However, following the death of the Horror of the Viridian Marsh, she becomes involved in a conflict with Arelen over the newly liberated lands near the river's estuary.

History
Irian has spent centuries fighting Creatures of Corruption alongside Arelen, the Altar Sage. Together, they defended their respective territories, with Arelen protecting one side of the river and Irian protecting the other.[1]
Their longstanding efforts helped maintain peace and protect human settlements from Nightmare Creatures. The two heroes lived in peace for centuries, and their partnership became well known throughout the realm.[1]
Death of the Horror of the Viridian Marsh
The Death of the Horror of the Viridian Marsh For generations, the Horror of the Viridian Marsh, a Corrupted Tyrant, haunted the borders of Arelen's and Irian's lands. Both Transcendents tried and failed to kill it over the course of centuries.[1]
All those months before the events of the passage, Noctis ventured into the marsh, fought a great battle, killed the Tyrant, and slaughtered its brood.[1]
With the Tyrant gone and its minions either slain or scattered, the surrounding lands were left without a master. These territories included miraculously fertile land near the estuary of the river and precious minerals hidden in the depths of the marsh.[1]
Conflict with Arelen
Following the Tyrant's death, both Irian and Arelen wanted to claim the newly liberated territory. Before consulting with Arelen and reaching an agreement, Irian sent settlers to establish a settlement in the land because her people needed food.[1]
Arelen responded by ordering his warriors to raze the settlement and slaughter Irian's people. Following this act, Irian assembled an army to besiege Arelen's city and lay claim to his lands.[1]
Arelen explains that Irian is coming to exact her vengeance. Their conflict has escalated into a war in which both rulers seek control of valuable territory and resources.[1]References
