FROM ME, TO ALL OF YOU
HAPPY HOLIDAYS
Hello LoTC! To most of you, I am a stranger, to some, I’m an acquaintance and to others, I’m a friend. But to all of you, I’m a fellow community member. It is during this rare period of the year where spirits are high I’d like to take some time to reflect. We’ve come far since 2011 and the fact that we’re still here today was not something I foresaw nor expected. I joined this server after being uninterested in roleplay my friends goaded me into it. I made a promise to them that I would only join if they accepted my application, an application so bad that no server I’d ever played on before would accept it. There was Dragonborn level bad and mother blowing up into confetti but for some ungodly reason, I was accepted. Here I am today one of the few who stayed behind a relic of a past that mostly exists in memory. In the end, those that I called friends back then are no longer around going out in life to make something out of themselves.
I had originally intended to join them yet the magic of this place always kept me around even in the harshest of times. Though my humour is much darker now I genuinely love this community, what we do together is nothing short of inspiring. We like to fight over the minuscule, to harp at each other over allegiances, yet deep within I know we’ve all a shared passion. This story, this universe, this community was created by us and no matter our differences that cannot be taken from us. While I’m unusually free to express my emotions let me just thank you all for what you’ve done for me. This server has in many ways saved my life and I find we often neglect to recognize what good it does. I almost died a good four or five times during my time here. If it was not for the overwhelming support of you, my peers, I would perhaps be one of the gravestones in Cloud Temple. In dark days I looked at those stones, Watyll, Adam Higgs, Leka213, Maeghan Sterling and Valon_Oakheart all reminded me of the worth of life and I can only hope they rest in peace where they are. They and their memory lead me to fight for my life and I’m better for it.
So in their memory as well as to remind ourselves that life is short but sweet. Let’s set aside our differences, to remember the good rather than the bad, let’s share here in this post what the server and its community has done for us. May the future be brighter and let’s hope for a better tomorrow.
Sincerely, thanks for everything
Julius Aakerlund
I would like to thank a few specific people while I have the chance, those I cherish like brothers and sisters. As well as those close friends I have made here.
THE ET TEAM
SpoilerI thank you for the work you do for our team and wish you a happy holiday.
SpoilerWe began a journey together in the times of Joel and now try to carry on the torch for the next generation. I have had my differences with you and was originally uncertain how you’d manage your new role. It was a happy surprise to find out that you would do the job well and I hope it continues. Your eventline has finally ended and I look forward to seeing what you bring next to the table. I thank you for your outstanding work, truly a fellow workaholic.
SpoilerYou brought enjoyment to many with your events this map. I hopefully won’t be crashing any of them with magical rocks again. You’re easy to cooperate with and your writing is intriguing as well as original. I hope to see more of you and that you will partake evermore with our team.
SpoilerI’ve not seen much of you yet, but I hope to see more. Let the new year be yours and the new ET generations time to shine.
SpoilerTalkative, nice and clearly energetic you bring spirit to those around you and heighten the mood. I am glad you are a part of our team and you’ve impressed with your creativity. Let your carting days continue until the lag ceases and by then let’s hope the world ready to embrace you.
SpoilerThis guy, now let me tell you about this guy. But for real he’s a real one and our team wouldn’t be the same without him. The work you do is astounding, your effect on the team is without a doubt and I look forward to your current project bearing its fruit. Also, stop ******* inting me in CS:GO you absolute ***** ****. (Also your humour is even more fucked than mine)
SpoilerReally one of the loveliest people around and every time we talk I feel genuinely connected. I see a lot in you that I can respect as well as associate with. You’re a kindred spirit yet you don’t let the world consume you nor its horrors. I wish your new year to be truly blessed and for your troubles to clear.
SpoilerWhile a sperg most of the day he’s a hero at night. Jokes aside your one of our most beloved members of the team and I really wish you the best. I know life can be dark at times, but without them, we’d never cherish the good.
