Second Karrnathi Plague

Plague / Epidemic

At the turn of the century, Karrnath suffered a second bout of the plague at home

By the end of 900 YK, the feared military might of Karrnath was, at best, a largely stationary and defensive entity. In order to consolidate its forces and minimize supply lines, the nation essentially abandoned its prewar holdings south of Karrlakton and east of Vulyar; Cyre enjoyed the luxury of ignoring its eastern border. Although it would be decades before the country could contemplate major offensive operations, Karrnathi pride and military tradition would not allow it to be completely passive.   Through force of will and appeals to elite soldiers, King Kaius was able to organize various small-scale sorties. For the remainder of the war, these raids ranged across the continent—from the northern coast of Aundair to the Eldeen Reaches to the southern portions of Scions Sound to the Talenta Plains. Later in the war, as relations with Breland deteriorated, operations began in Droaam and the Brelish heartland.
