The above image is a copy of the missing parchment from the Hallium County Chronicle. Found in the deep cellars a nearby monastery the small section depicts a battle that took place on the a local hill that is famed for the mysterious rock that sits upon it’s summit though the symbols on the rock have yet to be deciphered. The parchment allows historians to date the monument to 304AD during the reign of King Leo I. Below you will find a translated version of the parchment which was most likely written by the County scribes.

The Chronicle of Uthred’s Hill
In the warming months of the summer the people of East Moorland had once again risen to rebel against our most glorious King Leo I. In the county Hallium a large brood of East Moorland peasants had marched upon the county’s main settlement. The count of Hallium organised a large counter attack of cavalry to disperse the oncoming hordes. However his attack was thwarted by the horde and the local knights had now been slaughtered. Instead Lord Uthred whom was a local land owner had his household guard organise into a shield wall upon the steep hill that lay on the perimeter of his estate. Using the God given advantage of the hill and the strong steadfast power of the shield wall the household troops of Uthred were able to massacre the rebellious pagans. As the enemy ranks withered the household troops stormed down the hill crying out death upon the heathens who in turn turned and scattered only to be met by the newly arrived men of the country Fryd. When the horde was finally defeated King Leo had a great stone dragged to the place where Uthreds men had fought and carved out a small passage to honour the lord.
