After years of fierce struggles and incessant wars, the Unnamable Ones appeared. They swept through our forests, destroying everything in their path; no force could resist them. All our forests caught fire, and our sanctuaries were destroyed. We had no choice but to flee this uncontrollable malevolent damnation. The continent was nothing but embers and ashes when the high priests of Tolimarth decided to recall the monsters and imprison them in the caves of Mondakasgoroth. They executed Akilam and forged the Ice Sword. But before sinking into the waters, the lands of Ismael opened in their center to reveal gigantic caves teeming with unknown crystals.

Dark elf tradition speaks of nine immortal families of Tolimarth. While my knowledge of portals is limited, I believe Tolimarth is another plane that exists outside of Mundus. Due to the influence of this extra-planer magic, many other species find the magic of Nasgaroth strange and disturbing.

In the past, the dark elves allowed some humans to settle in the provinces of Harganeth and Nasgaroth (the province has the same name as the region.) However dark elf extremists exterminated all the humans present after barely a century.

Tolimarth is the mother province where Queen Malika lived. Some stories also speak of Mondakasgoroth, an underground city that was closed up by sage dark elves to protect their people.

After so many centruries of conflict and disaster and little hope that the Guardians would return to restore order, dark elves decided to leave the central lands. The High Sages of Morak An Graef and Tolimarth called upon their people for a total exodus from Nasgaroth. Tens of thousands of dark elves marched towards the Tolternoth portal towards the promise of a new world.

Tolimarth - Morak An Graef:

The province was once considered part of Nasgaroth. It was ruled by Prince Morath, the son of the famous dark elf, Queen Malika. It was once considered the heart of dark elf Nasgaroth as it housed the Grand Council and nine ancient families. Marthomasse, the forbidden city, is at the province's center, guarding the invaluable Moonstones in the Temple Noir. In 9505, the Moonstone cycle ended, and the Grand Matron orchestrated a flawless purification ceremony lasting over 50 weeks. In 9506, the heirs and Grand Matron emerged from the Temple Noir, marking the return of legendary dark elven magical powers felt by mages across the world.

Summer 1018: The provincial banner of Harganeth Zmenkh s'argten has been dissolved due to lack of maintenance for two years. Added the Army from Beyond the Grave artifact. The Grand Master Archmage stood above his tower from another age, surrounded by his apprentices. Raising his arms in the air, he unleashed purple lightning between the dark clouds. In a terrible voice, he thundered: "Oh great Tenamuach, let your anger be directed towards your true enemies, those who destroyed the Deep of Tolternoth and temporarily broke the access to the arcane. Accept this sacrifice so that the pact continues between us and may our vengeance be complete!” It was then that a family of 15 peasants was taken to the specially built sacrificial altar. It looked like an old, misshapen windmill, decorated with hundreds of skulls on its propellers which slowly turned with the wind, creaking. One after another, the peasants were pushed inside the dark entrance to the mill. After abominable screams of pain and horror, all that came out of the mill was a jet of blood on the side which caused its great wheel to turn like a water mill would. The blood mill was therefore baptized. At the same time as the sacrifice, desolation was being created elsewhere for the Tenamuach. Reinforcement of 5 undead. Veldruk opens the Urn of Torment on his own domain immediately after casting the absorb spell on this effect. (Arak'Naruk, Bicolline.online)

Aelnesse was now on the eve of her birthday and something in her made her hope to see her beloved, Maïltikh again. That night she went to watch at the top of the Great Tower of Morak An Graef and plunged her gaze and her mind into the darkness that stretched before her to the north.
