Caulay Aerfen and Thro'ahlar's Fate

     When the Age of Dragons was ended and the Ellyllon and Duar warred for their kingdoms, Corrain took a wife named Nora Ni from the hill tribe Aerfen of Nivena. He sent his avatar to court her, and she was soon with child. When the child arrived, she named her son Caulay. Corrain knew the other gods forbid disrupting the lives of mortals after the fate of the Dragons, and that he could not raise this child of both worlds. To protect his son, he asked an elder spirit of fire to watch over Caulay, and fill him with a burning passion for life.

     Caulay was a healthy boy, and soon a powerful man and respected warrior within his tribe. When the fallen Ellyllon sought to establish a kingdom in Nivena after The Scarring, they burned the villages of the hills tribes and pushed the humans from their ancestral home. Caulay answered the call to battle, and he led his tribe to defeat 500 Ellyllon warriors and sorcerers who threatened their homeland. Three other tribes united under Caulay's banner, and the invaders were pushed to the sea against the Kerr mountains.

    Against the cliffs, on the Northern coast of Nivena, the armies clashed. The Ellyllon sorcerers created a grand magical circle and summoned a great flock of harpies. As the armies of men were being torn apart by the fowl creatures, Caulay plunged his cold iron longsword into the rocks, and the cliff face split and broke away burrying the harpies in falling rocks.

     The Ellyllon warlord, Thro'ahlar, met Caulay in battle with his blade. Caulay's reserves now fading, the warlord's ensorceled blade and armour began to give him the edge. With each swing of the sword, Caulay knew he was running out of time, so he made a deft feint and swung hard for the pommel of the sorcerer's sword. Thro'ahlar cried out in pain as his four fingers launched into sea-misted air. He summoned all of his power and transformed into a great serpent with 6 heads. Caulay was disarmed by the first head's snapping teeth, and the second, third, fourth and fifth caught his limbs and held him aloft. As the sixth head plunged its teeth into his chest, his fiery heart was revealed. The elemental burst forth, incinerating the serpent and casting its outline across the cliffs.

     Thro'ahlar's Fate as it is called now, can be seen from the sea off the Northern coast of Nivena.
