Lindon also built a keep, though with the purpose of guarding the river against monsters.

	~~Lindon, as~~ a paladin of Yondalla, initially tried to mediate between his companions and try to find some common ground by which they could rule jointly. However, he was killed in 2299 when a flash flood overtook his fortress of Rivergarde Keep and he was swept from the ramparts into the river. Meerain and Borak both blamed the druid, Keldan, for the flash flood; from that point on, it became clear that none would rest until the others were dead. Borak died in 2307 when he was caught out in the open by Meerain's gryphon riders, leaving Meerain and Keldan to wage war for the next nine years, ultimately meeting each other in a mighty clash of armies in 2318. It is unclear which side conjured the magical whirlwind (though most scholars suggest the druid Keldan was most likely the culprit), but it somehow got beyond the control of its caster; when the storm finally abated, both armies had been utterly destroyed and both Meerain and Keldan were dead.
