The Defenestration of Redemon

In 2101 after the assassination of Dirin's King Jenric III, Hedonic I (then known as Haedoln) made a swift and brutal political move that later came to be known as the Defenestration of Redemon, and amounted to little more than bullying and a purge.

King Jenric's assassination was believed to be ordered by officials in the Kingdom of Rodan, whose capital was stationed at Redemon. Hedonic's move was to appeal to the lower classes and political opportunists ready to support him, by making large and disastrous threats. Many loyal Rodanian officials were then thrown out the windows of the palace and their estates. Soon after his coronation as King of Dirin, Haedoln I took Redemon and the core of Rodanian power. By 2102 he had ended the Amalgamation Struggle and unified the Midland Kingdom of Naidir.
