This autumn, a plague emerged from the Northern Continent of Ferun and swept across the entire realm.
Silvermoon City and Baldur's Gate could not possibly avoid it either.
Although many understood why the contagion spread so quickly, no one told the common folk that perhaps they might be safe if they avoided handling money.
Instead, many nobles began to buy up food supplies at high prices, making the unknowing farmers and fishermen give up their possessions and lives.
Neverwinter, which had traded with Hill, managed to preserve most of its population during this widespread plague in the North due to the war preparations made with Luskan.
The Royal Family of Neverwinter indeed lived up to their reputation for kindness and capability, although some gold and silver jewelry still ended up in the hands of residents, most of the abundant wealth they brought back was stored in sealed warehouses.
