Winterhaven is a village in north-eastern Karrnath . [1]
Geography
It sits on the southwest edge of the Icetop Mountains , roughly 200 miles (320,000 meters) west of the Ironroot Mountains . [1]
History
During the Age of Demons , the demon Orcus created a rift to Mabar in the area that would eventually be the site of Winterhaven. However, like many other demons, Orcus was sealed in Khyber by the couatl and dragons and the rift was sealed. [1]
Several millennia later, during the reign of Karrn the Conqueror , the rift was almost opened by an exarch of Orcus known as Doresain . It was only thanks to the actions of Sir Keegan and the paladins of Dol Dorn that this was able to be stopped, with Doresain himself being bound in Mabar along with the army he had hoped to raise. It was around this time that a keep was constructed and guarded by Keegan and his knights. However, Doresain would still be able to reach Keegan from beyond the rift and managed to possess the paladin and force him to kill his entire family before Keegan was able to regain control of his mind. [1]
Description
By the end of the Last War , after the signing of the Treaty of Thronehold , Winterhaven itself is thought to be a remote and isolated city. As such, whilst it still maintains a Karrnathi garrison, and even houses siege equipment, its lord neglects to enforce the military training necessary to maintain a ready militia against the mandatory laws of Karrnath, leaving the town almost defenseless.
