Burning of the Rift

Overview
The Burning of the Rift was an event that took place shortly after the first, High-Elven attack on the Capital City of Yah'Jube. when the many factions of the Kingdom were fleeing, Heartland Elves had begun to make their way to the Forests of the Heartland from whence they came, when a pursuing group of radical Elves took it upon themselves to follow and destroy any wood Elf survivors. Just east of the Keepers Coast, the Heartland factions tried to hold off the attack but were unable to defend against the High Elves magic and tactical prowess, finding themselves engulfed in a sea of flames. The fire raged for weeks, spreading over almost a third of the forest and finally ending just short of the Heartland Forest Kingdoms.
