History

A Chronology of Events and Encounters

Once, long ago, Balor (Demon Prince of Darkness) ruled The Mountains of Brack, and from there his icy breath covered the land with thick blizzards and dark scudding clouds. Other Demons conspired together to overthrow the rule of Darkness, burying the city of Nem, the seat of Balor's power, forever in the icy mountains. First Aim (The Fire Duke) exploded at the heart of Balor's smithy where dark engines of destruction were built, and the city and the land for miles around were buried in deep volcanic ash. A burning ember of that explosion was carried far over the mountains by the howling wind and fell just where the city of Glissom now stands. To this day the glowing ember still burns at the center of the tower. Then Vapula (The Lion Duke) split open the earth to swallow the city and Crocell (The Duke of the Bath) poured down water, freezing it over and locking Balor and the rubble of his city forever beneath the ice pack. Balor is actually imprisoned beneath his temple on the northern edge of the frozen lake Nem.

The Wight Prince Fengil was his head priest and worked to have him released before he was destroyed. For this Prince Fengil needed (but did not get) the sacred hearth fire from Glissom.
