Major events 2
Darkfaller Raid
Battle · Year 8
The rescue assault on Darkfaller Castle, mounted to recover the magi and Talented commoners that Mycin Amana, the so-called Witch Queen, had abducted en masse from the Sevendor Magic Fair. All captives recovered; Mycin Amana retained Darkfaller. The raid drew first blood against her court, drained her of half her Paranchek, exposed the Otherworld-conjoined necromantic field at the heart of the castle, and set up the eventual Siege of Darkfaller.
Tavard's Siege of Darkfaller
Siege · Year 9
The castle storming and fall was accomplished in Marshal Arcane (Book 15); Mycin Amana's expulsion from Isily's body followed in Preceptor (Book 16).
