It wasn't destroyed - just badly beat up. It had recovered somewhat by the time of Rich Baker's "Forsaken House" novel, but was still weak.

The only date I can find id 1372 DR a year after the Evermeet attack. Not sure this is canon though. |

Yes I did see this stated as well. When does one decide a realm or city is distroried? There are scattered cities about that are barely inhabititble these days. |

Well, when all of the people are dead or fled, and/or the place is heyond hope of recovery, that's a good qualifier.
Evereska came close to being destroyed, but just in the nick of time, the defenders managed to throw back the attacking phaerimm. It'll be a while before it's a happy refuge again, but it wasn't destroyed. |

| It's a mess and will be decades before the city recovers. |

The Player's Guide to Faerun has this information. The events that led to Evereska being so badly damaged began in Nightal 1371 and lasted until Eleasias 1372. |

Master SirUrza (and new folk to the 'Keep),
To update this scroll with the most recent information compiled, I've included a URL:
https://forgottenrealms.fandom.com/wiki/Evereska
Best regards,

Those 2 novel series aside, what other tombs (novel or accessory) hold vast quantities of knowledge regarding Evereska?
PS.. I'll even take websites if there's anything completely devoted to Evereska.
