The War of the Leaves (2000-2004 CE), also known as the First Blood War, was a conflict fought between the Hakulic government of Seclya and the current government of Seclya, the Saahein Sovereignty. Fighting began in early 2000 following centuries of oppressive rule over the Saahein and Lashein Elven populations of Seclya and their near-complete slavery experienced under the iron fist of Hakul.

The war itself was initially one of uprising against what was at the time, deemed the lawful government of the country by most nations abroad. The stalwart leadership of Ruven Rothilion throughout the initial course of the uprising culminated in his convincing Amador to intervene on the behalf of the uprising by offering at first, financial and material aid, followed by a declaration of war by the Amadorians and the full-borne invasion of Seclya through their shared borders.

The war concluded in late 2004 following several key military victories, including the Battle of Haanathemar and the Battle at Enas Shaereth off the coast of Amador. The ousting of the Hakulic government resulted in the reformation of Seclya into a monarchial system, installing Ruven Rothilion as Ostrax of Seclya, while Issarel Ermys, an Amadorian noble, as Miax of Seclya, creating the House of Rothilion-Ermys.

The aftermath of the war saw Amador and Seclya establish formal relations through the Ilymmelle Accords, a series of negotiations held in Ilymmelle aimed at detailing out a plan to reconstruct and defend the newly formed government and its populace from future attacks. As a result, both nations have become particularly intertwined politically, culturally, and economically.

The Hakulic remnants were forced to abandon their ancestral homelands, ultimately settling in Scailand in the Badlands Frontier, a frozen land with little in the way of luxuries. Seclyai-Amadorian-led have continuously monitored the remnants in the decades following the end of the war, ever vigilant of their encroaching threat.
