Entrants to Drakengrad

May 17, 2022

War looms on Drakengrad’s horizon, drawing those who seek fortune, fame, or things entirely separate into the region. Many among them chose to wander the lands and explore the forgotten underworld, but this did not keep any safe.

Exiled Sylvaneth led by their enigmatic Warsong Revenant wove the ambient magics of Ghyran and Ghur present among a pair of Drakengrad’s Sentinel Bones to animate a Kronspine Incarnate, seeking to perhaps regain the attentions of The Everqueen. However, they only succeeded in drawing beasts of The Hungering Warherd to despoil surrounding lands, before breaking the Sylvaneth warband and weakening their Incarnate to the point of discorperation. As the beastmen continued their rampage, more creatures joined the carnage, including a pair of cockatrices.

Elsewhere in the wilds, another Sylvaneth glade, The Hollowpine, crept silently into the region, their coming known only to a singer of the Hidden Tribe of Mila and the dead Fell Dragon Cultists who once imprisoned her. They continued to spread their silence through the woods near The Mila Tree, seeking a Gladewyrm. In the skies, The Mad Master, leader of an exploratory fleet of Kharadron surveyed the region, mapping extensively the locations of the Sentinel Bones.

Others still entered Drakengrad to answer the call of Drakheim for help in combating the Cult of The Fell Dragon. Among these were the Barak-Gol Expeditionary Force, led by Admiral Gunvyn Grimbeard, who in traveling to the Free City, were ambushed by a marauding wave of Idoneth raiders. The Kharadron were devastated, but before they could be wiped out, Avengorii vampires known simply as “The Resurrected” handily dispersed the soul-reaving aelves. This act of heroism in defending those aligned with the Free City earned the Vengorian Lord the allyship of a Knight-Questor of The Children of The End Times, Lyndis Hausendottir.

The Cult of The Fell Dragon, however, were not ones to sit idle as their enemy gathered allies. Their emissaries made contact with Nighthaunt leader Rhel the Collector of the Indemnifiers, and requested they cause chaos among the dutiful recordkeepers of the Free City. The Nighthaunt descended, ruining a number of recent scouting reports, before a regiment of The Ashen Drakes, a Freeguild company in service of the city, managed to disperse the spirits, though with heavy losses.

As the entrants to Drakengrad establish themselves with the Free City, the fiendish Cult, or as their own independent entities, war in earnest is poised to break, as fleet-footed agents of The Cult of The Fell Dragon return from their excursion to Ghur with precious amberstone, the taloned feet of their Stormcast pursuers’ gryph-chargers close behind…
