The Battle of Ayn Tayan was a titanic three-day battle between undead and Shadow.<ref name="Aerfalle's Letter"> 2000/07 - [[To Raise a Banner of Flame]] - [[Aerfalle's Letter]]</ref> The location is known as the [[Battlefield of Ayn Tayan]] or Hill of Pines.

The undead side included [[Kelannik]], [[Jaera]], the [[Sand Kings]] [[Nerash]] and [[Anadil]], and also [[Aerfalle]] and [[Geraine]] from the Dericost faction [[Filinuvekta]]. <ref name="Aerfalle's Letter"/>

On the Shadows side was Bael'Zharon and the Haebran warrior [[Leikotha Arenir]] who sided with the Shadows "under the sway of [[Ferah]]'s poison whispers" and seeking revenge for being turned undead by Nerash. <ref name="Aerfalle's Letter"/>

[[Nerash]] was slain by [[Leikotha]] during the battle. The [[Media:Battlefield of Ayn Tayan 3 Live.jpg|four cairns and the green mist]] on the battlefield mark where Nerash was killed.<ref name="Aerfalle's Letter"/> Lady [[Jaera]] also fought beside Nerash at the end but was killed by [[Bael'Zharon]] himself. Though [[Nerash]] perished, the companies of [[Kelannik]], [[Anadil]], and [[Nerash]] crushed the survivors. Only Leikotha escaped.<ref name="Aerfalle's Letter"/> She however, lost her sword, [[Ashbane]], on the battlefield.<ref>2000/04 - [[Thorns of the Hopeslayer]] - [[Leikotha#Lore & Dialog]]</ref>

Leikotha can now be found in her [[Leikotha's Crypt|crypt]], still looking for a way to get rid of the curse. The human [[Wari al Sha'im]] tried to help her, but was turned into an undead himself.<ref>2000/04 - [[Thorns of the Hopeslayer]] - [[Silifi of Crimson Stars Quest#Lore & Dialog]]</ref> Her sword can be found in the [[Lady of Aerlinthe's Chest]], which indicates that [[Aerfalle]] took it with her from the battlefield.

Kelannik survived the battle, and retreated to the desert, where decay slowly set in.<ref name="Rytheran's Letter"> 1999/12 - [[Sudden Season]] - [[Rytheran's Letter]]</ref> He can now be found as a [[Lord Kelannik|skeleton]] inside the [[Burial Temple]] behind a lever activated door. <ref> 2004/09 - [[A Small Victory]] - [[The Mage Academy]]</ref>

[[Lady Jaera's Tomb]] is found in the [[Mage Academy]].
