Deep beneath the false floor of the Swallowing Bogs, the forces of the Pearlgrave wait. For centuries, few, if any, Akhelians or Isharann were born. Those that were anguished with guilt as the namarti withered away in front of them.
Despite the numerous raids on the people of the Steppe, the aelves of Pearlgrave could not gather enough souls to keep the namarti alive. So they turned to desperate measure.
They heard a dark voice calling to them beneath the waves, the voice of Akhmoran. It taught them the magics necessary to raise the corpses of the namarti as loyal soldiers of the undead.
his knowledge did not come without a cost. The aelves now worship this dark presence and the noble courts are twisted into creatures of blighted souls.
While the aelves still produce namarti soldiers, they now realize that the only way to spread their noble courts is to pass along their blood curse to chosen victims pulled underneath the surface of the bogs.
With the appearance of the Amber Stampede, they hope to expand their network and use the realmstone to resurrect the decaying god beast that has granted them their dark powers.
