The Battle of Red Ridge

Military: Battle

The forces of Verdant Filt thought they had successfully outflanked Emperor Valtarian army in a valley nearby Corrinth, and were in position to attack down onto the army convoy from the bordering ridge. However, Emperor Valtarian had a regiment of The Defiled bury themselves completely under the dirt on the ridge, and as soon as Filt's troops began charging down into the valley, the ground rose up behind them, and they were surrounded. The army convoy turned towards Filt's army and formed a wall of pikes, and the army was crushed between the two forces. Verdant Filt was captured at this battle, and later hanged at FILT FAMILY HOME. Some blame the Emont Sylvar, or other members of The Sylvar Family for supposedly leaking information of the attack to the emperor in return for the position of Grand Viceroy after the war.   Hidden Treasure: Text me 51827 for a bonus single-use magic item
