    Flight of Wyverns destroys Chilney
    Disaster / Destruction

    Wyverns live high in the mountains where they are the undoubted apex predators. Every so often (once a century or so), they will come down out of the mountains in a flight, destroying small villages and towns, before returning to their mountain homes. This day, they ventured forth and laid waste to Chilney, a small city. Ilisuaqia placed a sizable bounty on wyverns after this in an attempt to cull the population. Antique wyvern-hide armor can still be found in the surrounding area. Chilney has since been rebuilt.
