Damn their god, Abaddon." - Barnabas of Fort Pont* *** The Seven Days of Sorrow were so named by the citizens of [[Rivier Astor]] after a week long campaign taking part in the hay fields east of the [[Commonwealth of Paignia]], just before making their way to the city of [[Helsdon]]. In the month of Midwinter, on the eighth day, Earthsday, in the year 1351, the city of [[Odurne]], freshly out of the events of the [[Upheaval]], sent a message of prowess to the capital city of Helsdon. Three [[Draught Knights]], crazed and scarred from the events taking place in their city shortly before transplanting itself in the plane of Erebus, were sent to wreak havoc across the country side. Their names were the following: - Silan Rubir - Armaros Armail - Jeremas Khae Three Draught Knights were dispatched past the city of [[Saint Bris]], past the city of [[Pont]], all the way to [[Rivier Astor]], just mere miles away from the capital city. For seven days they scarred the tilling fields and slaughtered militia-men. Operating under false pretenses that they were in a land of demons and aggression. Inverted crosses were erected across the plains, with the farmers strung up and set ablaze as a spectacle. This was visible from the [[High Visier]] of Helsdon, where the Elected Councilmen sit, to watch haplessly as a city of 15,000 was brought to ash by three men bearing weapons of unknown origin.
