The Rise of Sotek was a catacylsmic event that shook the jungle-continent of Lustria around the year of -1339 IC, a conflict that has resulted in one of the longest war ever fought between the Lizardmen Empire of Lustria and the Skavens of Clan Pestilen. This massive continental invasion ravaged the continent of Lustria for nearly 1,000 years, until the day came when Sotek, God of Serpents unleashed his holy wrath upon the ratmen clans, finally forcing the Skaven host off the continent in a mass Exodus towards the Southlands.
