History of the Crusade was a book written by the bard Thom Reaverson in the early 1360s DR. It gave a careful and unbiased account of King Azoun IV's crusade against the Tuigan Horde in the Year of the Turret, 1360 DR.[2]
History[]
Following the war, Thom Reaverson wrote History of the Crusade while in Suzail, Cormyr, at the king's request. At the time, he provided translations and guidance for Koja of Khazari, who was a guest of Azoun in Suzail for over a year and who, also at the king's request, wrote up an account of his experiences with the Tuigan. Koja felt History of the Crusade was a more complete account of the war than his own.[3][note 1]
Locations[]
One copy was in the possession of King Azoun IV of Cormyr in the early 1360s DR.[3] By 1362 DR, the temple of Deneir in the city of Procampur in the Vast had a copy, bound together with Koja's Life among the Tuigan.[4]
Appendix[]
Notes[]
- ↑ As Thom and Koja worked together in Suzail, and the two books are bound together, it seems likely that Thom also wrote History of the Crusade for King Azoun.
Background[]
History of the Crusade, Life among the Tuigan, and A Discovery of the World are purported to be the basis of research for the Horde Campaign sourcebook.
