Editing Flos Reimarch (section)

===Crumbling of the Campaign===
Most people assumed that Flos had overextended his reach by tackling Baleros and Izril at the same time. However, [[Niers Astoragon]] later theorized that Flos had a rather clever plan to quickly achieve his victory: He planned on rallying several uprising minorities on each continent (by promising power and land to the [[Gnolls]] of Izril, and the same to the [[Half-Gazers]] and [[Selphids]] of Baleros). Also, Flos assumedly didn't intend to have to defend Chandrar from extra-continental attacks, so he needed to occupy his enemies at their home continents. Niers assumed that Flos might have reached out to the Humans as well, especially those of Izril.<ref name="I-TQ" />

Flos sent [[Queravia]] with his armies to Baleros and [[Amerys]] with his armies to [[Izril]]. The start of both campaigns was promising: Queravia landed in the port city of Zaland and conquered it in a day, then defeated an army of the [[Four Great Companies]]. Meanwhile, Amerys landed on the southern shores of Izril<ref name="4.25N">[https://wanderinginn.com/2018/04/03/4-25-n/ Chapter 4.25 N]</ref> and locked down [[Zeres]] all by herself in a stalemate.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2019/05/14/6-16/ Chapter 6.16]</ref><ref name="I-TQ">[https://wanderinginn.com/2019/11/09/interlude-the-titans-question/ Interlude - The Titan's Question]</ref>

Several factors brought his downfall however:
*The fleet of [[Isles of Minos|Minos]] didn't ally with him, but instead attacked one of his invasion fleets, cutting off his beachheads on the other continents from reinforcements.<ref name="I-TQ" /> They also killed [[Tottenval]], whose death and body was discovered by the rest of the Seven only after Flos already had given up.<ref name="4.02K" />
*[[Rhir]] sent an army against Flos, possibly convinced by [[Wistram Academy|Wistram]] that Flos might ally with the [[Demons]], and managed to defeat [[Takhatres]].<!--possibly on Chandrar?--><ref name="I-TQ" />
*Queravia was besieged by Niers Astoragon, who personally killed Queravia in order to break her army.<ref name="I-TQ" />
As Queravia was Flos' lover, her demise caused Flos to fall into depression, giving up on his war of conquest. He headed back to [[Reim]] where he "slumbered" for the next 22 years, using his [Dreamer] Skills to walk through his memories and thoughts,<ref>{{VERef|10.12 H (Pt. 1)}}</ref> while his empire and kingdom crumbled.<ref name="4.02K">[https://wanderinginn.com/2018/01/13/4-02-k/ Chapter 4.02 K]</ref>

The Izrilian armies returned to Chandrar and disbanded after having heard of Flos abandoning them.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2017/04/12/2-10/ Chapter 2.10]</ref> Many of Flos' subjects were angered and disappointed about this turn of events.<ref name="4.02K" />
