Soon after the death of the greatest ruler, the first priest king "Immortal the Great" Setra, the mighty kingdom of Nehekhara fell apart, and the lords of the cities who were unwilling to live under the human world became independent and established themselves as kings, and the first dynasty of Nehekhara was overthrown, and the entire kingdom was once again plunged into frequent wars.

The next 400 years are known as the "Age of Kings", and in response to the old saying, dozens of kings ascended the throne one after another, and their bodies were mummified and buried in elaborate pyramids, and their armies lined up in a neat queue to bury the king.

After a brief Second Dynasty, about 2,000 years before the Empire, Nehekhara welcomed a new ruler, the founder of the Third Dynasty, the priestly king from the "City of Kings" Kemuri, Ketaip.

During the reign of King Cutep, the kings of all the cities submitted to him, and Nehekhara prospered like never before, but it was short-lived, and after his death, the second son succeeded to the throne, and a rivalry from within the royal family changed the course of history in Nekhkala and even in the Middle Ages.

After centuries of continuous development, Nehkhara's fascination with eternal life and the cult of death had reached a whole new level.

In this land, the status of Degaf, the "god of death and the underworld", is already comparable to that of Petra, the "god of the sun".

Skulls and skulls began to appear frequently as ornaments on various buildings, magnificent pyramids were erected, more and more warriors were buried deep underground, and the number of dead waiting to be resurrected even exceeded the entire population of Nehekhara at the time.

In the midst of this subtle influence, the "Funeral Rite Sect" also became more and more powerful, and they deliberately concealed their research results from the kings in order to obtain a steady stream of financial support.

At some point, a new tradition began to emerge, as proof of devout belief in the gods, that the eldest son of every king of Nehekhara would be forcibly sent to the "funeral sect" and become a priest, while the second son would inherit the throne and be crowned as the new king, but in the generation of King Cutep, problems arose, because his eldest son was not willing to be just a priest.

This prince was born with amazing talents, especially the innate comprehension and affinity for magic, with super talent and superior origin, he mastered the knowledge of the "Funeral Rite Sect" for hundreds of years about the wind of magic and the art of immortality in a short period of time, and became a high-ranking priest, but this alone could not satisfy his growing ambitions.

In his opinion, the throne of Nehekhara and Kemuri belonged to him, not to the stupid pig brother.

The gods seem to have sympathized with his plight, and when he was thirty-two years old, a dark elf ship was shipwrecked in Nehekara due to a storm, and the survivors were imprisoned in the temples of the Funeral Cult, including a dark elf sorceress, from whom the prince was able to learn the mysteries of dark magic.

Within a few years, he surpassed his "teacher" in dark magic, and destroyed them in a magical duel.

You must know that the elf's innate control of magic is by no means comparable to that of ordinary humans, which shows how outstanding his talent is.

What happened next was logical, as the prince first usurped the throne and became the new priestly king of Kemuri, buried his younger brother alive in his father's pyramid, and then began to maintain his rule with endless fear and powerful magic.

This new king is the most notorious villain boss in the history of medieval Warhammer, who has been defeated and defeated again and again in his life, and no matter how many times he is killed, he can make a comeback Warhammer inspirational brother, "Undead Scourge" Nagash.

In order to prolong his life, Nagash, who was addicted to power and pleasure, further strengthened his exploration of magic, and he ingeniously combined the various knowledge and rituals of death of the "Funeral Rite Sect" with dark magic, and created a new magic faction with his one-in-a-million talent, "Necromantic Magic".

At the same time, he also created an elixir that can keep him young forever and immortal, "Eternal Life Water", which can be said to have truly mastered the mystery of the art of eternal life.

He recorded all these studies on "necromancy" and the method of making potions in the nine parchments, which is the origin of the sacred text of necromancy, the artifact "Nagash Nine Scrolls".

The ambitious Nagash did not stop there, and immediately ordered the construction of the largest black pyramid ever built, surpassing even the Great Pyramid of Setra the Great.

Undoubtedly, this was a protracted and costly undertaking, and in order to complete this superstructure that could gather the winds of magic and improve his spells, he began to crusade and attack other surrounding city-states in order to gain vast wealth and slaves.

Exactly fifty years later, the pure black pyramid was finally built, and the remains of countless slaves who died during the construction were buried in the foundation, and the tower was engraved with all kinds of dark and intricate incantations, making it look extremely eerie and dark.

Relying on the pyramid's control of the winds of magic, Nagash dark magic and necromancy can be increased tenfold.

But it was precisely because of this building that his brutal conquests over the years had caused the other priest kings of Nehekhara to finally get tired of it, and they formed a massive coalition to try to overthrow the tyrant's rule.

Through the necromancy created single-handedly, Nagash summoned many undead creatures to help him in battle, and in each battle countless new skeletons rose from the ground to join the necromancer's army.

However, the alliance of the kings was aided by the "Funeral Sect", which had been standing by until now, but they soon found that things were out of their control, and Nagash's ambition and strength were undoubtedly revealed, and he was by no means an object of control, and if he defeated the kings, the next target would probably be the sect.

The chief high priest of the "Funeral Cult", the "Lord of the Lich", Katup, ordered countless structures controlled by the Lich Priest, various tomb scorpions, Ushapits, Sphinxes and even the Holy Titans to participate in the battle, and after countless fierce battles, finally helped the coalition army break through the gates of Kemuri and defeat the undead army of Nagash.

Under the desperate cover of his most loyal protégé, the vizier (Nehekhala for prime minister) "Black" Akhhan, the defeated king fled alone to the north of Nekhkara, where he built a fortress called the "Cursed Pit" on the cripple peak of the mountains on the edge of the world, and secretly plotted to make a comeback.

It was 1,600 years before the Empire, and Nagash's reign of terror that had lasted for 350 years had finally come to an end.

After this period of great darkness, Nehekhara's fortunes were greatly weakened, its resources and population were almost depleted, and the Nagash came out several times to stir up trouble, and although each time it was defeated by the coalition of the city-states, the whole country was exhausted by famine and war, and the people were not able to survive.

It wasn't until 400 years later that the Sixth Dynasty of Nehekhara finally had a clear king, Arcadiza the Conqueror, who, with his great charisma and military prowess, once again unified the city-states of Nehekhara and revived this ancient kingdom with a long history.

But don't forget, they also have a terrifying and deadly enemy waiting in the dark for the day of vengeance, this time bringing not just war, but eternal death.
