Established in Irendille territory since the year 914 of the first era, the black fortress is the subject of incessant wars between the people of Irendille and the dark elves of Nasgaroth.
Several times a year, murderous expeditions led jointly by dark elves and mountain orcs bloody the northwest of the kingdom of Irendille. The hatred that the Mountain Orcs and Dark Elves have for the Forest People is ancient. In 914 of the first era the dark elves completed the construction of a fortress on the coasts of the kingdom of Irendille, without the knowledge of the wood elves. This advanced post allowed the kingdom of Nasgaroth to establish itself firmly in Irendille to orchestrate its murderous raids. Most of these are carried out by brutal mercenaries recruited from the mountain orcs. Partially destroyed in 954 of the first era during the Battle of the Bud, burned in 967 of the first era, taken numerous times and recaptured as many times, this fortress of death is still a thorn in the kingdom of Irendille today. .
Irendille campaign of 1001
The autumn 1001 expedition was led by Count Ashtar of House Osgoroth, supported by the two orc clan leaders, Waash and Pok Amargath. After terrible clashes around Ent Hill, which saw hundreds of elves, orcs and Rangers lose their lives, the Wood Elves pushed the forces of Nasgaroth back to the gates of the fort. The ruin is still under the control of the dark elves. But the wood elves led by Laenneck, of the Wolf clan, and helped by Esteban's foresters surround the dark elves and their orc allies entrenched in the ruin.

Irendille campaign of 1002
The Ilta-Machtas struck from the start of hostilities in the heart of the Black Fortress with the determination of a wolf and the agility of an eagle. Laenneck knew that the black banner would no longer fly in the land of Irendille at sunset. The ancients had prepared them to fight without ever letting their being be soiled with the feeling of hatred. The Ilta-Machtas have learned to see in their enemies the path to wisdom, because it is they who allow them to test their bravery, their perseverance and their capacity for decision. And above all, they are the ones who force them to fight for their dreams.

The Awakening of Arta Morna
The Taluskan trackers are categorical: A large grouping of orc, Beastman and Dark Elf clans is underway on the outskirts of the ancient black fortress. A sign of a new alliance between these warlike races, a group of foresters from Irendille recently fell into a deadly ambush on the borders of the elven kingdom and the Empire.
Word of this incident spread quickly among the Imperial border towns. In fact, the Empire is concerned about this alliance and fears that this is only the beginning of future incursions on its territory. The ancient black fortress of Arta Morna would indeed be the ideal base for gathering and preparing attacks on the imperial border villages, which are very isolated in this sector.
Relations being what they are between the Kingdom of Irendille and the Empire, the Imperial Council has decided to organize an expedition to the former Imperial fortress to get to the bottom of it and find out exactly what is happening there. , and if there is a threat, to eradicate it immediately. This mission is being prepared and will take place with or without the agreement of the Borderers of Irendille.
The men chosen to compose the battalion which will be sent to elven territory are for the most part distinguished soldiers and veterans. They will form the “Black Griffin” battalion and will be equipped with brand new gunpowder weapons developed by the Empire. With this unprecedented “firepower”, they hope to be prepared for all eventualities when faced with an enemy about whom they know little. In fact, the wildest rumors surround this new breed. The “Houmbawas”, Beastmen, appeared last year in several places in our world. The existing testimonies are all similar: They appeared in regions where a very strong blue glow was seen during many nights.
The shamans of the orc tribes saw this as the long-awaited warning sign from the start; that of the decline of human rule and the beginning of a new era for the orc and goblin tribes. Perceived as those sent in response to the ceremonies of their shamans, the “Houmbawas” enjoy the status of quasi-demigods among the goblinoid populations and they use it cheerfully, having found in these tribes the armies that they did not have. not here yet.
