The First Black Veil War

The First Black Veil War was a conflict the occurred in Beltheria in the 8th Century of the 9th Era. The war fought between the forces of The Wise Council of Beltheria and the undead legions of The Necromancer.
It is unknown when the war exactly started, the only surviving record of this time is a letter from an unnamed lord to the warden of the area:After this,
there are few records of the war that followed. The undead forces took town
after town, making their way ever northward. While most accounts of this first
blight are written decades after it occurred, there are few scattered accounts
that were written at the time. Mostly correspondence between generals and
lords.
Eventually the undead were eventually defeated by the Council, but the southern half of Beltheria could not be retaken. Strange obelisks had been erected that spewed forth great cloud of black fog that lent strength to the legions of The Necromancer. 
The last battle was fought at the Pass of Vulthrox, where the Beltherians were able to halt the undead advance and drive them south. Unable to reclaim the lands of the south, the council erected the fortress of Blackguard Keep, to serve as a bulwark against any future attacks.
