Current On-Goings: The Drow, Crystals, And Undead Threat
-
I bring forth information to the Leadership, and any new Templars regarding the chaos that currently plagues Arabel and the Tear as a whole.
As I was not here during the initial attacks that have predated what occurs, there will still remain some information that I lack, and additional papers will be given as I learn.
Currently we are beset by a Drow Force from the Underdark commanded by Vyra. A crafty individual who uses numerous methods to wage war upon the surface. The Drow have used both the Crystal's who serve under a being called 'The Mother' and the Undead, most of whom are raised from corrupted places.
Along with their actions being aligned with those of the Undead 14th Legion. Purple Dragon Knight's who suffered at the hands of the Winter Storm. This also includes the lost Queen of Arabel and her Daughter. Whom many seek to rescue to regain stability on the Arabellan Throne.
Multiple Adventurer's and Faiths are working on these growing threats, some more directly than others. As it stands we have had numerous battles with the Drow, and dealt some blows, but it seems that for a straight war, we are wildly outmatched in terms of numbers. We have been striking blows at specific locations, and seek to cripple their output of Undead, and cut off their use of Crystals to scry on our movements.
The Crystals themselves are not a TRUE threat in the sense. We have been able to communicate with them peacefully, and they have openly stated they do not like the drow for they use 'The Mothers Gifts' and give nothing in return. It is likely that we can have these beings adopted into a peaceful setting, and perhaps even aid us in our plight against the Drow, and thus hopefully remove the Crystals as being any threat.
The Undead, more specifically the 14th Legion is another concern on it's own, but due to the Drow's nature of using undead in their war, having them around is an ever growing concern. They have been using Portals, made from rituals to traverse back to lands outside of the Storm where they reside. They were created by the Queen who made a deal to save her people. As of now the Queen is trapped in a pocket plane.
Leads are being followed on all these fronts. Should any assistance be able to be given on any, the people of Arabel would likely welcome any aid of the Templars into the fray to help keep the Tear from falling into more chaos.
Should any wish to ever discuss these development please reach out, or if any wish to add details onto this that is believe to be of importance to the dealings. They may do so.
