The Horothrium War is a conflict between the Horothrium Hegemony and the Nymean Ascendancy being fought in the Unknown Regions. However, the war did not start overnight. Relations between the Horothrium and the Nymeans have never been open or good. The Horothrium, a natural predatory species, has the innate desire to conquer all that they see. For hundreds of years, they have conquered planets and governments without stop. Only constant raids and threats of total invasion by the Vagaari kept the Horothrium from attacking Nulvar and Areltsi before they did.
