==Prelude to War== | |||
In the year 675 AD, [[Tomas]], architect and historian of who had lived in the ruins of [[Caanae]] for centuries, informed a group of [[Kinsarmar|Kinsarmarians]] that he had recently learned of a long lost temple in the [[Shaahri Desert]], which held an item of great power - the [[Hammer of the Gods]]. According to Tomas' research, the weapon could be used to wipe out the threat of the [[Horde]] for all of eternity. | |||
When the entrance to the temple was discovered and unearthed by [[dwarf|dwarves]] from [[Kaark'krazul]], undead horde creatures emerged from within it and attacked the dwarven miners and those mortals standing guard over the excavation site. This puzzled everyone, as Tomas believed the temple was built in the [[First Age]] and should have never been discovered by the Horde, who did not exist in Aetherius until the [[The Awakening|Awakening]]. Shortly thereafter, people at the excavation site began falling victim to a curse that turned them into [[wraiths]], and the assistance of [[Yanosyno]], a mountain priest, was requested. He fashioned a spear out of wraithwood from the trees of [[Khandava]] and, hoping that his plan would work and not further damage the people behind the wraiths, impaled Ferriter, one of those affected by the curse. Fortunately, Ferriter was returned to his physical form and the cure was administered to all others affected. | |||
