History of Varenya

The Varenyan fleet under the command of Earl Kevyn Fynnen ambush and destroy the Nilvuni fleet.

The fight for Wolfsbridge between King Alessians loyalists and the rebels ensues, when the heir to Yellowreach, Herman Godsent is informed, that the allied Melwyn armies were spotted on the horizon. In his rashness he attacked lords Eryk and Robert Goldsmith, whom he was playing cards with minutes ago. Thanks to the rough terrain and the phenomenal work of Varenian skirmishers, the Melwyn forces where stalled until after the battle inside the castle was finished. The Earl Marcus Vollor and Lord Hugh Barryn managed to flee the battle, before figuring out who was fighting whom. The Lords Levys Phale, Eden Mykk and Earls Devyn Ernys, Jacob Nyman and Thomas Mykk are imprisoned together with Rebel Earls Thomas Bynd, Davyd Mykk and Lord Eryk Wynn, because they could not prove their loyalty in the battle, due to being in a different part of the castle or alltogether unaffected.   casualties: Loyalists: Lord Eryk Goldsmith, Lord Robert Goldsmith, Earl Ian Heartfall, Lord Peter Heartfall, Earl Walter Lyndon. Rebels: Earl Hugh Scalen, Lord Herman Godsent, Lord Gregor Wynn

4 days after defeating the rebels inside the Castle, Wolfsbridge is besieged by a combined host made up of rebel forces and armies from Melwyn. When Melwyn forces broke through the gate of the last tower, King Vannon knew he had lost. In a last effort to save his honor and his men, he offered to fight any champion from the enemy host, one on one. He was instead attacked by a dozen men and nearly killed. When he was beaten near death and half unconcious, they paraded him through the castle, so he could see all his slain allies. Afterwards they tortured the Kings closest friend, Earl Gregor Hymmen and Lord Richard Ernys to death in front of the deposed King.   casualties: Loyalist: Duke Harold Hyth, Duke Yven Goldsmith, Earl Gregor Hymmen, Lord Richard Ernys, Lord Devon Hyth Rebel: Melwyn:
