Our random events for this age are as follows:
It is an age of storms! Massive rainfalls cause great difficulties for our people, particularly as we have not developed very strong architecture and what few well-constructed buildings we possess begin to wither from constant wear and tear; roofs collapse, walls erode due to primitive construction methods and a lack of water-proof cement. Rivers flood, previously easily-traveled paths become dangerous, and fishermen suddenly find themselves in a very dangerous position as they attempt to carry out their trade. Fishing traps and woven nets are swept away, and sometimes the fishermen go with them. Food becomes very difficult to grow as farmlands are flooded, seeds washed away and plants drowned. Lightning storms become a near-constant, and just when the damage from one storm is nearly dealt with another occurs. The people flood the village centers during these storms, seeking shelter and guidance, but this over-crowding causes further damage, as these places were not built to accommodate so many people.
The seers divine no end in sight for these storms; they are only going to persist and get worse before things get better, if they ever do at all. Panic and despair grips the people as they fear they are witnessing the end of the world. They turn to the Rex and the naga for leadership and guidance, but the red serpent possesses no magic that can banish these storms. The Rex attempts to lead the people through this crisis as best he can, but things simply do not go well. The dragons of the royal family do what they can, keeping fires lit with their fiery breaths, but even they are brought to low spirits by these storms. Not even the snake temple to the north in the swamps can offer any shelter, for it too is nearly completely flooded.
