No wonder Zacris believed they needed to be exterminated. Anyway...A khannate of gnollish raiders from a nearby savannah had taking to raiding the newest frontier agricultural province, which had willingly joined, seeking the safety against monsters rumored to be provided by aligning with Empire. Lacking effective natural defenses against the gnolls, it was hoped that the Empire's army could prevent the assaults, perhaps adding fortifications.Inquisitor Zacris was sent to put an end to the gnollish blight on the newly acquired province. Arriving in the dry season, Zacris utilized the portals in his walking tower to summon the 31st Phoenix Brigade, the Emperor's Elite Fire Sorcerers. In a night known as Zacris' Pyre, he used a ritual to set a raging wildfire across not only the savannah, but the newly acquired province, and it's pathetically indefensible populace. The province was thereafter renamed Grainburn, and loyal settlers from all over Capria flocked to it under a cheap land grant program, to take advantage of it's rich black soil. To this day, Grainburn Province is the breadbasket of the Western Extents, and it's people build only with expensive imported stone (alchemically treated against fire, heat, and the angry souls of the dead).</blockquote>
