The destruction of the orb in the Champions of Meridell plotline was only the beginning of Meridell's troubles. Aparently, 'happily ever after' was still a long way away. The Battle for Meridell takes place almost a year later on February 2, 2004
You can view the comics here. This was the first extensive use of Flash for plot comics.
The war was one-sided and a special War Room was set up to keep track of progress:

2nd February Unfortunately you will have to upgrade to Flash 7 in order to see the plot. We are going to be globally updating our games and flash animations to this new version over the coming months, and it's worth upgrading anyway as apparently it runs a lot smoother.
