Is this passage worded and structured correctly?

Harvests were failing, travel and trade were disrupted, and civilized forces were giving way to the deluges caused by the storms. In panic and despair, many began to turn to the evil goddess Umberlee, Queen of the Depths, offering her sacrifices in the hope that they would be spared the inevitable reckoning of the perpetual tempest, which had become known as the Great Rain.
