King Aerveas's army invaded Bastan during his match with the Ahura. I was here when it happened, in the Undertow. [being a shomer for a girl he killed...]

A few paladins who were at the tournament are getting a group together to take it back. [or that's the impression he's gotten from watching them, at least] The Ahura is helping them.

Probably I will too, but we don't know yet what will happen.
