anticlimactic battle, as Athos had slaughtered Nebsk with just two bow shots.
