==== Second Battle of Jordur ====
Six years later in 307 AR, Breoa launched another massive invasion. Seven-thousand troops and an additional two-thousand raiders surged toward Jordur. The coalition prepared for a siege. However, they knew that the Saints and Brekendahl himself would be joining the fray. The three cities sent out a cry for help across the Rings. Adventurers and heroes arrived in the hundreds to aid the coalition in its darkest hour. Yet, many believed that it would not be enough. The day of battle arrived. With a divine ease, the Saints brought down the walls of Jordur allowing the Breoan army to charge inside the funnel. Despite the best efforts of the defenders, the Queen of Jordur, Kerrian the Rose Warrior (named after her iconic rose patterned greatshield), ordered a retreat into the city. Fighting was fierce, filled with heroic efforts and last stands. Yet, as the sun began to fall, so did the city.

It was in that moment, during the twilight, when some Breoan soldiers noticed the dead begin to rise. Jordur had sent out a secret order during the call. Any necromancers who answered Jordur’s cry for help would be given sanctuary and protection within Jordur’s walls. Kerrian had orderedthose that answered to wait until sunset. Now, thousands of undead blocked the escape of the Breoan soldiers.

[[Brekendah]]<nowiki/>l and his Saints moved to help the army but were blocked as portals began to open around them. Devils poured through, surrounding the Saints and Brekendahl. Pakra too had given a secret order. The King had his clerics contact the devils of hell. He had signed a contract saying that in exchange for the help of the devils, henceforth the devils could walk freely, in peace, throughout Pakra and make deals as they pleased. The devils quickly accepted. Then, during the perfect moment, launched into the battle.

In the end, the critical moment came when an exhausted [[Brekendahl]] fought Queen Kerrian in the breach. The soldiers watched as the two traded blows. Sensing victory, [[Brekendahl]] plunged his axe into Kerrian’s neck and then her heart. However, this was part of Kerrian’s plan. It left her an opening to plunge her longsword into Brekendahl’s eye. The god screamed in agony as Kerrian died. Devils, undead, and heroes attacked the wounded god. It was in that moment that [[Brekendahl]] was forced to retreat as his Saints pulled him from the fray and the Breoan army broke. Fourteen thousand lost their lives during the second battle of Jordur.

After the battle, the necromancers gathered around the body of Kerrian. They performed their vile magic and raised the Queen as a Death Knight. As her skin became a slate gray, Kerrian was given a new name, the Twilight Rose.
