Biography

Early Life

Education

The third child of an Arle, SURNAME never expected to become Arle, and was instead educated and educated themself to eventually join the Order of the Watch to explore the ruins of the land and set the dead to rest.

This plan was tragically put to an end when the then-Arle was bespelled and attacked the family, severely wounded all of them, and when the Arle was finally stopped, only SURNAME was surviving by the end. They were placed under the care of a regent who was their family's highest ranked man-at-arms at the time, and given a rushed education on what being an Arle would mean.

Accomplishments & Achievements

Flachsteengroeve leaves the Capitolist Faction - While many within the faction may view this choice as a failure, SURNAME claims it to be a victory.

Magnusdotr had ignored my warnings and recommendations to win over the Uncrowned by instating some of their wishes in a way to favor her. A council of Arles who would answer to the High King would easily satisfy their desires to feel heard.
But she'd not even bothered to listen - dismissed me even.
I feel she is much like Kerlbror - an Arle who wanted to be High King and maybe gather more land under her control beyond Feroian and Capital. I cannot continue to support her endeavors, but I have hopes she will realize her flaws.

I know you are cautious of me. I would be in your shoes, but I was made very aware of how the self-confident can be blinded to their own lack of knowledge. I will work to cease the raids on Felkhath.

"However, agents from (Arle Stormwatch's) pet project have sent us evidence Flachsteengroeve gave tactical information to Enjorde in exchange for land from Stendal. The year between their leaving us could have been followed by half-hearted warring to allay suspicion."