@Wetoos
SpoilerYour one of my few brothers on this earth and whenever we’re together I never fail to have fun. We have the same messed up humour and I love you even the more for it. The event we’ve been working on will be soon ™ hopefully, I’m looking forward to making people share in our laughter.
SpoilerYou’re truly one of the most creative people around and surely an asset to those on the team. I hope to see you shine bright and continue a legacy of original content never before seen. When I first saw your interview I knew you’d fit into the team perfectly and I was truly impressed. I only hope you will continue to impress me more with time.
SpoilerIt would not be far off to call you my little brother. I watched over you in your teens and look forward to making memories in your adulthood. I’ve never found a kindred spirit more attuned to my line of philosophy. When we’d talk I stared at the stars, I can only hope that one day we’ll be next to each other.
SpoilerOur contact has been minimal throughout the years yet I already knew of your talented writing. When I saw your name I knew you’d have my vote and your interview only proved me further. It will be good to see you give back to the community with your talent and I’m looking forward to it.
SpoilerThe most beloved crayon eating man you can find around. We truly love him and often mess with him but we’d never be the same without him. It’s good to have a prankster on your side, perhaps one day he’ll outshine Loki.
SpoilerNo team can truly be completed without an Aussie. For when I’m not telepathically speaking with LoTCers he is the one that feeds me. I really don’t like the way you look at me so don’t blame me for standing on your shoulders. Honestly though what a person to be around, truly I hope you’ll never leave us.
SpoilerPlease for the love of God never touch anything fire-related ever again. In specific the type which has wings, you know what I mean. Also, you’re most definitely a purple dark elf how do you consider that red? That aside I’m looking forward to seeing where you bring your events. I’m still going to headshot you in Kronker though and stop using shotguns *****.
SpoilerYou’re one of the funniest people I know and we have fun together all the time. I hope you’re doing great out there in the wide world. I’m also looking forward to your events and hope that you know that I’ll always be here if you need me.
SpoilerWhile you aren’t always that expressive you do provide the team with a lot of happiness which I hope you know. I’m looking forward to our cooperation and I’m glad that we could find something to work on together. You’re extremely talented and I couldn’t be happier to call you a fellow ET.
SpoilerI swear to god if you stand me up another time I’m **** ******. Love you man, honestly, I wish you the best in life. Just know no matter the situation I’m here if you need me. There are few people like you who can stand my absolute stupidity.
SpoilerI don’t know much about you but still, wish you the best. I hope you will participate in team activities may they be social or projects.
@Zidoax
SpoilerYou’re not often in voice but I see you sometimes in our chats. You’ve expressed a lot of creative ideas and I get truly excited at their prospects. Hope to see some amazing events come out of it and truly wish you the best.
THE LT TEAM
OUR HANDICAPPED BROTHERS & SISTERS
(Those of you I know)
SpoilerPlease spare us and never write wonk lore ever again I will actually cry. Love you man and I really hope everything is well and that your new year will be fruitful.
SpoilerDo make sure you warn me before you come on over and infect the population with the burger grease. You’ve had a few harsh moments this year and it’s with sincere wishes I hope the new one is softer on you.
@Riftblade (I think this is Ulmo?)
SpoilerMy crazy comrade in arms that’s always ready to help. I really wish you the best and hope your new year is filled with happiness. You uplift others without knowing it and treat many with respect. I commend you for your work and truly hope to see a lot more of you.
SpoilerPractically my little sister and someone that never fails to put a smile on my lips no matter how messed up I am. The world nor LoTC would ever be the same without you. I can only hope that you are shown the same love and care that you bring to others. If you ever need me you know where to find me, no matter the time or place.
SpoilerYou don’t often join in on the VC calls but whenever you do there’s always a strong presence coming off of you. I’m happy to have you around and your attentiveness to help others is truly a blessing. I hope your new year is fantastic and that you and your team may finally move onto new things.
SpoilerWe don’t talk often but you’re caring and dedicated. I don’t think there’s many who could ever come near your LT req completion rate. Your efforts make life easier for others and as such, I only hope the same will be given to you.
