The Battle of Trialmount was the final event of the War of the Sorcerer-King. While the war itself stopped a few months prior, Nichmer, the Sorcerer-King had survived and fled to the top of Trialmount. It was here where the Trialmount Company, the greatest warriors of the League of Free Realms, which were selected during the Tourney of Grand Victory set weeks before, climbed the mountain to confront (undertaking the forbidden trials of castan on the way) and kill the Sorcerer-King. While the Sorcerer-King did die, much of Trialmount was destroyed and many trials were lost - invalidating the Trials of Castan.
