House Udaku arrives in the country that would later be dubbed Halruaal from the east. Two Galleons made landfall in what center island (the Heartland region) after successfully navigating the inner sea.
After nearly a year at sea, the foundations of House Udaku arrived at the edge of Halruaal on four ships: the Manthatisi; the Maxeke; the Modjadji; and the Mendi. Their journey was not an easy one, and trouble soon occurred when the four ships sailed into the inner seas of Halruaal.
They were beset by a host of creatures from the depths of the sea. Surging up from below all manner of dangerous beast - sahuagin, sea drakes, and water elementals - attack the four ships. In a battle that lasted several days, two ships (the Mendi, and the Maxeke) were lost with nearly all hands aboard lost to the hunger of the terrible monsters.
When the survivors of the journey spotted land, supplies were dwindling to the point of non existence. The captains of the Manthatisi and the Modjadji made the decision to weigh anchor off the southern coast of the Heartlands. Though they desired to resupply on this landmass, the hope was that this could be a new world that would lead to a new era of prosperity and peace.
A third of the survivors were proficient wizards who had foreseen the collapse of their country. Specializing in enchantment magic, they had persuaded the remaining non-wizards to leave with them in search for a new land. As such, they assumed a natural leadership role among the voyagers and decided to lead the first landfall.
The champion of these wizards was Terrac'oko Udaku, a Enchantment wizard in possession of a unique skill. With a collection of twenty men and women, he led the first party to the southern reaches of the island. They established a base camp which soon grew into the settlement now known as Lunos.
