Meerō Dolysoh

Meerō Dolysoh /'miːrɒ dɑ'liːsə/ was the third Gole of Toor. His reign was probably the most uncontested among all other monarchs of the Dolysoh dynasty, but he was considered a weak and indecisive ruler. The family's declining influence led to an almost successful coup by several of his generals. It was thwarted by Meerō's unexpected death from an illness, which triggered an automatic succession of power to Gole's son Mosk-Sopoh.

Reign

Meerō's reign started during the campaign against the Negy and he was respected as the son of a great father. However, after the passing of Opol in 1815 FR and the passing of Byskoh in 1816 just mere months later, Meerō experienced a breakdown from which he never truly recovered. He became moody and indecisive, and short bursts of activity would be followed by long bouts of depression.

Meerō did begin a series of campaigns against the Laeooy Coast in honor of his father who wanted to subjugate the territory. Four separate campaigns - 1824-1825, 1829-1831, 1834-1835 and 1841-1842 - were fairly successful, but all stopped short of actually finishing the job, with Meerō's inconsistent strategy and erratic behavior leading to bizarre decisions. The first campaign, for example, which reached the city-state of Troun, failed to confront it, with Meerō suddenly turning the army around. Confused generals tried to interpret Meerō's actions as having religious significance, and the army eventually returned to Gaskal.

The second campaign was similarly odd, with Meerō ordering his forces to the south at Frooj. The army made an exhausting crossing of Kōnzoh and then returned back through Uzar, Dol and Palas. According to Porteek, Meerō's goal was a pilgrimage to the place of death of his father and then his mother.
