The Defence of Qosx

The Defence of Qosx was a conflict between the people of Qosx and an invading army of mind flayers. The battle was a bloodbath, resulting in the death of roughly half of Qosx's defensive forces as well as the entire invasion force. The defensive side came out on top due to the assistance of dragon Eshtralaxikaath, who participated in the conflict in exchange for ownership of Qosx and the rest of Aidek Isle.
