Olympus Has Fallen

The dissolution of the Olympians in early April of Imperial Year 2700 came as a surprise to the entire Northlands community. A one time contender for the supreme ruler of the Northlands, the Olympians had entered a slow process of decline that was speculated to have begun with Dread Karn's misfortunes in the Bloody Christmas Incident. Operation Rising Phoenix and both the First and Second Battles of Mount Yeti further pushed the group into decline. In particular, Image Goddess' victory during the Second Battle of Mount Yeti, coupled with the Olympian's temporary loss of Mount Yeti during Operation Rising Phoenix were instrumental in ushering in a renaissance among the mercenaries of the Northlands. By the end of the February turmoil, a new power balance had stabilized in the Northlands known as The Northern Triad. The Olympians grasp on power had dwindled to controlling only about a third of the Northlands. In the month following, internal turmoil and the semi-permanent return of Dread Karn to Cape Gerudo ultimately led to the group's dissolution and along with it the crumbling of the Northern Triad.
