War of Three Kings

The War of Three Kings was a conflict in Zalemia between three rival claimants to the throne.

Wigemor II
Wigemor II of the House of Magenhelm was the rightful King of Zalemia. However, he was deeply unpopular, especially among the peasantry, for his cruelty, unfair government, and general neglect of his people.

Renberht
Renberht was a skilled but lowborn warrior and man of the people. He was supported by most of the Zalemish peasants.

Redmark of Ullond
Redmark was a younger son of Gevor IV of Ullond (and thus a maternal cousin of Wigemor II) who decided to seek his fortune outside of Ullond by claiming the Zalemish throne. He would go on to establish the House of Redmark, and his descendants would rule the Kingdom of Zalemia until 1371, with the death of King Elgun V.
