Death of General Matick of Netheril.
Mathick was a ruthless man with a violent streak as long as a dragon's tail. He joined the ranks of Seventon's army and began a rapid climb to the top (sometimes through the attrition of his superiors). During his life he thwarted over 30 minor goblin assaults, and his successes were legendary even during his own life. The ratio of Netherese losses in relation to enemy kills were the lowest of any general in the nation's history.
Matick was believed to have slaughtered over 25,000 orcs, 35,000 goblins, 2,000 trolls, and about 5,000 halflins and elves (whom he hated feverishly). The general was also said to have been responsible for the creation of three spells that eventually become armor, magic missile, and shield, but sages believe he actually had these spells commissioned. »
