Battle of McGillicuddy's Farm

On the thirteenth day of Fall, 46 AD, Goblyns from the Dark Woods launched a successful raid of a particular rich harvest. A diversionary force was sent towards Enonia while the remainder of the goblins plundered the grain stores and livestock to be carried back to their dens. Unfortunately for Enonia, Marshal Henrick Roehm was killed in the Battle at McGillicuddy’s Farm, where Enonian forces responding to the attack encountered the diversionary force.

The knights were virtually wiped out, with only a couple of nobles surviving, and the cavalry was lost as an effective unit. The Town Guard and Keep footmen, losing their nerve at so many of their fellows dying, as well as shock over their Marshal’s death, fled the battle alongside the archers. The goblins never attacked the city itself, but the loss of grain and cattle caused a great deal of privation in the ensuing harsh winter. Victor, Henrick’s eldest son, assumed the title of Marshal, but it is widely believed that he has never gotten over the death of his father.
