1357 DR Eleasis 10 - Red Wizard Thamarrak led a small band of adventurers to the city of Anhaurz, located near the Keep of Sorrows at the bottom of the escarpment, to help drive away any salamanders and maintain its strategic position. With the help of the remaining Lapendrar legionnaires, temple priest, and using the Red Wizard's circle magic, the waves of salamanders were repelled and allowed the Keep of Sorrows and Anhaurz to breathe a sigh of relief for the time being. The adventurers that helped the Red Wizard were: Cullen Mard Jorino, Daeris, Etheniss Oussval, Red Wizard Itheszil, Max Glorificus, Mork Menthenthen, Rhab Blood Axe, and Ruby.
1357 DR Eleasis 13 - Djarna J'harzel, third daugher of House J'harzel who hates beholders and illithids, hired a group to escort her to the abandoned beholder tunnels where she would perform the ritual to close the rift/thinning. Her brother Sanko, her normal escort, was not available as he had been called away to work by the second daughter Phareda. The group took care of many salamanders along the way and at the site. The group consisted of Merem, Walwen, Ardul'kiira, Szlyn Zolond, and Etheniss Oussval. The ritual to close the thinning/rift was successful. However, Djarna was pulled into the rift right before it closed by a giant fiery salamander hand. The group reported the outcome to Ryzza, the (likely) former fourth daughter, now third.
1357 DR Eleasis 18 - The Zulkir council meets and discusses current affairs. Szass Tam directs his Legion of Myrkul to head south to attack the salamander army. Zulkirs Maligor and Lauzoril donate gnolls and golems to the cause as well. The council elects Aznar Thrul as the new Tharchion of Bezantur to replace the missing Mari Agneh. The mysterious Chairmaster tallies the votes of the school of conjuration and Sabass of Thay becomes the new Zulkir of Conjuration.
1357 DR Eleint 6 - Red Wizards Gombdalla of Pyarados and Tola Vrass send out two spies to infiltrate the mind of a captured salamander through entering the salamanders dream - in hope to chart their plans and next move. The spies were Deacon Flamestryke and Red Galambos.
1357 DR Eleint 9 - A ceremony was held to honor House J'harzel's efforts with the closing of the rift. Attendees included Ardul'Kiira, Szlyn Zolond, and Walwen. House J'harzel attendees included eldest daughter Zallya, second daughter Phareda, now third daughter Ryzza and one of the sons, Sanko.
1357 DR Eleint 19 - The salamanders attack Thay yet again. However, the Red Wizards had learned where they would attack next, so they were prepared against the supposed to be surprise attack. Red Wizard Cecil hired adventurers and sellswords to help the Laprendar legion to defend the large town south of lake Umber in western Thay. The legion was prepared for an attack from the south, but it appeared the salamanders yet again strike from below and through portals. The hired group went below the town, to the burrows, where they found a fiery portal, which they managed to seal for the timebeing - until the Red Wizards destroy it completely. The group that answered Red Wizard Cecil's call to arms at Nethjet were Apprentice Atara Sethrakt, Codi, Cullen Mard Jorino, Kallie Palmstriker, Max Glorificus, Phoenix, Shara Meynolt and Walwen.
1357 DR Marpenoth 11 - Master Sergeant Ayloud of the Alaor Legion gathered a group of adventurers after hearing about a rise in temperature emanating out of the Heart of the Isle. The group fought through numerous salamanders that seemed to have overtaken the volcano. Entering the lower floor they were met with a wave of salamanders attacking the remaining residents, and it was revealed that a portal was created within to send salamander reinforcements into the mainland. The group was able to defeat the reinforcements and close the portal. While salamanders (and other fiery creatures) will still call the volcano home the portal's removal ensures much less casualties in the long run during the war. The adventurers that assisted Master Sergeant Ayloud were: Apprentice Atara Sethrakt, Codi, Red Wizard Itheszil, Daeron Markos Mediocros, Shara Meynolt, and Tyrone Tradewinds.
