A Wheel of Time Wiki

The Battle of Four Kings was fought during the War of the Hundred Years in what was then the western part of Andor.

In FY 1063 no less than four rival kings envious of the growing power of Andor united their armies and invaded the kingdom, marching on Caemlyn. Queen Maragaine led the Andoran army into battle, meeting them some distance west of the River Cary. In a furious battle, in which Queen Maragaine is often depicted personally leading a charge, the Andorans broke the invading force and routed it, securing the future survival of the kingdom.

The battle is noteworthy as one of the two most serious recorded threats to Andor's survival during the War of the Hundred Years, the other being the invasion of Andor launched by Esmara Getares thirty years later.

The town of Four Kings later grew up on the site of the battle.
