| Notes | ||
The Great What-We-Are-Becoming (Kai Aphmyarkaiph) was a Hyperborean holy war and in effect marked the commencement of the second Babkhano-Boreal conflict for control of the then Duchy of Elwynn.
The campaign was a decisive, albeit short-lived, victory for Raikoth which saw the political power of the Babkhi destroyed for a generation. The Babkhi community however endured and would go on to play a decisive part in the declaration of Elwynnese independence and the creation of the Coordinated State of Elwynn before going on to secure their place as the third largest ethnicity of the Twelve Peoples of Elwynn.
