On Februarius the 2nd, 354 SC, the temperature of [[Lithmore]] abruptly
warmed to tropical levels as a massive rainstorm developed over the city.
The combination of snowmelt and torrential rain resulted in an extreme
flash flood that filled the entire city with 10-15 feet of standing water.
Unprepared, many people died in the deluge; the overall death rate was
approximately 75% - as high as 90% in the [[Southside]] where no two-story
buildings existed to take shelter in.

The flood was clearly magical in nature, and only abated when various
individuals found and destroyed summoning circles in various locations
throughout Lithmore protected by demons. In a final showdown, the archmage
responsible for the flood was killed and the floodwaters at last began to
abate.

In the wake of the Flood, massive efforts were undertaken to burn the
corpses and return the city to a sense of normalcy. Huge charitable
donations by the Order, Throne, and individual persons restored much of the
city, although the scars of the Flood are still visible in some of the
landmarks that survived the waters.
