12.14.30 Ancient Grove
In early spring of 257 AM a mystical barrier in Areish range crumbled to pieces, allowing mortals to enter the previously hidden area of Ancient Grove. The Grove, a home to many forest races, was closed of to the world for one purpose: to keep the mortal realm safe from the strange, deadly powers that hid beneath.
As the barrier fell and mortals came, so did the vyurdrags. Claiming to want to help the forest protectors keep their watch, the salamanders misused the trust places with them. With help of some sorcery and the Moons, the vyurdrags broke the seal that was keeping Terragh, the Barbarian King locked away.
Now, the guardians of the Ancient Grove still keep their watchful eye on the Ancient Barrows, offering aid and gold to any mortal brave enough to venture into the tomb and slay the undead army of the once great King.
