The Battle of Muun Tok was a brutal and decisive encounter in 487, marking one of the most infamous defeats in Seregon’s history. Sent to subdue the growing threats within the ancient ruins of the Black City, Seregon’s Sixth Army of Exploration marched with confidence into the dense jungles around Muun Tok, seeking to secure the obsidian-rich territory and eliminate the looming menace of the Gorilla King, Ruthazek. However, what began as a campaign of dominance quickly turned into a massacre.
The Sixth Army entered Muun Tok’s shadowed ruins, unaware that they were being watched from the treetops and stone ziggurats. At dawn, the Gorilla King Ruthazek unleashed his sentient gorillas, beastmen, and awakened apes in a devastating ambush, using Muun Tok’s jungle traps and familiar terrain to their full advantage. The apes, guided by Ruthazek’s cunning and empowered by Angazhan’s totem, struck with precision and brutality, overwhelming Seregon’s forces and driving them into the city’s deadly traps. The gorilla warriors moved with terrifying coordination, severing communication lines and cutting off escape routes.
By midday, the Sixth Army was in shambles. Of the thousands who entered, only a handful managed to escape the carnage, returning to Seregon with harrowing tales of giant apes, brutal traps, and the Gorilla King’s human-skin drums echoing through the Black City. The massacre at Muun Tok not only shattered Seregon’s confidence in their reach across Moog but cemented Ruthazek’s fearsome reputation as a conqueror, leaving Muun Tok as a haunted, forbidden place for generations to come.
