The Briga Campaign

The Briga Campaign was the Naidiri push by Hedonic I, beginning in 2107, into Korsek along the Briga River. The target was Jenthal and the surrounding Erbeth Plains and fertile Briga Delta in the west, from which Naidiri forces moved east across the river to take Caimen Xyr in 2108 and Umarak in 2110.

The Briga Campaign ended in 2111 with the second assault on Saddogherin, and the city’s fall. The first assault was disastrous for the Naidiri due to the magical Storm Stone the inhabitants use to draw rain from Lake Sallom, which, the Naidiri discovered, could be used to create devastating Dostrom activity. The second assault was the first battle the Academy was part of (and they were only reason Naidir succeeded), and the use of portals opened into the city, military persistence, and dominashiks formed the framework of the siege.

Controlling the northern (and fertile) half of Korsek, Naidiri forces then focused on the southernmost bastion of Sadhayall.
