The Ruination of Lazurn

Disaster / Destruction

Here is an accurate historical account of the ruination of the city of Lazurn.

In 364 A.Z. there was a massive drought recorded. The land had become dry and baron right as the harvest looked to be the most bountiful yet. The High priest, Erick Pinn, went in to beg his deity, Icspa, to grant them rain to reap the harvest. The next day, it began to rain, however it did not stop. Lazurn was flooded in a matter of hours from the downpour. Weak and starving, the flood washed many citizens away. It destroyed homes and buildings. The High Priest managed to escape but his citizens did not, nor did his city. When the rain settled nothing ever grew here again. Baron and bare, the city was destroyed and never inhabited again. Today the location is marked by the golden statue of Icspa, the only part of the city never to be touched by sand. This is how the Icspan Desert got its' name, and Lazurn was destroyed for good. Erick Pinn managed to flee the city along with a few guards who protected him as he left his people to their demise.
