Suffice it to say, a shot was fired, and the mightiest pirate armadas in the realm came to fight one of the bloodiest naval battles in Eorzean history. All told, seven galleys were sunk that day, and dozens of smaller warships."
-55,"TEXT_JOBDEFMNK_00093_ERIK_000_038","Four of the seven galleys went down in mere moments. When at last the smoke cleared and the cannons fell silent, hundreds lay dead on the ocean's bottom."

-57,"TEXT_JOBDEFMNK_00093_ERIK_100_039","So, as you can see, geography and history are inextricably linked. Regrettably, the region has recently been purchased by a wealthy Ul'dahn merchant named Gegeruju. He has chosen to turn a blind eye to the land's history, and has taken to calling it Costa del Sol."
-58,"TEXT_JOBDEFMNK_00093_ERIK_101_039","And I believe I will stop there concerning Bloodshore, and allow your feeble brain to process all it has heard."

-60,"TEXT_JOBDEFMNK_00093_ERIK_000_041","They are found on the west shore of the Velodyna River, at the foot of a now-extinct volcano overlooking the Rothlyt Sound. The area is a sedimentary basin formed by the deposit of the fine silts and sands carried by the river."
-61,"TEXT_JOBDEFMNK_00093_ERIK_000_042","Today, it falls within Gridanian territory, but in days past it belonged to my own home nation, Ala Mhigo."
-62,"TEXT_JOBDEFMNK_00093_ERIK_000_043","A century ago, King Manfred came to power in Ala Mhigo and decided to expand the nation's territory in order to promote economic growth. "
-63,"TEXT_JOBDEFMNK_00093_ERIK_000_044","To that end, he ordered the Ala Mhigan army to undertake large-scale campaigns that would eventually lead to the onset of the Autumn War."
-64,"TEXT_JOBDEFMNK_00093_ERIK_000_045","Naturally, such action was met with vehement opposition from the other nations. Gridania, fearing encroachment along its border with Ala Mhigo, placed the renowned lancer Vainchelon in command of its standing armies and war began."
-65,"TEXT_JOBDEFMNK_00093_ERIK_000_046","His opponent was Gylbarde, the great general of Ala Mhigo, a fervent believer in the Fist of Rhalgr, and a man who enjoyed enormous popularity among the Ala Mhigan people. "
-66,"TEXT_JOBDEFMNK_00093_ERIK_000_047","The two leaders were loved by their troops, and, at the outbreak of war, morale on both sides was very high. The armies clashed time and again all along the border, neither general yielding an ilm. But in a galling twist of fate for Gridania, Vainchelon suddenly took deathly ill."
-67,"TEXT_JOBDEFMNK_00093_ERIK_000_048","After no victor emerged following the Battle of Finesand Banks, Vainchelon devised a new strategy. "
-68,"TEXT_JOBDEFMNK_00093_ERIK_000_049","He ordered his forces to retreat to Camp Nine Ivies, fully intending for Gylbarde to give chase. This would lure the Ala Mhigans to terrain more favorable and familiar to the Gridanians."
-69,"TEXT_JOBDEFMNK_00093_ERIK_000_050","He died, however, before he was able to see his plan executed. Now, the man who would replace him, Osbern, was extremely ambitious and eager to prove his worth to the Seedseers. Having neither the mind nor patience for Vainchelon's defensive war, however, he ordered a frontal assault on the Ala Mhigan position. When Gylbarde learned of this plan─if plan it may be called─he secretly deployed troops to the most vital points along the Finesand Banks."
-70,"TEXT_JOBDEFMNK_00093_ERIK_000_051","The Gridanian forces had scarcely entered the area before they began to suffer heavy losses from highly coordinated Ala Mhigan ambushes. "
-71,"TEXT_JOBDEFMNK_00093_ERIK_000_052","In response, Osbern ordered a forced march, permitting his troops no rest for several days as he attempted to surge through the region. Eventually, exhausted, the Gridanians came to entrench themselves on a hill."
-72,"TEXT_JOBDEFMNK_00093_ERIK_000_053","But this is <Emphasis>precisely</Emphasis> what Gylbarde had wanted! He surrounded the hill with six thousand soldiers to deny the forestborn any hope of retrieving water, and then proceeded to rain down barrage after barrage of arrows upon the encampment. "
-73,"TEXT_JOBDEFMNK_00093_ERIK_000_054","In this seemingly hopeless position, the morale of the Gridanians quickly dwindled. Following two failed attempts to break free, Osbern himself led the van in a third and final charge."
-74,"TEXT_JOBDEFMNK_00093_ERIK_000_055","In the end, Gridania was defeated. Osbern and several of his officers were captured, and the legendary staff Claustrum, lent him by one of the Seedseers, was taken."
-75,"TEXT_JOBDEFMNK_00093_ERIK_000_056","This abject defeat accounted for what little morale remained among his surviving troops, and they beat a desperate retreat to Five Hangs with the relentless Ala Mhigans harrying them every step of the way."
-76,"TEXT_JOBDEFMNK_00093_ERIK_000_057","Gylbarde's victory brought him ever greater accolades from his country, and as a result both he and the Fist of Rhalgr came to wield considerable political power."
