Editing Rustängmarder (section)

== History ==
A [Soldier] of the Rustängmarder was present when Flos despaired over [[Queravia]]'s death and began his slumber.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2018/01/13/4-02-k/ Chapter 4.02 K]</ref>

They were first mentioned by [[Orthenon]] when he listed them as one of the groups that were lost to Flos "for now".<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2017/05/05/2-00-k/ Chapter 2.22 K]</ref>

The Rustängmarder were contracted to fight for another master (located to the East of Reim) when Flos woke up. When Flos regained his strength and held himself against the hostility of entire Chandrar, the Rustängmarder eventually decided to send him help. For that reason, Commander [[Ytol]] deserted from their current employer early, leading 200 Rustängmarder [Soldiers] to the Kingdom of [[Reim]], also escorting the [[Nomads of the Sky]] to Flos. 80 Rustängmarder accompanied Flos to Belchan. The rest of all the Rustängmarder might were going to join Flos once their current contract expired.<ref name="7.10K">[https://wanderinginn.com/2020/02/26/7-10-k/ Chapter 7.10 K]</ref>

Ytol's company of the Rustängmarder rejoined Flos' kingdom at the start of the first summer after Flos woke up.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2020/01/01/6-68/ Chapter 6.68]</ref> Their first major fight after rejoining Flos was against [[Manticores]] in [[Belchan]]<ref name="7.08k" /> Next, they participated in Flos' campaign against Belchan itself, seeing action in the battle of Viadem's pass.<ref name="7.13K" />

Most of the Rustängmarder where under contract with the [[Forgotten Wing Company]]. One force of was with [[Niers Astoragon|Niers]] when he assaulted the [[Minds]]' Gathering Citadel.

Once the contract with Niers expired, the rest of the Rustängmarder left Baleros to rejoin Reim. Fighting at see caused half a legion of casualties, but they disembarked in the northeast skirting the Empire of Sands and made it to Reim.<ref name=":2">{{VERef|10.12 H (Pt. 2)}}</ref>
