== Displacement of Negy ==
== The war with Negy and death ==
By this time the [[Negy]] became the biggest threat to the Dolysoh dynasty, with [[Oskodon]], a [[superhero warrior]] known as the Negy King, expanding his territory beyond Dol. Reacting to this, Opol began a campaign in 1805 [[FR]] that lasted for two years. However, Oskodon and his forces were able to not only fight back, but also lay claim to Palas. For the next three years the conflict stalled, but resumed in full force at the end of 1810, this time leading to the displacement of Negy to the south of Dol.
This was not enough for Opol, who wanted Oskodon personally dead. He therefore dedicated himself to the war, while passing on the title of gole to his son Meerō in 1811 [[FR]].
In the next four years, Opol's army was able to capture territories just north of the Negy Chain, forcing most Negy to fall back. In 1815 a key battle at the Uzar mountain saw both Opol and Oskodon die in action. The battle was won by Toor and remaining Oskodon troops were forced to flee into the Konzoh desert, where they most probably perished, as no further records of Oskodon's forces exist.

Opol's name might have been mentioned in the [[Great Lore]]: according to [[Porteek]], the story of how Opol poisoned Sopoh was mentioned in one of the songs. Opol is conspicuously not mentioned in the [[Swift Hen]]. Instead, Byskoh is named as the successor to Sopoh, although she is not considered as part of the [[Mōroh|True Lineage]].
