Battle of Baton-Gris
The corridors of silence were not named like that all for all it was, young one. Old records of storytelling tells that pass was actually lushful of green, with wondrous avian beasts passing by, and strong breezes that felt like the earth itself was breathing through. But it is but a chimera of old, even the oldest races hold few memories of this era, as it is now a pass where the wind dies, and the real of reality itself seems to have forgotten it, like an old painting void of colors. Few remains of the past stays there, but the bones of those that saw the divide remains as a grim reminder that this place is cursed to man.
The Conflict
Prelude
The main cause of the battle was initiated when the Order of Magisferum initiated the creation of an eldirtch mana battery by gathering and gathering it in a new source that seemed to absorb it without consequence. After the events of the Tear of The Veil, this holder was found a critical object to gather enough mana to produce an near-undepletable cataclysmic magic to fight against (country). Howver, the experiment when terribly wrong, and the battery became unstable, tearing a hole through the ground of the earth, destroying the mage tower, his denizens, into a bottomless pit of void energy.

Aftermath
All the whereabouts of the region were removed of all living species as the explosion manifested it's twisted arcane on all flora and fauna in less than a year. No sane person dare to pass the region, later named the corridors of silence, unless they have a death-wish worthy reason to do so. Rumors and tales of the void creatures still remains to this day. The region is still unclaimed by any neighbouring regions nearby, considered a no-man's land.
