Plague / Epidemic
As the war on rats ends, the plague takes its toll on the empires living. One of the most powerful lords of the empire, Vhan of House Vorsell succumbs to the plague.
The saurian lords have come back victorious from the rat war. Only... they were afflicted with a plague carried by rats and their filth, thus doomed. As lord after lord perished, conflicts would begin to arise over inheritance, as it always does. The feud between the inheritor of House Vorsells treasures threatens to escalate into a full civil war, forcing the court to take action.
