You can pull out of the rebellion at any time by talking to him; when you do this he will leave Calradia forever, and the rebel faction will merge back with the original faction (if you are playing Original Mount&Blade) or will be taken over by you as a player kingdom (if.

Mount And Blade Bannerlord

It was never meant to be personal.

The late King Graveth's gambit all those years ago was one of necessity. The people were underfed, overworked, and on the verge of full scale revolutionary activity. A common enemy was needed.

It was supposed to be a simple target...

...But Graveth, former king of Rhodokia and loather of cats, was far from versed in the skill of calculated betting.

The army was crushed, scattered to the sands along with hope for the future. The hatred that was bred on those deserts survived, and the Rhodoks and Sarranids have viciously warred since.

Perhaps the most bitter rivalry among the lords of Calradia, the two kingdoms have paid each other back many times over: Jelkala sacked and recaptured, Almerra turned into a state of anarchy, and both Hakim and Graveth alike succumbing to the wars known as the 'Crusades'.

Their successors have not showed any signs of deescalation, continuing the endless flood of violence in many more battles. King /u/Perjunkie of Rhodoks has continued his predecessor's defensive strategy, defending the capital at all costs after it's reclamation by the founder of the Rhodok Republic, the late Lord Cakus.

Sultan /u/Arthanias of the Sarranids remembers the day that Jelkala was wrestled back from him all too well. Holding back until the time was right, he has now decided to once more take up the sword against the republicans of the west.

The leader of the Sultanate is a clever man: He could never hope to sack the city after it's repairs and reinforcements, at least alone. Some historians argue that the city would have remained in Sarranid hands if not for the Vaegir lords that Cakus had won over previously arriving in the nick of time to bolster the attackers' resolve.

But the Vaegirs are no longer friends of the Republic. Far from it. King /u/Perjunkie, in a confusing display of foreign policy, has renounced all support for the Vaegir Empire, spurning years of cooperation. Being a pragmatic people, the Vaegirs have chosen instead to honor their other long standing alliance with the Sarranids.
