Aqshy
Trade has come back to the Mortal Realms, even if only partially, and with great risk. But with trade come rumours and opportunities to make a name for yourself. Beware though, tales shift on the winds of the Mortal Realms, and it is not uncommon for rumours to be found unfounded or changed beyond recognition

The Lavafall Restricted Area
The Lavafall District in Hammerhal Aqsha had been thoroughly devastated, after the gargantuan Charonhydra escaped the alleged Grand Stormvault beneath the city. Wild spells and ancient monsters, trapped since the Age of Myth, were released into the city, and the Council of Hammerhal sealed off the district, leading to riots inside for months.
The threat within and below grew so big that the Hammers of Sigmar themselves descended on the vault at last, and seemingly neutralized most of the threat… or did they?
Things have calmed down since, but large parts of the district are still quarantined, to prevent entry to the bowels of the vault and for fear of Chaos corruption… and rightly so.
Pirates and more!
Pirates, leviathans, and ghoul-infested ships prowl the Searing Sea, endangering Har Kuron’s maritime trade.
The Gargantuan Charonhydra
The Gargantuan Charonhydra was released from the alleged Stormvault beneath Hammerhal, and in its rise devastated half of the Lavafall district before being driven out to the Crescent Sea.
It still swims out there, threatening settlements all the way from the coast off Hammerhal, to Fort Denst, the Cape of Spines and all across the Vitriol Sea.
