-Though the Order of the Automata ultimately emerged victorious, forcing the Salamandyrs to retreat back to [[Salamandyria]] and leave [[Automatia]] alone, the Ancient One was destroyed in a surprise attack at the very end of the War, before he could unveil a secret plan he claimed to have developed. In fact, the Ancient One, at that point, fully expected his side to lose, and had only made up the story of the secret plan to boost morale, though he ''had'' developed a plan which would allow him to return in the Order's hour of need years down the line if he should be killed, which indeed came to pass — though by the time he actually returned, the threat had already been dealt with by the Order thanks to the help of [[Marksmanship-522]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Peace and Quiet (short story)|Peace and Quiet]]'')
+== History ==
+The War was a product of the [[Imperial Salamandyr Army]]'s attempt to conquer [[Automatia]]. Despite the prior history between the Salamandyrs and the Order's [[The Ancient One|founder]], it was not a personal feud, but simply one facet of the [[Salamandyr Emperor]]'s will to conquer the entire [[The Multiverse|Multiverse]]. Though the Salamandyrs had [[Salamandyr War Fleet|a great fleet of Void Ships]] and many enslaved armies and stolen weapons, the Automata's technological prowess and ability to mass-produce more of themselves allowed them to keep up with their foes, and the War dragged on for years. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Salamandyrs and the Automata (short story)|The Salamandyrs and the Automata]]'')
+Eventually, [[the Ancient One]] was destroyed in a sneak attack by the Salamandyrs, ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Peace and Quiet (short story)|Peace and Quiet]]'', ''[[The Salamandyrs and the Automata (short story)|The Salamandyrs and the Automata]]'') before he could unveil a secret plan he claimed to have developed. In fact, the Ancient One, at that point, fully expected his side to lose, and had only made up the story of the secret plan to boost morale, though he ''had'' developed a plan which would allow him to return in the Order's hour of need years down the line if he should be killed, which indeed came to pass — though by the time he actually returned, the threat had already been dealt with by the Order thanks to the help of [[Marksmanship-522]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Peace and Quiet (short story)|Peace and Quiet]]'') At any rate, his apparent death led the other, grief-stricken Automata to rally with greater determination than ever before, and they managed to defeat the Salamandyrs and force them to retreat back to Salamandria.