SpoilerYou’re one of the few out there that I’d truthfully call family and will always be like a sister to me. I’m always caught up in things and while it can sometimes be a detriment I hope you know I love you. I really wish you the best in life and that you’ll find yourself the happiness you so rightfully deserve.
Spoiler1SpoilerWhile we’ve never talked I would like to thank you for the help you’ve given me this year. The honesty and genuine feedback kept me from making a mistake outside of my sight. With your truthfulness, you guided me back onto the right path for my eventline a project I’ve worked on for very long. While I fear I’ll have to pester you still for more input I still wish you the best. There are few that have earned my respect and trust in such a short exchange of words let that be known.
FRIENDS AND FAMILY
Spoilerthanks for all the amazing work and dedication to your job. I and the entire ET team are extremely thankful and I for one hope you have a fantastic new year.
SpoilerLove you man and sorry for all the badly timed meetings. Looking forward to getting to know you more come next year.
SpoilerYou’re one of the nicest people I’ve ever met and words can’t express your kindness. If there is anyone that truly deserves a happy new year I would be hard stressed to find someone more deserving.
SpoilerHappy to see you back and it feels good to have a fellow old fart around to feel old with together. I hope you’re well and that your new year will bring you many goods things as well.
SpoilerMy brother from another mother a fellow with a lot of love for this community. While it may sometimes come out in angry rants or many an upvoted forum post. I could never forget you or what you’ve done for the server. I wish you the best bud.
SpoilerNo u and reverse uno card. Also, make a change your name post on the new year I bet you won’t. xoxo ❤️ (also best sister)
SpoilerYou’re someone that would unironically try to PvP someone IRL only to forget how stupid it is. You’re crazy and that’s what I love about you, smart while also humble. I hope that you know I cherish you dearly though we might not talk as often anymore. Let the new year be good on your part I really hope so.
SpoilerI don’t think we need too many words between us. You created some of the things I’ve enjoyed over the years. I helped you later in hopes to give back and created a few things in hopes to spread the same mindset. While we don’t speak often I’d consider us friends and I hope you feel the same. With that said I really wish you the best and I’m happy to work together on the staff now.
SpoilerI swear I’ll headshot you every single damn time in Kronker you bastard xoxo <3. Love you bud and I’m happy to see you on staff again. Let’s try to not have a remake of last time this time around!
@Fruu_ne
SpoilerYou’re one of the most genuine people around and honestly I’d probably have gone inactive a lot quicker if it wasn’t for you. I really appreciate all the encouragement you gave both I and the rest of the Aldin’s. There are few that I do genuinely hope to have a good life and you definitely deserve it.
SpoilerYou’ve got some sugar on your lip…. Love you bud and I’ll join you in the glasses club soon ™. I wish you a fantastic new year and happiness in whatever form it might take (white or otherwise).
SpoilerLooking forward to meeting you sometime next year. I have never met someone so open and self-determined to make his own decisions in life. While others thought I was some nefarious devil you gave yourself time to make your own decision. I’m happy to call you a fellow Swede, as well as a friend and truly, wish you the best.
SpoilerYou da best, please hab good new year.
SpoilerDon my son may the clicks be with you as well as your trademark kindness. I truly wish you a good new year and hope whatever trouble you face will be solved smoothly.
SpoilerWe’ve been friends in years past and I hope we’re friends in years present. I was extremely ecstatic to see your return as well as the happiness you spread to others. I know both young and old are extremely happy to have you here and I’m amongst them. I wish you the best in life and truly hope you have a blessed life.
SpoilerYou’re a real man with integrity and I could only hope to see your life filled with happiness. We don’t speak that often anymore but it is people like you that give me hope in humanity.
@BaratheonBBQ
SpoilerBro… stop cutting down that… tree… stop… oH NO… have a good new year monkey.
