Fourth Rin: The Dwarven Lament

5590 11387

The Goblins lived for many long years, nurturing hate. A hate that was not their own, but rather Thorax’s. When they thought their power great enough, they issued forth from their caverns and halls in great numbers. They were bound in armor and bore weapons of iron and brass. And they made war upon the Dwarves. So began the great Goblin‑Dwarf wars which brought the world so much that is evil, and yet, so much that is good.   The Goblins, under King Ichlun, issued forth from their caves, sweeping across the valleys and plains in a wave of terror and war. As is written they bore armor, shields and weapons of iron or brass They favored jagged knives and short swords, spiked balls and whips, so that their war was made all the more gruesome. The Dwarves, caught unaware, threw up weak defenses, but these did not hold the ferocity of the Goblin attack. The Folk fell, cut down by the host of Thorax’s hate. These were largely innocent people, farmers and their kin, those who lived above ground and had no recourse to defense. They fled before the Goblins.

Sixth Rin: The Winters Dark

12188 and beyond

As the last breath of the Days before Days blew across the land the Emperor Sebastian Oliver I sat upon his throne with the Cradle of the World upon his brow. Behind him stood his councilor, the High Priestess, Nectanebo, servant of the goddess Imbrisuis. Before them both stood Nulak- Kiz-Din. Folds of sorcery wrapped the Arch-Magi, clothing him in power. He called upon this fountain of magic and lay the Incantations of the Paths of Umbra to summon the horror from the Void. Sebastian used vile sorcery learned from the Wizard Aristobulus, to aid him and Nectanebo lent her considerable weight to the spell’s undertaking. The Paths of Umbra split the Wall of the Worlds, opening a gate to the beyond. Unklar, wrapped in shrouds of the substance of creation, stepped into the world of Aihrde.
