The Fall of the North was a bulletin written by Robin Drake shortly after the falling of northern Oren to the Undead in Aegis.
((Original post))
Sons and Daughters of Horen, the day we had dread has fallen upon us, Oren is all but overcome by the undead taint, our capital reeks of death, miasma polluting the lungs of those foolish enough to approach it. The Northern plains, once a beautiful place of crisp white snow is now stained by the blood of those who gave their lives to defend the borders of Oren, of Aegis from the undead horde. Many of different racial background and beliefs sought to attack Oren, believing that they were not fit to defend the North. They meant to do good but in the end, the losses sustained by these assaults weakened the Oren military to such an extent that the undead seized the opportunity that they had been waiting for.
They bypassed the outlying towns, their hammer falling on the capital. The defenses were overrun, the city was decimated, King Enor kidnapped and many lay dead. Portals to the nether rose within Alk'hazar and a poisonous miasma started to seep forth, whithering all life around the city. In the aftermath many fled to the remaining settlements under Orens dominion, Winterfell, Galahar and New Alstion receiving many refugees. Those who had given up hope in Oren fled to Alras, it's huge walls of stone bringing comfort to those who had narrowly escaped death.
There was little time to rest and regroup, the undead saw the weakness in Oren, how it's defenses lay scattered, weak and ill manned. Within days New Alstion, Crimson Vale and Celestine lay in ruins, undead creatures residing within the streets of these once fair towns. Winterfell was next, it's fortifications not suited to fending off an undead assault soon fell. Homes destroyed, ground tainted and many either dead missing or worse. Large undead monuments where erected on the gates and on the keep to show their domination of the north and rightly so, for it was the one town which has stood firm since the undead first plagued Aegis. With it's falling, the North had truly fallen.
