– Art by Art of adrian smith

In the year 494 (1101 in the calendar of the Franks), when the armies of Shaytan marched forth following the catastrophe unleashed upon the world by the opening of the Gate to Jahannam, the Fatimid Caliphate of Egypt hastily mustered their forces to counter this threat in the Levant. The Fatimids force-marched across the desert in a desperate bid to protect the Two Holy Places of Islam, but their bravery was to no avail. The army of Cairo marched into an ambush after the elite Bāṭilīs cavalry became separated from the main force and lost contact with their commanders. Every night, they were picked off by afārīt of the waterless places. The weakened army was then assaulted from three sides. The Caliph himself fell in battle, with all of the Ḥujariyya bodyguards killed around him, and the servants of Satan built grotesque monuments from their dismembered remains.

The war alone did not weaken the realm. News came through envoys from the East, declaring that the Iron Wall of Iskander was given as protection of humanity by the grace of Allah, and all Those Who Believe were called upon to travel to the lands it protects. Many heeded the summons, but not all. Some feared the trek across lands held by the foul servants of Shaytan, while others loved their lands and argued the call was not a divine commandment but rather a dangerous undertaking for a dubious benefit. Nevertheless Egypt lost a great deal of its population to a mass migration. The Fatimid Caliphate was so weakened by the loss of their best troops as well as the great exodus of people seeking refuge behind the Iron Wall that central authority collapsed, casting the realm into chaos and leaving Egypt wide open to enemy invasion.

In this dark hour the Mamluks, an elite slave warrior caste of the Fatimids, stepped forth and claimed the empty throne, reorganising the weakened Egypt into a Mamluk Sultanate, and aggressively hiring Tuareg and Berber warriors to replenish the decimated army. The Mamluks refused to leave Egypt and their hard-won independence, despite the renewed calls from the Iron Sultanate to migrate to safety within the Iron Wall. Instead, the Mamluks prepared to defend their home.
