* **Kuthona 5th, Year 1000:** An extremely powerful storm appears over Haven, hitting it with significant flooding and lightning damage. Most of it is centered on the Temple of Sarenrae; in a daring attack, the Necromancer known as **The Crow** lays siege to the temple, and claims the individual known as **Bahl** as one of her Graveknights, Pestilence. A fight ensues between The Crow, **J-hara**, **Ruuska**, and **Scharp Thompson**, as well as The Crow herself and her minions. No one is killed, but Bahl is successfully 'rescued' or kidnapped.

* **Abadius 8th, Year 1001:** A daring and risky attack is staged upon **The Pale King** and his Lieutenants. A large swath of heroes and adventurers are sent to attack him, and bring him to justice. Many adventurers die, and even the dragon of **Telula Firebrand**, Firebrand, is killed in the action. **Elder Wizard Daximus** is also decimated, but as are all of The Pale King's Lieutenants, and the Pale King himself was brutally killed.
* **Abadius 9th, Year 1001:** The **Third Orcish War** ends, with the Kingdom of Egron ending victorious.

## Ramifications

Although the Kingdom of Egron took few losses in terms of civilian life, other than Silverwatch, the the Londorwin Tribes that were largely forced into the conflict by ever increasing Egronian parties and adventurers, were significantly decimated. Many of their greatest heroes, legends, and leaders - as well as themselves - were either forcefully conscripted and killed, or otherwise corrupted by the malicious forces the Pale King had contracted.

Londorwin will no doubt take many years to recover, but with the rule of **Gaz'ral the Fist**, they may have a chance. Gaz'ral has, notably, attempted to keep amicable relations with the Kingdom of Egron since he took command, and for now, no other orcs dare to challenge him.
