History

Raided by the Orcs immediately before the The Fall of Alluria.

After her fall, the Orcs returned to pillage again. in his despair, Alluria's captain Galathi sent everyone from the city and prepared for the assault. Standing atop its walls by himself and defying the assembled Orcish forces, he defies and insulted them, causing the Orcish forces to break ranks and charge the city. At the last moment, Galathi unleashed magic and rent the earth, creating the huge gash known as Shadowcrag. Most of the city, many of the orcish forces, and Galathi himself plunged into the chasm to their death.

The remnants of the city, both within and outside of the chasm, are twisted and unnatural due to the despair of Galathi required to unleash his final spell.
