Frontem

A God Learner Kingdom in Fronela. Details of its rule are unknown. It would have been established between 700 ST and 730 ST because in 729 ST, Syranthir a noted opponent of the God Learners had reached Oronin. The details of its establishment are not mentioned in the reigns of Haladin or Ullmal as described in Soalvan's Book. Instead the Fronelan invasion was led by Arim Adalla and his chief opponent was Narensaval. After Narensaval's death, the Adallas became the Lords of Frontem. The status of Frontem within the God Learner Empire is unclear and may have evolved throughout the Empire's history. In any extent by the time of the Closing it had become a Kingdom.

When the Closing struck, the Royal Fleet hunted down the Pirates of Ozur's Bay in the Desperate Sea War. During the reign of Celakos, Janerndal and the Perfecti caused problems which required the Seshnegi to send armies overland through Erontree. Allies were obtained from the Fronelan barbarians (Jonat?) and Frontem was re-established with appointed Governors. Supposedly Celakos had died then from a curse by Bishops of Loskalm.

Shortly afterwards, Shah Nadar leads a great raid against the Fronelan Malkioni - the sources say Loskalm but Frontem is probably meant. According to the Unity List this raid was after Sarenesh became Emperor so was probably between 946 ST and 955 ST when Nadar himself died. This raid went unnoticed in Seshnela.

During the reign of Benalos, the governors of Frontem were noted as being independent of the Seshnegi Emperor. But Frontem was finally overthrown by Tyrensaval and the Returners who ousted Baskal Aballa and restored the Kingdom of Loskalm.
