Line 50:
King Dodbane reached out to his ally, the Commonwealth of Blackthorn, who answered the call to arms soon after. The involvement of Blackthorians sparked interest in [[Kalikhan]], who still held relations with Blackthorn since the days they were both under the banner of the Triumvirate of Ceyreto. On Jule 16, 5 AC, Kalikhan also joined the war on the side of Guldhir.

==== Unrightful Rebellion ====
{{main|Unrightful Rebellion}}
Late on Jule 12, after Blackthorn had announced their participation in the war, a city district by the name of [[Fort Khirom]] declared themselves independent from Blackthorn and neutral in the conflict. Fort Khirom had long held a policy of pacifism, a standpoint that differed from the rest of the Commonwealth. This resulted in Khirom leadership opting out from the war and ultimately from the rest of the union.
 
Despite their claims of neutrality, however, Khirom forces were recounted to repeatedly raid [[Zethortal]], the Commonwealth's capital. This prompted a response, whereupon the Prince of the newly independent city was captured and persuaded to pledge allegiance to the Commonwealth for a full pardon. Fort Khirom reunited with the Commonwealth on Jule 14.
 
==== River blockade ====

As a part of their strategy to reduce the territorial control Thaambaile held, Guldhir constructed a river barrier that strategically cut off Thaambaile's connection to the ocean. Accordingly, the barrier was nicknamed as the Ocean Gate. The practicality of the Ocean Gate remains speculated, but Guldhir officials declared their blockade to be successful.
 
==== Small-scale skirmishes ====
In the months following the start of the war, most action took place between small crews. Both sides conducted offensive patrols that often lead to engaged combat, resulting in the first casualties of the war. Thaambaile coordinated multiple attacks on Guldhirian structures, such as ships and railroads, while Guldhir focused on reconnaissance missions. Guldhir later declared the actions carried out by Thaambailian troops to be war crimes, and harshened their original war demands.
 
=== Siege of Nev'karlik ===

The main Guldhirian offensive began on Jule 29, 5 AC, with the siege of [[Nev'karlik]], the mountain that held Thaambaile's main fortress.
