Morenth's theology revolves around the simple idea that the entire universe belongs to him, and humanity is barely worthy to bask in his radiant presence. Those who refuse to acknowledge this simple, self-evident fact heretics, and deserve punishment or death. There is no repentance for heretics guards. There was no sign of the elves they'd been warned about, at least no sign anyone would recognize. Four hundred years in the future, elves were a fairytale, commonly believed but with no proof. It was said they lived in the forbidding central forest of Huerten, a huge region of woods traversed only by an overgrown path that people avoided traveling even when going the long way around the forest could double the duration of their journey. In the present, elves existed. It was a well known fact, though Arnellplugin-autotooltip__default plugin-autotooltip_bigPreceptor Halaren

But after some additional discussion, Corbynplugin-autotooltip__default plugin-autotooltip_bigCorbyn Wren
Corbyn is a 19 year old man with straw colored hair (indeed his thick locks greatly resemble a thatched roof upon his brow). He is quite thin and has rather spindly limbs that are nevertheless quite agile. Despite his youth, he wears the short robes of a scholar over his breeches and introduces himself as a tutor for hire. He prefers scarlet cloth for his robes and more pedestrian materials for his trousers. was convinced that they should all be in the open. The group ate their stew and waited.
As soon as the sun set, things started to happen. A faint globe of light appeared ten feet above the crystal, and turned back and forth slowly like a featureless head observing its surroundings.

He fell the couple inches down to the stone platform, stumbling and nearly falling while uttering a potent series of curses. Following much more nimbly were two women, then another man.

Halaren stands wide and heavy, large feet and hands offsetting a comparably small head. He looks in his late twenties. His skin is pale and a little blubberous, tugging his facial features downwards to give him a slightly sad and dim-witted appearance. His face is well shaved, and hair medium in length, though so thin and wispy his head is clearly visible underneath. Further adding to his girth are the heavy robes he wears, well worn and covered in smudges. A long, deliberate … was casting preparatory spells, one of which allowed him to hear the surface thoughts of others.

Before the Battle of the Magics, Brundash was the mysterious home of a world-wide organization of magi. Even then, few could claim to have seen it, and no one would say where or even what it was. Brundash was a term used both for the place, and the organization..
