The Invasion of Tristain

The Invasion of Tristain was an important event in the Zero no Tsukaima universe as it resulted in the equally important Invasion of Albion as well as the first true use of Louise's Void Magic.

The Lead-up to Invasion
In the months leading up to the invasion Reconquista, a radical political group, began a civil war against King James I of Albion and his supporters. Due to a lack of support with both nobles and plebeians, the Royal faction was reduced to a small force under Crown Prince Wales based in the fortress of Newcastle. By the time Louise and Viscount Wardes arrived the situation had become so hopeless that Wales and his troops had agreed that their final fight would be their last.
