The Searing

The Searing is the name given to the event in which giant burning crystals brought about by powerful Charr magic landed on the beautiful land of Ascalon and turned it into a barren land. It was thanks to this event that the Charr were able to overcome the Great Northern Wall and march through Ascalon to Kryta and Orr. The rammifications of the Searing and the following invasion forever changed these three kingdoms.
