Most scholars set the date of the beginning of the Undead War on the twenty-seventh of Stability in the year 1127. The truth of the matter is more complex.
That date was when the Undead King marched into Death’s Doorstep with an army, but the tensions between Xarinos and Death’s Doorstep had been building for years, if not decades. The Undead King’s attack, while unprecedented, wasn’t completely unexpected.
Which did nothing to offset the impact of the high death toll or the wanton destruction that the undead left in their wake. Mysandrika had always been wary of the Undead King, but after that attack, we were terrified.
The creation of the garrison at Final Hope was the inevitable consequence of the Undead War, and the only thing preventing the Undead King from marching again.
