End of June, 9169 – The Sound…
On this moment, towards sun-down, there was a terrible sound that cut across the entire countryside of south western Bar-Innis and beyond. It sounded like the tearing of metal, twice… thrice… and once more. A low rumbling followed, and a deep vibration was felt in the earth. Everywhere birds took to flight, and animals bellowed and hid. After 10 minutes or so, just as a calm once more returned, the air was cut again by a similar sound. This time it was clear as a bestial scream – one long one that made the teeth of everything alive vibrate and chatter. Water surfaces rippled, fish jumped, birds scattered again, and animals went wild – domesticated ones even attacking anything between them and a hiding space. The sounds echoed throughout the Pranin Moorswood, Wonald Delta, the southern edge of Dwindor Swamp and the Black Shore, and the western half of the Barony of Crestwold.
Several days later, a lot of dead fish will wash up on the shores of Sabin Bay and the Wonald Delta. For a few days, off the Hoolip Coast, dead fish float in the water.
