Dialogue[]
“ | The <Player Clan>, augmented by a stout force of Berenethtelli allies, waited until the end of Sacred Time. This is when they knew their fortress would fall. The clan gathered all of its magic. Every member, strong or infirm, old or young, picked up a weapon and waited for the onslaught. The friends of the <Player Clan> raised sword and bow and said, “If we are to die, it is best that we do it here.”

Consequences[]
After the first paragraph, the event image changes to the one at right, once the Chaos army arrives. While you've lost the game no matter what, there are two variants, one worse than the other.
“ | Valiantly the defenders battled, slaying four of the foe for every fallen <ourClan>. As they perished, they knew they had taken many enemies with them—perhaps enough to allow others to save the world. | ” |
— "Good" branch |
“ | More foes came than any of the defenders expected. They were soon overwhelmed, and erased from the face of the world. When Glorantha was finally consumed, <number> years later, the guardians of Berenstead were already forgotten. | ” |
— "Bad" branch |
Notes[]
The event text varies a bit depending on which Chaos foe King Vinglanth died fighting—your special enemy will always be listed last and given the most narrative weight.
While this event can only happen if all three possible kings are dead, they still have scripted advice.
