Edit
In 1131 the naga army led by the Qamar began to fight in the Dragon lands. [1]
Joining of the Brotherhood Edit
The naga were suddenly halted by the appearance of the Brotherhood of Shinsei. Many believed the Brotherhood were there to parley with the Naga to end hostilities, but when the Brotherhood, mostly former Togashi Ise Zumi led by Hoshi joined forces with the Naga, many were taken aback. [2] Hitomi's own brother, Mirumoto Daini chose to side with the Naga. [3]

The Brotherhood horrified with the bloodbath withdrew the Naga, but Hoshi and his followers remained. [6]
Shiro Mirumoto Edit

Naga Storms Mirumoto Mountain Edit
Added by Oni no PikachuThe Naga cut all the paths to Kyuden Hitomi. The siege lasted until 1132 when Toku commanded to take the Monkey Clan and end the fighting in Dragon lands.
