Editing The Alrennean War (section)

== Into Akhentour ==
In the winter of 4059 VR, Alrenn's hordes crossed the [[Fangs]] into Akhentour, reaching [[Kavonne]] by summer of 4060 VR. Alrenn completely skipped over the mining town of Urster, likely due to the pact he had made with the atropal deep within the mines itself.

Alrenn's downfall in Akhentour came in two forms: first, his two-year hiatus from crossing meant that Akhentour had time to bolster its defenses in various ways, mostly through magical wards and mages trained in countering spells. Second, shortly after crossing, Alrenn split his hordes into three forces: the First Horde to siege Kavonne, the Second Horde to press into [[Diomedes]] to take [[Diomed]], and the Third Horde to travel south through the eastern hills to eventually take Garrod. While Alrenn's hordes were large, the command of these separate armies faltered at several key points, creating weaknesses that the armies of Akhentour sprang upon. Particularly, the Third Horde was weak against the [[Dwarf|dwarves]], who had emerged from the [[Underdark]] to aid in fighting, and the [[orc]] tribes of the southeast, who proved to be strong and resilient.
