The Crusades of 1312
This was the time of the
scattered and defeated Iksar
empire. The great dragon,
Trakanon and his allies of
scale had left the empire
in rubble and our people were
divided yet again. The once
grand city of Sebilis was
claimed by the one who
decimated it.
The remaining Iksar were
| scattered among the outlands
of Kunark. Their places of
refuge were now the dwellings of
dark denizens. In the wilds
a few castes came to unite.
One of these was the
remnants of the Crusaders
of Greenmist. They were led
by a powerful shadowknight
named Rok Nilok.
The army of shadowknights
|
|
numbered in the hundreds.
Within their ranks were a few
mystics and legionnaires.
The tribe named itself after
their leader,
The Crusaders of Rok
Nilok, and they would purge
the lands of Kunark.
The Crusaders burned across
| the Dreadlands and death
came quickly to those who
dared stand in their way.
They slew many giants and
many goblins. There would be
no prisoners or slaves. The
empire shall be rebuilt by
the hands of the Iksar. All
others shall perish.
Karnor's Castle was the first
|
|
major objective of the
Crusaders. It had been
taken over by a goblin clan.
The goblins would soon find
themselves under siege. For
twenty days they held ground
until the Crusaders chose
to assault as a band of
goblin deserters fled.
A swift battle ensued and
the castle was reclaimed.
The Crusaders then set
| their sights on the city
of Cabilis. While the march
was designed Rok Nilok
discovered something very
evil. Nothing is known of
his discovery. No record
exists of its evil. All
that is known is that Rok
Nilok made a pact and soon
shall suffer for it.
During the battle for Cabilis
|
|
a strange rain fell which
shrunk them to the size of
dolls and their heads were set
aflame. Nilok's head burned
red and the goblins squashed
the would be emperor and his
minions.
