Siege of Angwar Keep

Military action

Eyre 9th, 980 YK - Lharvion 2nd, 981 YK

The Karrns sail across Scions Sound and occupy the Shadukar Peninsula, sieging Angwar Keep for over a year before retreating back to Korth.


Sensing Thrane weakness, the Karrnathi navy worked feverishly that winter to build additional troop barges. In the early spring of 980YK, as soon as the weather on Scions Sound cleared, General Vedim ir’Omik led both living and undead Karrnath legions back to the Shadukar Peninsula.   The Karrns overran Olath and besieged Angwar Keep. General Omik held the area for a year, but the siege was ultimately unsuccessful. Despite a small garrison, the Thranes had strong walls and plentiful supplies of courage—no doubt buttressed by fear of a Shadukarlike massacre. In time, the Karrns declared victory and sailed back to Korth.