SpoilerThough you’ve changed since we last spoke I still see you as one of my friends. I hope you remember to respect others and show them the kindness and happiness you showed me. Let’s remember that we’re all here to have fun and see the best in each other. I truly wish you the best and that you may overcome all your hardships during the new year.
SpoilerYou’ve given me laughter and happiness over the years. While your military plans, unfortunately, did not go as planned I’m happy to see you safe and sound. To you, I’ve always wished the best and this will truly never change. The best King of Haense and my beloved friend & comrade : )
SpoilerWe’ve been friends for many years and one of these days we’ll open our restaurant. We shared in laughter and happiness and together helped build something that truly lasted. I wish you the best in everything, life, work and all the moments in between.
SpoilerLove you bud, hope to see you around more : )
SpoilerHonestly you’re one of the kindest, nicest and most real person I’ve ever met during my stay here. I’m glad to be able to call you my friend and really wish you the best.
SpoilerWhile I might not be roleplaying much anymore I’ll be glad to hear of Anya’s accomplishments come the future : ). Love you lots and hope you have a fantastic new year.
SpoilerWhile we’ve had our differences I’ve never disliked you and always wished you the best. So as the occasion is ripe and right I hope to wish you a good life on this most hallowed day.
SpoilerMy wife, my friend and my Lil apprentice. We don’t speak as often as we once did, I have a tendency to get caught up in things and when I do time passes quickly. Just know that in times like those I’m still always here and available, my silence is no mark for disinterest nor for dislike. For you, I’ll always be available to help you whenever you need me or just be an outlet. Love you lots my guy and really wish you the best.
SpoilerWhile I’m no longer as invested as I once was it still pains me I never got to give you an RP experience enjoyable and carefree. I had hoped to give you a place to relax and in many ways failed you. While you’ve always helped me I must reassure you that I’ll always do likewise. If you ever need me you know where to find me, no matter the war or drama.
SpoilerI congratulate you once again for becoming Queen of Haense and I know you’ve always had aspirations and I’m truly happy to see them pay off. I hope your life is well and that you’ll always know I’m here if you need me.
SpoilerI’m going to T-Bag your mineman don’t even try me. Wish you the best xoxo <3.
SpoilerWe’ve not talked as often as we once did but I really hope you the best in life. I’ll never forget the good moment we shared together nor the happiness and laughter in between bad times.
@ivory
SpoilerYou’ve helped me with so many things over the years and while I hope I’ve made you laugh and smile a good few times. I find myself wanting to remind you that I wish you the best in life.
SpoilerWe were neighbours when you joined the server and I don’t think I’ve ever had more annoying ones in my whole life. With time though you matured and I grew to like you more and more. There are few people on this server that have grown as much as you have and I hope you know that. I can proudly call you a peer today and you’ve given the server a lot. I can only hope your life is filled with joy and happiness.
SpoilerI love you my guy and you’re one of the last people left from our original squad. Just know that no matter the time or place I’m here for you.
SpoilerOne of these days I’ll stop being lazy and get on to grumble at you IRP. Wish you the best bud.
SpoilerTruly a sweet gal, your art is evolving fast and we’ve made each other laugh a good lot. I wish you the best Delila and please don’t put a curse on me! This message was sponsored by Pancake ***** ™
SpoilerYou’re a real friend and have always been there to listen to my long and lengthy rants. You mean a lot to me and I really hope you have a good new year.
SpoilerGreasechurger is best, miss me with that Beese ****. Honestly, the server wouldn’t be the same without you and we’ve come far since you joined. I really hope and wish you the best in life do continue lifting them gainz. Also how the **** did solving a puzzle take you 6 days? Actual noob.
SpoilerKeep birding on and make sure to rub Zazu on their head for me. You’re one of the kindest people around and I really wish you the best. The server would be a worse place without you that’s for sure.
@Top_goon
SpoilerYou old ugly codger you’d best pull yourself up by the bootstraps and call me sometime. I feel lonely without you <3, really wish you the best bud.