-77,"TEXT_JOBDEFMNK_00093_ERIK_000_058","And <Emphasis>that</Emphasis> is a brief history of the Finesand Banks. No, no, you needn't thank me. Knowing there is a little less ignorance in the world is all the reward I require."
-78,"TEXT_JOBDEFMNK_00093_ERIK_000_060","East End is just that─the eastern end of the Black Shroud."
-79,"TEXT_JOBDEFMNK_00093_ERIK_000_061","The Autumn War marked the beginning of hostilities between Ala Mhigo and Gridania. The first major victory in that war came at the First Battle of Tinolqa, and it belonged to Ala Mhigo."
-80,"TEXT_JOBDEFMNK_00093_ERIK_000_062","Defeated, the Gridanians retreated to the safety of Five Hangs. The front was splintered, and afterwards they would resort to opportunistic ambushes, and the constant redeployment of troops to continue their resistance."
-81,"TEXT_JOBDEFMNK_00093_ERIK_000_063","The Ala Mhigans, confident of ultimate victory, enjoined Gridania to surrender. As conditions, they demanded that all of the East and portions of the Central Shroud be relinquished, and perhaps more disturbingly, that the Seedseers be taken as wards of Ala Mhigo, where they would be met with no harm. "
-82,"TEXT_JOBDEFMNK_00093_ERIK_000_064","Needless to say, Gridania refused."
-83,"TEXT_JOBDEFMNK_00093_ERIK_000_065","Providence was to be delivered to the forestborn by the neighboring nation of Ishgard. Wary of Ala Mhigo's ambitions for the region, the See appealed to Limsa Lominsa and Ul'dah for aid. The three joined Gridania in her declaration of war against Ala Mhigo, and sent troops to reinforce the front."
-84,"TEXT_JOBDEFMNK_00093_ERIK_000_066","But this was far from a gesture of charity. It is easy to see what the motives of the See were. "
-85,"TEXT_JOBDEFMNK_00093_ERIK_000_067","Should certain sections of the Black Shroud be annexed to Ala Mhigo, Ishgard's southern and eastern borders would become extremely vulnerable to a possible invasion."
-86,"TEXT_JOBDEFMNK_00093_ERIK_000_068","For their part, Limsa Lominsa and Ul'dah had virtually nothing to lose by entering into the war, and yet everything to gain by curbing the power of Ala Mhigo in the realm. Even more, victory would place Gridania in their debt."
-87,"TEXT_JOBDEFMNK_00093_ERIK_000_069","And so it came to pass that these four great nations joined into a grand alliance to combat the advance of Ala Mhigo. The fighting which was to follow would later be named the Second Battle of Tinolqa."
-88,"TEXT_JOBDEFMNK_00093_ERIK_000_070","The heaviest and most devastating combat took place on a tract of land called East End. In the beginning, there were several small-scale skirmishes, but the allied powers succeeded in foiling the stratagems of Ala Mhigo at every turn."
-89,"TEXT_JOBDEFMNK_00093_ERIK_000_071","Feeling the tide begin to turn against them, Ala Mhigo dispatched its pikemen─known far and wide for their effectiveness against mounted units, such as the knights of Ishgard."
-90,"TEXT_JOBDEFMNK_00093_ERIK_000_072","To rally the troops even more, King Manfred himself took to the field to lead them."
-91,"TEXT_JOBDEFMNK_00093_ERIK_000_073","At first, it seemed as though Ala Mhigo had succeeded in reversing its fortune, as the allies began a slow retreat towards East End. "
-92,"TEXT_JOBDEFMNK_00093_ERIK_000_074","This was a clever ploy, however, designed to lure the pikemen into the dense growth of the forest, where their long polearms would be unwieldy and near useless."
-93,"TEXT_JOBDEFMNK_00093_ERIK_000_075","It was during these days that the archers of Gridania would prove their value beyond the bow, singing songs of heroism and glory in the field to bolster the allied troops."
-94,"TEXT_JOBDEFMNK_00093_ERIK_000_076","It is said that this gave birth to the bard tradition."
-95,"TEXT_JOBDEFMNK_00093_ERIK_000_077","The archers of Gridania excelled at combat in the dense vegetation of the Black Shroud, and their arrows inflicted heavy casualties on the Ala Mhigans."
-96,"TEXT_JOBDEFMNK_00093_ERIK_000_078","In the end, General Gylbarde was slain, King Manfred severely wounded, and Ala Mhigo completely and utterly defeated."

This was no doubt a result of their main temple being located in Gyr Abania─a region plagued by warfare where knowing how to protect oneself is essential."
-105,"TEXT_JOBDEFMNK_00093_ERIK_000_097","As the years passed, however, what began as a simple group of religious fanatics fighting to protect themselves grew into an ambitious organization of religious fanatics taking part in the region's power struggles."
-106,"TEXT_JOBDEFMNK_00093_ERIK_000_098","Those in power in Ala Mhigo grew wary of these war priests who proclaimed all their fights to be fought in the name of a god, and who employed deadly force without the slightest hesitation. And so, rather than make enemies of the monks, they decided instead to use them to their benefit."
