The Genesis War

"After the long "Age of Tower-Climbing, when Zahard and 10 Great Families conquered the Tower and Rankers began appearing, King Zahard declared himself "King of Everyone and Everything in the Tower" and started a war againt his opponents. For a long time after that the Tower was divided by a war between "those who supported Zahard becoming King" and "those who opposed it". History refers to this period as Age of Genesis. But it was more of a time of war and slaughter than a time of genesis."

The Genesis War, was a huge scale war and battle that took place across all Floors of the Tower that happened right after The Great War ended. This war sparked the beginning of the Age of Genesis. This war was led by Grace Mirchea Luslec who wished to continue what Arlen Grace and V wanted to achieve. During this war, Luslec formed an organization that is now widely known as "FUG". Despite their huge loses in the previous war, the allied forces still insist on opposing the coronation of Zahard to become the King of the Tower.

Several nations and countries that also opposed Zahard becoming King of the Tower then joined forces with FUG in their war against Zahard. The Genesis War lasted for quite a long time before Zahard employed a divide and conquer tactic by eliminating nations and countries supporting FUG one by one. Zahard did this by offering an "ultimatum" to all nations: either "coexistence" or "extermination". Given the vast difference in power between the individual nations and the Zahard Empire, many chose coexistence. However, in order to achieve coexistence, Zahard wanted the war heroes of the capitulated nations to be sealed as a spoil of war.

In their desperate attempt to slow down their defeat, top ranking members from FUG led by Khel Hellam initiated a master plan to assassinate Zahard in his sleep. He formed Team Khel Hellam and recruited the Hidden Grove for reinforcement and support. This happened mainly because Khel was over confident in his ability to see the future and believed Zahard could be defeated. However, Khel Hellam didn't know that King Zahard also has an ability to see the future surpassing his own. In the end, most members of Khel's team were either captured or killed. Zahard chose to not kill Khel Hellam and let him live in fear.

After Khel's plan to kill Zahard failed miserably, more and more nations accepted coexistence and the momentum of the war was mostly lost. This lead to the end of the Age of Genesis.
