====Conflict Grows==== | ====Conflict Grows==== | ||
Distrust caused by the actions of the Malignists caused the leadership of the Noctusari and the government of Stavenn to have an icy relationship in the early years of the Third Age. Tensions rose to a climax in the year 405 AD, when a battle broke out in the [[Ravana Hills]] near the city, between leaders of the Noctusari and citizens, including Aakrin Krax'ai, Yosho Delphian, Appolyon Kyr'anet, and Malith. The Noctusari, including Lidara S'Sylistha, Martyn Faris, Sarentha and Melantha D'Ahdri, Kabal Brynja, and Rauglaer, were attempting a ritual that, if successful, would steal death magick from the guilds of Stavenn. | |||
Martyn was killed, and upon his resurrection, he fled to the Noctusari guildhall to alert the other members. Meanwhile, the Noctusari were bound and brought back to a locked chamber in the city, and the Stavennites brutally tortured and maimed them. In the final moments before their inevitable death, the Noctusari cried out something in the demonic language, and a fiery portal appeared before them. [[Berodach]], the eldest of the Noctusari and the guild's current tutor, passed through the portal with a horde of demons at his side. The Stavennites managed to kill Berodach, but he quickly rose once again to life as a Demon Lord - the first known appearance of these beings. In the confusion, the Noctusari, save for Kabal, were able to escape back to their guildhall. | |||
====Infiltration of the Noctusari Guildhall==== | |||
The mob of Stavennites brought Kabal to the sealed entrance of the Noctusari guildhall, and with the help of Malignists, a ritual was performed to break the barrier protecting it. Varulan Qel'Daithe-Kyr'anet performed the ritual using Kabal's blood to construct a pentagram on the ground. With the crash of thunder and a bolt of lightning from the heavens, a massive crater opened up in the middle of the city, allowing entrance to the guildhall. | |||
Demons and magickal totems hindered the Stavennites as they tried to enter, but Aakrin cleverly devised a way to spread an inferno throughout the halls, killing them all. Once inside, Berodach was again slain, this time for good. The rest of the Noctusari, however, could not be found. A tunnel was discovered, which had allowed the Noctusari guild members to safely retreat, the path blocked by an indomitable demon guardian. | |||
