Giarr Fondaio

Giarro Fondaio was the king of the Grizo Kingdom from -58 SD to -22 SD. He was a more cruel king than his predecessors, wanting to turn Grizo into an empire, with him as the emperor. As a result, the citizens and a portion of the government had a disdain for him. In -26 SD, Grizo's parliment started a movement to remove him from the throne and have his son, Aaron Fondaio, replace him. Shortly after this movement started, people of the Befahrian Divide started raiding villages on the border of Grizo. He used this as his opportunity to not only stay in power, but also to move to his goal of gaining absolute power over the country, declaring war on the Befahrians, thus starting the Befahrian War. In the last year of the war, Valus Perdere questioned his motives, as the Befahrians had already been crushed. Giarr met Valus with harsh reprimand. Valus left Grizo's military, lowering morale, which caused the tide of the war to turn. Giarr lead one last push against the Befahrians, intending to crush them for good. It was in this battle that he died, and minutes later, the chain of command allowed Aaron Fondaio to take over. Aaron ended the battle offering a truce with the Befahrians. Soon after, a peace treaty was established and the Befahrian War ended. Giarr's legacy of transistioning Grizo to an empire was undone, and he went down as one of Grizo's most cruel kings.
