The Great Darkness of the North
Metaphysical / Paranormal event
14/8
The clouds thicken over time and come to blot out the sun, leading to thickening of the ice shelf south of Kalte . This effectively isolates Kalte from the rest of Magnamund except for four months of the year during summer. The sun ceases to shine brightly on the Tundra and the nights lengthen, leading to a variety of paranormal and life-threatening events.
The The Antiquarian Association succeeds in killing Auril, Ice Witch , preventing her from sustaining the darkness. It remains to be seen whether it will abate over time, or if the ecological damage continues.

The Ice Witches of Kalte command undead during the first winter of 5094 to attack the various civilized areas of Kalte . They effectively extort monthly offerings from the governments of the villages there, ranging from monthly human sacrifices to nights of no heat, endangering the local populace.
After that, undead attacks are limited to the wild tundra, but the morale of the new citizens of Kalte suffer from their vacillation. And month after month, more calamities occur that slowly erode the people's desire to hold on.
