Mizorant (Total War)

Mizorant is a Twili king who ruled briefly before being assassinated by the Great Fairies of the Twilight.

Involvement
Shortly after Mizorant becomes King, the three Great Fairies Veran, Morsheen and Una approach him and attempt to turn him into their puppet so that they could rule through him, as they had done with all the Twili Kings before him. Having made many powerful allies before his rise to power, Mizorant rejects their command and banishes them from the Palace of Twilight, in the hopes of freeing the Twili Empire from their grip.

However he underestimated the power and influence the Fairies had within the state, and due to his arrogance they disband his armies against his will, effectively stripping him of his authority. Shortly afterwards they return to confront Mizorant in the Palace of Twilight, where they murder him for refusing them.

After killing Mizorant, the Fairies cast his son Zant aside and install Zant's fiancée Midna as the new Twili Queen, which ultimately leads to a civil war in which Zant seeks to reclaim his birthright.
