The Red Raids were a series of attacks and invasions carried out over multiple years by the Carja military under orders from the 13th Sun-King Jiran against other tribes such as the Nora and Oseram. In these raids, Carja soldiers captured and brutally murdered their foes, killing indiscriminately with the goal of glorifying their god, the Sun. Captured individuals were either sold into slavery or sacrificed (most often in the Sun-Ring) in an effort to appease the Carja god and end the derangement of the machines.
