: For what my two cents, completely unsupported by fact,

: side was the exact opposite of the side we know,
: populated by good, peaceloving undead, but, every 1000

Hehehe. That would actually be a good idea for a scenario. If I had any mapmaking skillz, I'd make it.
: As my crazy theories and unfounded speculation go, that

: Someone else once said something to the effect of
: "The reason why Moagim lost was because he
: recruited the people of Faraway, who having reached
: Myth, said "What? You mean we have to kill these
: people? I thought we were here to give them flowers
: and read poetry to them! I'm going home!" "
