Factionists

When factionists are mentioned, they typically denote one of the factions vying for power in the current power vacuum. As there was no empress to take the throne after Shek'zeer's death and most of the Kypari trees were destroyed, causing widespread hunger, warbands formed to try and take the remaining trees and the throne by force or destroy them. The most notable are:
 * The Sun Uprising
 * The Shel'thik
 * Sha remnants
 * Shek'zeeri Harbingers
 * Various raider bands, contesting the living trees.
