Conflict in the Reaches

Civil action

The turn of the century also saw the first of a series of sharp battles between irregulars sponsored by Aundair and Breland in the southern Eldeen Reaches.

Little more than well-armed bandits, these proxies engaged in some of the nastiest fighting of the war—magical atrocities, guerrilla ambushes, the murder of prisoners of war, and other crimes were all alleged in this sparsely populated backwoods region. Although the events were widely reported, and all knew the powers behind the fighting, both Aundair and Breland officially denied any responsibility.
