In the northern reaches of Urmika, a people known as the Dalians settled and lived in the area. They were regular traders with the Zabbai and had an incredibly similar language as well as culture to their neighbours in the south. Many claimed that the Dalians were actually Zabbai who had lost their way, abandoning Wyka and the Travellers in favour of another God, one who was not a Traveller. The Zabbai tolerated this heresy for many years, however after a Lord-Missionary was murdered by a local town mob, that era of tolerance had ended. The current Zab of the Kingdom, Aun'O Vash'ya Zabbai wished to bring them into the fold of Wyka, this of course could only be done with the deployment of the Shan'al, or, The Light Spreaders. The Shan'al was a large army of Missionary-Warriors who were not only skilled in war, but also in the faith, they were the perfect force to subjugate and reeducate an unruly population.

The army was made up of 500 Shan'al, and over 2000 warriors from the Levanites. The Levanite force was the bulk as they were just warriors raised up from towns, villages, and cities. The Shan'al however were highly trained and were the elite force of the Zabbai, they would not only destroy enemy forces as they met them, but also help placate the masses so that the annexation of territory could be done without problem. The Shan'al were also equipped with better equipment than the Levanites, the Shan'al usually had metal weapons, most likely swords. While the Levanites had weapons made of stone and obsidian, usually spears or clubs. The force, dubbed "Sa'cea", or, The First, was led by Shas'El Xral'hin, a Missionary-Warrior who was raised by the current Zab. He was given command as his first position, he would try to gain favour with the Zab and cement himself in the Shas caste. After all, the main reason for this 'conversion' was for the Greater Good, a concept in Zabbai religion known as "Zab'va", the underlying principle behind every act by a Zabbai.

The Dalian conversion was recorded by a Missionary-Warrior known as Shas'La Ril'rax in letters to his mother.

We entered the Dalian lands and was greeted by a force of Slaves, still chained together but with weapons in hands. We offered them a chance to surrender their weapons and be free under Zab, however, they refused. We killed almost all of them without taking any casualties, our archers did most of the work.

We marched through village to village, converting all that would hear our words. Our goal is to spread the words of the Travellers, teach all about the Zab'va, but many reject our teachings. They are either killed or sent to work in the Chantry as helpers for our Priests.

Brilliance! We have destroyed the main force of the Dalians, many even refused to fight us as they considered our cause just and right! The ones that did fight were cut down easily by the Shan'al, even the Levanite forces killed their fair share, despite their savagery and borderline heresy. Our final march is into Dalia, the capital, we will convert these evil men and women to the Zab'va!

I apologise for my late letter, the siege of Dalia took many days, but they begun to starve and surrendered the city to us. Our Shas'El, Xral'hin, wished to purify the city from all sin. So we burnt the place to the ground, the people living there were given a chance to leave, ones who didn't were sent to the Chantry. The ones who did leave will be allowed to rebuild their city after 5 years, a sufficient time for the sin and evil to leave that ashy landscape. I have captured three of my own servants to send to the Chantry, I have also cut down five men! I will be rewarded once I ascend to the Traveller's Fleet!

With that, the Dalians had been converted to the Zab'va and were now under the protection of the Zabbai. It would be one of many forced conversions under the heel of the Zab.
