So... 1909 in- the earth I've heard about here.
Though the calendar in my world puts it as 2109.
Everything seemed to be okay.
There were wars around the world, sure- but at the time I was in my homeland of Anglia.
And for once in my life, not serving in a war.
Winter rolled around- and it seemed pretty heavy.
But- winter stayed around.
And it stayed heavy for a lot of it. Blizzards happened every week, all across Europe I heard. And it got pretty bad.
1.5 imperial gallons of tea were consumed during the writing of this post-nods- Well- I only learnt about that lately. At the time, and- basically forever, we all assumed it was a natural disaster. But- It was done through his magic.
It hit hard- infrastructure was down, logistics torn up.
People were rioting- and there was blood spilled. Society... collapsed.
It was called the Red Winter, because of that. Plenty died from the cold, but- there was often moments where you couldn't walk down the street without seeing- well- red snow. Either from a recent fight, or the day before.
Sometimes the governments couldn't even clear the corpses out the street.
Sometimes the snow covered them up- because the blizzards were consistent- over that entire Winter... which led into 1910's Winter, and only finally ended in 1911.
We had Winter for an entire year- food was a problem too.

Yeah- he's that powerful. Self-taught it'd seem. I had no idea he existed until I found out about it here.
Before then- we thought it was a natural disaster. A miniature ice-age.
As for what he has to gain... I've heard that he didn't like the current order of the day, in terms of governments.
He supposedly joined the Anglian Parliament for a single day, and resigned on that day.
So- by creating something to destroy the government, and all the governments nearby- he could therefore create something out of the ashes, presumably.
