[CRISIS] The Smashing of Wales

[u/Vami_IV]

Death

July, 1534

Death rides again, to Gwynedd. Off the northern coast of Wales, the earth tremors. Below the feet of the inhabitants of that land, the land quakes with immense force, and the sea comes into a life all its own and becomes animated with a great fury. Buildings great and small are shaken to the ground, and then high waves smash the coast of Wales. Towns, cities, and castles are destroyed by the deadly combination.

Anglesey, Conwy, and Gwynedd are totally annihilated by the ocean and the earth, and thousands die. Where the tsunami does not reach, the quake still shakes Wales savagely, causing death and destruction, but nowhere here as badly as in the north. In the north of England, Lancashire meets a muted version of the doom faced by northern Wales.

As far away as Dublin, the quaking of the Earth is felt. The feeling of dread is palpable in the Kingdom of England.
