In time immemorial, reportedly some time during the early 2nd century Lake Arkona began to boil, and released a thick toxic cloud from beneath its waters which was isolated to the area around Fiffev Fle Kez, which was swallowed by the fumes for several days. Fiffev Fle Kez lost 283 people, 209 livestock, and 54 buildings in the disaster, though it is of note the local plant life flourished after the disaster. The disaster is referred to as the Doom Wind.
