Rufu Aoa emerges in the city of Gled in 1650 [[Dantrian_calendar|SR]] and assumes power. He surrounds himself by a group of high ranking military officials, who are the representatives of the region's city states, and unites them under a single rule. He is, however, rarely seen and his whereabouts are frequently unclear even to his inner circle. It is thought that most of the operational decision making was done by his generals, although he provided at least some direction.

Unification was important, as the end of the [[Great Turtle war]] left [[Darda|dardians]] with no clear purpose, that allowed them to begin fighting for land and resources amongst themselves. Rufu's government very quickly quelled those fires, instead establishing what was essentially a legal system to distribute [[the Great Turtle]] land among the troops.
