Caern Wars

The Caern Wars describes a brief but brutal series of events between the Garou of the Shifter and the Magi of the Traditions.

Having already a great deal of mistrust for the other, it took the Nephandi and /or the Black Spiral Dancers only a moderate amount of effort to push one side against the other. The ensuing conflict nearly destroyed both sides.

The conflict started small, in raids against one another to either raid Caerns for Tass/Quint or to strike back for said raids. As the Garou became more militant and adversarial, the Magi closed ranks and split their efforts in defending their numbers and launching counter attacks to push back the assault of the Garou.

The conflict managed to stay 'mostly' out of the public view but eventually ended in the Fall of Red Rock.
