The Cataclysm of Umbranos

Disaster / Destruction

24ME
28/12

The Siege of Umbranos came to a sudden and desperate end when the Reborn Ishar Empire utilised a great and dreadful weapon.


Eleven years of constant siege from the Paladins of the Dawn had left the people of Umbranos desperate. During the siege the Reborn Empire was unable to adequately co-ordinate the unification of the old Ishar Citystates, weakening their hold and undermining their rule. As a result, the Empire put their best minds to work researching a way to break the siege and the Paladins: once and for all.   Their solution has been lost to time, fortunately, as it led to the complete destruction of both the assaulting Paladins of the Dawn, and the entire city of Umbranos. The entire area was coated in a powerful necrotic energy and some say that the battle still rages for eternity beyond the veil of the ethereal plane.
