War of Feyshadow

The War of Feyshadow was a cataclysmic event that shook the very foundations of the Feywild, plunging its vibrant and enchanted realms into darkness and chaos. At the heart of the conflict was an insidious corruption that spread like a malignant plague, twisting the inhabitants of the Feywild into grotesque and malevolent versions of themselves.
Origins of Corruption: The corruption that sparked the War of Feyshadow originated from the deepest recesses of the Feywild, where an ancient force unleashed a wave of corruption that swept across the Feywild like wildfire, infecting everything it touched. The one often considered responsible for unleashing this chaos on the feywilds is the The Devil, however, whether this is true or not is unknown.
Rise of the Twisted Fey: As the corruption spread, the once-benevolent inhabitants of the Feywild were transformed into twisted and malevolent creatures known as the Feyshadow. These corrupted beings retained fragments of their former selves but often behaved in a manner antithetical to their previous behaviour, now consumed by darkness and driven by a primal hunger for destruction and chaos.
The Fey Courts: The noble fey courts, once bastions of harmony and beauty, were torn asunder by the war. The Court of Summer, led by Queen Aestas, was the primary force in the war. With the aid of the court of Spring and Autumn, led by King Ver and Queen Cadere respectively, fought valiantly to stem the tide of corruption and protect their realm from destruction. Meanwhile, the Court of Winter, led by King Hiems vanished into the shadows, their motives shrouded in mystery.
Heroes of the Feywild: Amidst the chaos of war, brave heroes emerged to challenge the darkness and restore balance to the Feywild. Among them were legendary figures such as Archmage Elara Brightwing who served as a magical advisory to Queen Aestas, as well as aided in maintaining diplomatic order within the fey courts after the court of winter vanished. Along with the wizard Aelar Windstrider  whose sacrifice was instrumental in the defence of the The Academy of Arcane Arts during the war.
The Academy's Involvement: The Academy of Arcane Arts played a pivotal role in the War of Feyshadow, serving as a beacon of hope and sanctuary amidst the darkness. As the corruption spread, students and faculty alike rallied to defend the Feywild from the encroaching threat, using their mastery of magic to ward off the Twisted Fey and protect the innocent.
The Battle of Sylvan Glade: One of the most pivotal events of the war was the Battle of Sylvan Glade, where the forces of light and darkness clashed in a titanic struggle for the fate of the Feywild. Queen Aestas and her allies, acted as the defenders of the Feywild and fought bravely against the hordes of Twisted Fey, ultimately emerging victorious and driving back the forces of corruption.
Restoration of Balance: In the aftermath of the war, the Feywild lay scarred and wounded, but not beyond hope. With the aid of the heroes of the Feywild and the noble sacrifices of countless beings, the corruption was purged from the realm, and balance was restored once more. Though scars of the war remained, the Feywild began to heal, and its inhabitants looked to the future with renewed hope and determination.
