    The Battle of the 8 Heroes
    Cultural event

    The battle between the eight heroes of what would later be known as the Forgelands, where eight unrelated people used Essence to battle the Terror of the Firelands, a Colossus that roamed the land. The Terror destroyed the lands on an almost weekly basis, but this night eight people killed it. This caused a change in the political landscape of the Firelands and the eventual creation of the 8 Clans of V'Rok Risten.
