Over the next four months Dazen fought across the length and breadth of Atash, recruiting Generals like Corvan Danavis and Gad Delmarta to his cause. He sent Delmarta to pacify Ru, capital of Atash, only for the General to execute each and every one of the Atashian Royal Family in a brutal ceremony on the steps of the royal palace.

Both were worried about the deals they had made and the allies they were left with; much of Dazen's supporters came from the Satrapy of Tyrea, but others were mercenaries, butchers, or psychopaths like Gad Delmarta or the Ilytian Pirate Lords. This compared to more upstanding noble families from across the Seven Satrapies, who had declared for Gavin Guile instead.

The intervening events have had scant elaboration (particularly due to the use of black luxin on both sides) - Dazen himself describes how he never wanted the war to escalate further, but Gavin refused to accept his overtures of surrender on several occasions. It would later come to light that Gavin, and his father Andross through him, had capitalised on the opportunity to wipe out enemies and potential enemies of House Guile.

From Dazen's own recollections Gavin's forces attacked him at an unknown small village he had been hiding out in, presumably not far from the White Oak Mansion in Big Jasper. The unusual brutality and cruelty of this attack caused an army to 'coalesce' around Dazen without him even desiring such a thing. Dazen sent a messenger to parley with Gavin, who was subsequently killed, and Dazen fled - all the while gathering allies from families, clans, and tribes that were disaffected with the rule of Andross Guile, Gavin Guile, or the Chromeria itself.

After the Burning of Garriston (retaliation for Gad Delmarta's own atrocities in Ru), Dazen's army and Gavin's army spent weeks pursuing each other through Tyrea until they at last concluded their war at the Battle of Sundered Rock. Prior to this Dazen and Corvan Danavis had discussed the idea of Dazen killing and impersonating his brother, rather than trying to replace him.

The war's prelude began when Dazen discovered that he was a full-spectrum polychrome, upsetting Gavin, who had been named Prism, and who saw his brother as a threat. However, the situation might never have developed any further except that Andross Guile, father of Dazen and Gavin, made overtures to Rissum White Oak about marrying one of his sons to Rissum's daughter Karris. Andross, being a clever, conniving, and amoral man, told his sons that his plan was to tell Rissum that he wanted Gavin to marry Karris, meanwhile Dazen would seduce her. Andross would arrange it so that he and Rissum would walk in on them, Andross would pretend to be furious, and to save Karris' dignity (and, more importantly in the eyes of her father, the family's dignity,) Karris would be wed to Dazen, leaving Gavin, Andross' oldest son and greatest bargaining chip, free to marry someone else. The plan went awry when Karris and Dazen fell in love, and planned to meet at the White Oak estate and run away together. Rissum found out somehow, and kidnapped Karris, holding her prisoner in the White Oaks' apartments on Big Jasper. Meanwhile, Dazen arrived at the estate, and was told by a maid that Karris was inside. As soon as he stepped into the house, all seven of Karris' brothers attacked him, claiming that they were going to teach him a lesson for shaming their family by beating him to death. Dazen, who normally would not have been able to draft at night, split light for the first time, using the light from a nearby fire to draft all of the colours, and fought back against the brothers, killing 6 of them, and grievously wounding the seventh, Koios. During the battle, the mansion caught on fire, and Dazen fled. Unbeknownst to anyone until 16 years later, Koios survived his injuries and the burns he suffered in the fire, and went into hiding, only to emerge after 16 years as the Colour Prince, a polychromatic wight leading a insurrection against the Chromeria. As the news spread of the battle in the White Oak mansion and the blaze that engulfed it, the people assumed that Dazen had burned it down intentionally and maliciously.

Eventually Dazen received promises of support from several prominent Parian Mountain Clans, and brought his army up to the adjacent Satrapy of Tyrea in order to rendezvous with these clans. When it became clear that the messages he had received were falsified and the Parians had no intention of joining his cause, it soon became clear that Tyrea would prove the final engagement of the False Prism's War.

In the end the Battle of Sundered Rock came down to single combat between Dazen and Gavin Guile, during which Dazen overpowered his brother with the use of black luxin. Afterwards he would disguise himself as the fallen brother and draw a surrender out of General Danavis, ending the war.

The War Of The Prisms, also known as the Prism's War or the False Prism's War, depending on the views of the person talking about it, was the civil war fought between brothers Dazen and Gavin Guile over who would become Prism. Both brothers were full-spectrum polychromes and eligible to occupy the position, but given that the teachings of the Orholamic Faith decree that only one Prism is born in a generation, this resulted in a crisis of faith in the Satrapies as well as social upheaval.
