Battle of the Gareg Mountains

The Battle of the Gareg Mountains was a large battle in a mountain pass connecting Nartelon and Averbay that Nartelon attempted to use to invade the Averbain County of Cortshire during the Averbain Civil War.

The battle was feirce, seeing thousands die in the frigid temperatures of the Gareg Mountains. Duke Hugh d'Irloi was killed, and Count Aendalor was injured. The Nartelon Army was forced to retreat, seeing their plans for their invasion of Cortshire in tatters.

Due to the extreme coldness apparent at that time of year, the victors were forced to leave the bodies to rot in the mountain pass. This would inevitably attract a dragon, who would make its home in Rulud Cave, a tunnel that is part of the pass.
