    Battle of Dunwell
    Military: War

    A revolutionary force of Nordring supporters and anarchist agitators overthrew the imperial government of Dunwell. Interestingly, beyond the normal charges of such revolts, this one claimed that the local government had been corrupted by the occult and given to child sacrifices.   Strangely the Azrean priest in the village corroborated the story in his letters to the church in Caelum. He died soon after so a full testament could not be had.
