During this same year famine induced riots rocked small communities south of Drune Hall, notably resulting in a fire that destroyed the well known town of Druscan.

* 1291-present: The region of Taria, under the rule of the Solari Empire since the time of Dane, declare themselves independent, a claim not acknowledged by the Solari Empire. Warriors from all across the land were called to battle and the greatest civil war in 900 years rocked Southern Nordgārd.The fighting continued strong for six years (1297) and began to cool for two years (1299). Since then there has been a standstill, with only occasional border skirmishes, mainly because Galerius is too much of a coward to risk the bold military move that would almost assuredly wipe out the Tarian rebels.

* 1299: The city of Maxias forcefully and unexpectedly succeeds placing a large sphere of deadly prismatic protection around themselves. Galerius, for the first time in years is shocked into action and orders paladins from Bastion to go take the city back. Unfortunately this didn't work out for the paladins or the Solari Empire and Maxias remained secluded, the barrier preventing all but reasonably skilled magic users from entering.
