CURSE
DAY
Curse Day is the anniversary of the death of Lord Dimwit Flathead the
Excessive on the 14th of Mumberbur. On that date in 789 GUE the
great wizard Megaboz cast a mighty Curse that one on the 94th
anniversary of that day the Empire would collapse. The first part of
the Curse saw, on that day, the deaths of the Twelve Flatheads. By 882,
historians dismissed this as a silly schoolyard legend, but they were
mistaken. The Curse Day of 883 GUE, brought about the collapse of the
Empire and the destruction of Flatheadia. This day marks the last
day of the reign of Wurb Flathead, and the beginning of the influence
of the first Dungeon Master.
