This marked the beginning of King Magnas' conquest of the Northern Realms.

The Siege of Tyrfelas
Military actionThe host of King Magnas I set camp on the western side of the River Vale and began bombarding Tyrfelas. The forces of Myr and Kedway crossed the river to the North near Castor, but were intercepted by a force led by Lord Mayor of Sharnwick, Eckhart Threshor. Though outnumbered, Lord Threshor successfully held off the host using harassing tactics, slowing the advance of the Myrian forces to a crawl, reeking havoc among their supply lines, and refusing to give them an open battle. Eventually, through miracle or dastardly schemes, agents of the Holy Speaker were able to infiltrate the camp of Lord Threshor's forces and affect a mutiny. Soon after Tyrfelas was surrounded, though her sturdy walls would hold for some months before starvation overcame the defenders.
