Seasonal Calendar
3rd of Searing (Prompt) - There is an explosion in the airfield, and an experimental ship falls from the sky in a wave of flame. No injuries are reported.
10th of Searing - The Kathar Legion participates in a large-scale bust of a series of restaurants tied to the Kamino family. Several dozen people are arrested and imprisoned for extortion, but Head Kamino is never found.
28th of Searing (Event) - An open festival is held in Rosenholz Park for the newly graduated students of Valtrois School of Fine Arts. It is an all-day event, and various stages and stands are set up around the park showcasing students' works of art and performances. Rumor has it the Emperor's first aid would be attending as well.
34th of Searing (Event) - At 11:25am a Category 3 Miststorm is sighted traveling fast toward the city. The sirens go off around Gel'Grandal shortly after the sighting. The barrier around the city goes up as a great dome, originating from pillars set at intervals around Northside, and pillars disguised as statues and works of art around Southside. The worst of the storm is diverted, but a category 2 level residual thread still funnels into the city proper through the barrier. During the storm, magical devices function abnormally, and those of Apprentice level and below stop working entirely when exposed to the mist. Breaches in the barrier allow for category 3 veils of mist to flow in at certain areas along the east side of the city, but most of the worst of the effects are pulled toward the Gash.
Activity in the Gash suddenly spikes with the storm. The creatures from the depths grow bolder, surging upward in waves not usually seen. The mists seem to feed them and give them greater strength, and the Imperial Legion is sent out to deal with the threat. The Kathar arrive in force at approximately 11:34am, and other knight chapters soon follow, beating back the tides that try to overwhelm the city.
Those who live on Southside are provided bunkers near their homes (Either private or public) that they can evacuate into in the event of a miststorm. Northside has roughly 2 dozen bunkers spread across the city, all public and controlled by one gang or another. Citizens of Northside have 3 choices: Find shelter in a basement or somewhere else sealed off from the mist, head to a shelter and try to bargain their way in, or simply let the mist do its work.
37th of Searing - The worst of the storm is passed, but Category 1 mists still fill the city, and magic is still having difficulties functioning. The battle continues at the Gash, but the monsters are losing their strength and the Magic Knights are taking ground one inch at a time. Citizens of the city who have taken shelter are slowly being escorted out and back to their homes on the Southside as the city begins to try and get back to its normal operations.
41st of Searing - An Imperial broadcast goes out over the airways with a speech from the Emperor praising the Legion and its Knights for its bravery against the threat. Honors are given to 3 knights in particular. Knight-Commander Leon from the Silver Wing Chapter, Knight-Lieutenant Yan from the Blue Dragon Chapter, and Knight-Lieutenant Maria from the Blue Dragon Chapter. These three received honor and distinction for their bravery, and both Yan and Maria received promotions to Knight-Captain as well.
The damage from the storm was minimal, with the majority of the effects isolated to the east edge of Gel'Grandal. Northside had several of its buildings collapsed, and it was estimated about 300 died. Heavier losses came from the Legion who lost 800 of their knights, 500 of which were Kathar.
42nd of Searing - Knights both Kathar and otherwise are dispatched in number in every direction from the city. The official report is that these knights are on humanitarian missions to give aid to nearby towns and villages less protected, but those in positions that interact with the Inquisition know the truth. On the night of the 34th, the collars of many Kathar malfunctioned. While most kept to their duties regardless, but many sought to flee in the ensuing chaos. Most were slaughtered by their brothers, but 20 managed to escape in different directions. It was thought the missing Kathar died in the battle, but when no bodies were found after 6 days the truth was realized and a manhunt was initiated.
