“Noah Rebelled Against Shule, the King”

Brant Gardner

The power struggle continues, solidifying into different factions. Shule rules Moron and Nehor at the beginning of this episode. Noah mobilizes the family’s power base, but does so by rebelling against his father, Corihor, thus confirming that Corihor has been firmly under Shule’s control.

Noah’s faction conquers Shule and seizes Moron, the ancestral homeland. Again, the king is captured, strengthening the hypothesis that Corihor had been a similar political captive.
