Battle of the Long Night

Military action

Therendor 24th, 990YK

Valenar troops, as likely roving the plains looking for battle as working in the employ of Cyre, attacked and raised Fort Bones (Karrnath) in the Battle of the Long Night.


The Captain of Corpses, a particularly bloodthirsty warlord who led the relief column from Fort Zombie (Karrnath), pledged that the elves “and their Cyran paymasters” would regret their actions. For the remainder of the war, the bones of all the elves and humans slain in the area would be used to rebuild the walls.
