Battle of the Susserlin River

The Battle of the Susserlin River was the last battle of the Second Elven War between the Turamzzyrian Empire and the House of Nalfein.

The battle occurred on elven territory in the year 4771, M.E.. The Imperial Army, while victorious to this point, had been lead by the Emperor Rallick Anodheles. A brave and successful general, Rallick had lead the army from victory to victory until his death from an arrow wound shortly before the Battle of the Susserlin River. In his place, a high priest of the Church of Koar, Prelate Fzendoor, took command. The prelate was no tactician and lead the Imperial Army into a trap, where it was annihilated by a combined Nalfein army.

The defeat effectively ended the war for the human empire, and secured the borders of the Nalfein nation for centuries to come.
