Background
After the death of the Platinum Dragon Bahamut at the hand of Tiamat, many across the realm become disheartened and began to lose hope that the war against the dragons was winnable. At the same time, dragon attacks had made it so that resources had begun to dwindle. Seeing the opportunity, Tiamat began to sow confusion and disarray between the allied forces of Quelmar, having her agents infiltrate governments, cities, political parties, and even some private companies in order to exert her influence from the shadows.
Seeing the developments in new arcane technologies, Tiamat worried that mortals could soon create weapons that rivaled her dragons. During the Second Realm War, Tiamat focused much of her efforts towards Isonhound. The death of Feredemius and the rise of a new age of dragonslayers within the continent had dealt a major blow to her war effort, and the new developments of airships in Sneerwell and Gammelgard had made it easier for heroes and militaries alike to combat dragons.
