Shyish
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

Barak-Gol Expeditionary Force
The Ressurected
The Copse of Silence
Once upon a distant time during the Age of Myth, an underworld in the realm of Shyish was one of the few to be more on the lively side. Here in the afterlife of song, was the underworld known as Cadenza.
The Brinewood Coven
A ship mistress of Varkos Varactyr’s Wraith fleet, Bellatash, arrived in Ghur through a realm gate she inadvertently sailed into in Aqshy. Now known as the “Maelstrom Rift”, this realm gate swirls around the oceans of both realms, moving from place to place as an everlasting storm.
Bellatash found a fishing village in decline upon exiting the Maelstrom Rift and soon bled her way through the village, sating her hunger. On the cliffs above the the village sat an ancient stone lighthouse. Bellatash claimed the lighthouse keeper as her thrall, giving him the gift of half life and the necrotic arts.
Bellatash has since made the lighthouse her base of power, dubbing it the Crimson Spire and constructing a chair of driftwood and bone in it’s main hall. Bellatash preys upon the nearby shipping lanes, using the lighthouse beacon as a lure, growing her raised legions and looking for suitable candidates to expand her court.
Lord-Aquilor Lucina Chromsdottir
Lord-Aquilor of The Children of The End Times Vanguard-Auxiliary Chamber of The Blades of Light Stormhost. A grim woman determined to see her task of felling a draconic godbeast done. While her memory often fragments into haunting visions of what was and might yet come, her recollection of her heritage as the daughter of a fearless warrior king is clear, and she would be damned if she were to sully her father’s legacy.
The Mournful Choir
Natives of Shyish, the Mournful Choir is a warband of mortal Rotbringers of Nurgle who have embraced him as the rightful god of death and ruler of the Amethyst Realm. Their worship of Nurgle in the aspect of death is based on the need for firstly an ending of the mortal coil, in order to allow the cycle of life to continue unending. They display a very morose character in common with most inhabitants of Shyish and in direct contrast to the typical view of Nurglites as jovial and happy – often appearing emaciated, haggard and skeletal. They eschew the more usual greens and other colours of rot, usually painting their armour in whites and blacks with images of death, skulls and the like on their banners.

(variations of this have been seen, though these may be different “choirs” within the overall order.)
The Order’s holdfast is known as Weeping Tor, a keep surrounded by the Griefmere, a deep and mostly impenetrable marsh.
