In 1824, a Suellk and Arachnidion planetary invasion force commenced attacks on remote settlements across the world Bal-Kriav. Shortly after these incursions, Deep Six spies uncovered how these longstanding adversaries were navigating between Asteraoth and Quara'tun. The Suellk had secured control of the Hollow of Sargos, an immense device containing a rift bridging two distant regions of the Void.

As a consequence of the threat presented by the Drachdekai Pact, commercial activity and the construction of voidships markedly escalated between the Giff League, Deep Six, and allied nations throughout Bal-Kriav.

In 1826, at the Siege of Khaleddagun, the dwarven forces of Fargimdal were defeated. Khaleddagun was captured and renamed Brachypelma by its new neogi owners. Later that same year, a group of slaves calling themselves Pickaxes & Loinclothes escaped a nearby deep rock mine. The search for these runaways brought the Bru'khar garrison at Gamazûd into conflict with Neogi slavers serving the Drachdekai Pact. Hostilities between the two began immediately, with each seeking to dominate and enslave the other. This clash became known as the Gamazûd War.

In 1827, the Drachdekai Pact commenced its assault on the city-states of Orachan. Pact member Ba'lith deployed its naval forces to blockade any relief efforts from Ivory Asylum. The city-state of Isumbras was the first to succumb, abandoned to slaughter and plunder, ceasing to be a haven for halflings and elderaunts. Ba'lith then seized control of the city's extensive tobacco plantations and stationed its troops within.
