The Arctic Altercation was a battle fought in the wilds of Amusa just west of Xender City, and simultaneously in the wilds of Levinkan just southwest of Zobeck. It was a battle to stop The Arctic Autumn once and for all, by killing the mage responsible.
The final hit done on the Paladin to win the war was done by a lone Kobold.

The Battle Plan
The team spent months during the Arctic Autumn convincing allies and other forces to come join them. Some came from far away such as the Storm Giant of Pteris. The plan was organized by the characters working out of Galik and also by the Players who coordinated in a massive shared document, working into the early hours of morning to finalize a plan.
The final plan was broken into two teams: One would attack the Paladin and stab him with The Sorcyst Blade to teleport him to a secondary destination in Amusa where an ambush was ready to take him down.

Behind the Screen
- The name Arctic Altercation is a tongue-in-cheek reference to the campaign the battle was fought in, known as Ancients Alive. Internal notes have the battle listed as "AAAA" which coincidentally is the sound most players made as they fought in it.
