 * -Balian Imrahil

It was during his fourteenth birthday that Sauron launched his campaign to turn the leadership of Dol Amroth towards his sphere of influence. Sauron had already silently pushed Umbar over to his sphere of influence and all he needed was for the vast armies of Dol Amroth to sit idle, as well as the huge trading missions were stopped going into Gondor. He promised the royalty of Dol Amroth unending wealth if they would simply declare independance and then not assist Gondor during the coming conflict. The vast majority of the population was extremely loyal to Gondor so this idea wasn't very popular and to keep control the members of Dol Amroth begin spreading lies amongst the nobles about Gondor's betrayal of them. They did not attempt to turn the opinion of the public, as the public was so against independance that it was a hopeless fight. As the nobles turned against Gondor they moved against Gondor's influence in the region and begin targetting Gondor loyalist houses, and this begin to turn the sway away frrom Gondor in the region. As this continued though the Gondorian loyalists became unified under House Elena of whom attempted to get word to Gondor about what was happening but it was at this time that the betrayal of Sauruman would be revealed.



Betrayal of Sauraman
Sauruman was a member of the Istari and thus he would travel from the lands of Gondor south to Dol Amroth and it was during one of these travels that he would be sent by Sauron in order to end the resistence of Dol Amroth. While the forces of Castamir held the borders therebye not allowing any messengers to reach Gondor about Dol Amroth the Istari Sauruman was greeted as a savior. He infiltrated the leadership of House Elena and became extremely close to its leader in Aradur Elena of whom took control of the Anroth city of Linhir and begin to gather support for his counter revolution. As Aradur led this the forces of House Imrahil moved their forces to besiege Linhir, but even as they did this they begin to lose control of the lands because the population was so against working with Sauron. It would be Aradur's son Oropher who would tell him that they were going to win the land and they didn't need Saramaun and his trickery to win this. His speach has become now legendary amongst the halls of House Elena.


 * "Father ninety percent of this land believe in you. The only men who do not wish to follow you into whatever abyss awaits us if Sauron wins, are those who like you are listenting to this wizard with nothing but lies steaming from his toung. We must turn away from him, and do this on our own or we shall wake up one day to find his dagger in all of our backs."


 * -Oropher Elena

Aradur though was ensnared by the Grey Istari and would mass a large force and prepare to battle the forces of House Imrahil. The two forces would meet outside Linhir which was still under siege, but it was here where just as Oropher had advised the trickery of Saramaun would come full circle and he would assasinate Aradur, and three of his sons along with much of the leadership of the rebellion. With the leadership in tatters the rebels surrendered, and while scattered resistence continued, the destruction of much of House Elena was the basic end of the resistence of Dol Amroth. With the end of the resistence the forces of House Imrahil suffered a huge loss when Balian Imrahil the at the time heir to the throne gathered his siblings and fled the capital of Belfalas. His departure caused a massive manhunt for him and his siblings but they were protected by the people of Dol Amroth who were violently opposed to his father and his desires.

 * "I just assumed that we would be saving my mother. When I convinsed my siblings to go back for her It seemed a certainty that we would just go into her room and she would just quickly rush out with. It never occured to me that she might say no, let alone threaten to turn us in."
 * -Susan Imrahil

As Balian led his family out of the capital Susan became irate as she realized that they didn't mean to stop and get their mother during their escape. Balian begged her to understand that she wouldn't follow them as her loyalty was with their father, but she wouldn't listen to him, and begin heading to their palace where she planned to convinse her mother to come with them. Balian snuck the group through loyalist houses as they were not yet believed to be fleeing the city. When they got inside the Palace they found their mother sitting at her spinning wheel making some kind of sweater, and it was Susan that was the first to speak explaining to her mother that she needed to come with them because Varian had lost his mind. Brooke sat unmoving for a time not saying a word as each of her children begged her to come with them. When finally she sat up from the table she moved toward the alarm horn that was located in her room and prepared to blow the horn. Susan ran to her and questioned what she was doing, and her responce was the moment they all knew where her loyalites lie.
 * "I love all of you. You are my children and that alone means that I love each of you more then I could ever love your father. I love all of you the most of anything I love in this world, and it is a sad truth that the only thing I love more is this land. I will protect this land from whatever harm may come its way, and today that is you. I will give you an hour to get away but then I blow this horn and you will be hunted. You will be captured and brought back here to explain for your crimes. Go now children, our time together has come to an end."
 * -Brooke Imrahil

With this knowledge the siblings who were now horrified were moved out by Balian of whom led them quickly out of the capital and southward. For Susan this departure was far more difficult and her last sight of her mother was her mother returning silently to her spinning wheel and not even watching her children leaving her for what could be for good.



Escape of Balian, and Oropher
Oropher was left in charge of the defences of Linhir in the case they lost the battle so he was defending the city when he saw the surrender of his father's force. Realizing quickly that the situation had changed he gathered as many of his family, and loyalists that he could and silently made his way to the southern port of Rinlis where he planned to take a boat and silently sail to the port of Venetia and then north in Lucerne where he would take the safter back way into Gondor. As he left the city news broke to Balian that Oropher had escaped and he made the hopeful guess that Oropher would travel the southern road and not go west. While travelling on the road south he and his force would be stopped by Balian Imrahil of whom would beg him to take his family with him or elce he would be forced to take part in this henious act.

"There was always the distinct chance that I was wrong and that Oropher was going west. Had he of made that decision me and my siblings would be hidden away in Belfalas. Locked in our rooms forced to remain prisoners of a land long berift of Lordship."

-Balian Imrahil

Oropher would take Balian and his siblings and they would arrive safely in Rinlis where the population snuck them inside and they boarded boats. Weeks later they would arrive in Stormwind where they would rest before they made the final treck to Minas Tirith and it was while staying there that they heard that Gondor had been betrayed from within and was fighting for its life. The group would then leave nearly immediatly and make the three day treck on horseback to Minus Tirith of which they found the city nearly drained as the majority of the town had gone east to defend from the onslaught.
