Ortus Tatravellan
Truestone Consul
A particularly obstinate member of the Alarith temple in Ymetrica’s Glib Stretch region, Ortus Tatrevellan has had a hand in securing several Lumineth cities and outposts over his brief 170-year career. More than an unyielding combatant, he also serves as an envoy for the Alarith, establishing contact with mountain spirits and mountain-dwelling mortals in realms beyond Hysh. The Glib Stretch’s Stonemage has recently tasked him with establishing connections in the Heaving Mountains of Ghyran.
Prior to arriving in The Lustrare River Valley, he was renowned in Chamon for establishing an unusual truce between Lumineth prospectors and the Bronzebite Mawtribe who dwell in the region. Shortly after their arrival, the Alarith Stoneguard and Mawtribe each developed a grudging respect (or the closest feeling to respect with which an aelf can regard an ogor) for the other’s monumental durability during their initial skirmishes.
After determining it would be impossible to rout the ogors from the area with their current numbers, Ortus approached their immense tyrant Garrul Bronzebitten to establish a mutually-beneficial trade deal. After all, what happens to the corpses and inferior equipment of the human, duardin, or beastman the Lumineth would slay in establishing their new territory would be of little concern to them.
Race to the Vault
Tzeentchian sorcerers have turned their attention to the Doomstretch, with dire consequences for the aelves of the region and the realm as a whole…
A blot on eastern Ymetrica, the Doomstretch is avoided by sane souls. The sky churns with aftershocks from intense magical combat, and the land is split by constant tectonic agony. Beneath the Doomstretch was buried a loathsome relic, named in crystal tablets as Yngr’yme or the ‘Shackler of Peaks’. While records of the artefact’s precise nature were lost, legend spoke of its ability to enslave the minds of the mountains – a sin beyond measure in Ymetrica.
If Tzeentch’s forces were to claim such a relic, they could inflict wounds upon Ymetrica that might undo the work of the Reinvention. Whatever Lumineth forces could be mustered were drawn together, even if it occasionally required Sigmarite allies to be abandoned mid-campaign. To the aelves, it was a grievous but necessary sacrifice. They could only hope to reach the Doomstretch vault before all was lost.
