Theodorac proclaimed himself the divine ruler of Ala Mhigo sometime around 1552, stating that his right to the throne was the divine rule of Nymeia herself. It was at this time that he also banned the worship or likeness of any other god and executed any who defied his uncontested rule. The followers of the Fist revolted, but Theodorac used the uprising of the monks as a reason to imprison them, torture them, and finally kill them. The King of Ruin launched a religious crusade of extermination once he found that the monks sought to throw him from power.
Around this time, or shortly after, Theodorac led a vast army to the main temple site of the Fist of Rhalgr. The army surrounded the temple and massacred all those within. It was on this day that the monkhood was nearly completely lost, save for a few survivors who might have escaped.Â
From 1552 to 1557, Theodorac ruled without contest. The people of Ala Mhigo eventually got fed up with the daily public beheadings and the tyrannical rule of the king and revolted, storming the palace grounds.Â
At this time, the XIV Imperial Legion, led by Gaius Van Baelsar, marched upon the city. Many of the citizens of Ala Mhigo saw the Garlean force as liberators at first. Couple this with the fact that the city was thrown into chaos, leaderless, and desperate for a new rule, the annexation and occupation of the city was relatively easy and happened near over night.
Anyways, hope that helped!
Above post edited to reflect these events. The info you gave actually filled in a pretty large gap in the time line. Thanks tons for this, Mtoto!