SpoilerDiamond Dogs are forever if you ever need me you know where to find me.
SpoilerI hope you have had a great year and I’m extremely proud of you. I really wish you the best and I’ll always be here for you whenever you need me.
SpoilerThe Grand Elder was truly missed on the Ireland Trip! Wish you the best in life bud.
SpoilerYou’re one of my oldest friends on this server and I’ll truly never cease to cherish you and your many talents. I hope we’ll be friends for many years to come and I wish that life will treat you fairly from now on. We started a journey on Athera and while our chapter at its helm is over we still have each other.
SpoilerI’ve known you since you were just a kid and now you’re an adult. Time truly goes fast huh? I can remember it like it was yesterday when I was building an underwater library on Crafthammer with you. I’m proud to be able to call you my friend and I wish you the best in life.
SpoilerMy favourite faucet boxing madman there’s no one on this server that could replace you in my heart. If you ever needed me I’d cross borders to help you. We started a journey together as strangers and today you’re closer to me than most. I really hope the new year treats you well and with respect. (let’s try and keep you out of prison)
SpoilerYou’re my favourite Barnett never forget
SpoilerYou’ve ever since your entrance into my life been one of the kindest and gentles people I’ve ever met. You make me believe in tomorrow and remind me of the good there is in the world. By far one of my closest friends and confidantes as well as one of my most beloved. Know that no matter what you need of me I’ll be there to help you. May the new year treat you with warmth and kindness.
SpoilerPut on Boromir’s lament, have you put it on yet? Are you ready? I’m waiting…. Alright, you’re on of my best friends we had our ups and downs. While there was a time where you didn’t trust me I never blamed you. I would question much when some of my friends betrayed me over a game. I am glad though that today we can stand here shoulder by shoulder. If you ever wished to create yourself a Rohan or any type of LoTR themed culture you’ll have my blade. I wish you the best in all things my friend.
SpoilerI watched you grow up and I hope your life is as prosperous as possible. I’ve always wished you the best and should you ever need me you know where to find me.
SpoilerYou’re one of my oldest friends around these parts and we’ve shared so many good moments together. We’ve come far from those days and I can only hope that there will be more. I thank you for all you’ve given me so far and I hope your life is a good one. Should you ever need me I am always here for you.
SpoilerBlue Bird will never be forgotten and I really wish you the best.
SpoilerYou’ve grown from a really spergy little squeaker to a fellow man and I’m very proud of you. I hope your school treats you well and that your studies are successful. If you ever need me don’t be afraid to ask.
SpoilerWhile we’ve had our differences over the years you’ve grown into someone I can respect. I only hope you remember to be humble and treat those you near kindly. In life, I wish you nothing but the best and if you ever need me don’t be a stranger.
SpoilerI’m extremely proud of what you managed to accomplish with a project I worked many a year on. It was an unbelievable enjoyment to meet you and many more in Ireland. I wish you the best in life and happiness to be worthy and yours.
SpoilerI’ll let you keep our son for the holidays. Also, I guess you’re okay...
SpoilerI’m proud of what you’ve accomplished and wish you the best.
@Dale
SpoilerYou’ve done so many things for a project I spent many of my years on. I hope you continue to enjoy it and give others happiness. I wish you a new year filled with happiness and joy.
SpoilerWhile I’m no longer around and RPing I’ve kept hearing good things from others. I’m happy to see that you continue to bring happiness to those around you and truly wish you the best in life.
@Captain Haense/Bub
SpoilerI’ll bub you until you’ll never bub again xoxo ❤️
SpoilerI would like to thank you for everything you did for me this year and I always believed in you. Just know that if you ever need help I’ll always be here.
SpoilerI hope everything is well in life and that your studies are successful. If you ever need to talk you know where to find me.
@sir_niccum
SpoilerSpoilerIf you ever need me I hope you know where to find me. I also hope that your passion for music is still well and healthy do send me a few videos!
@khan
SpoilerSpoilerI’ll keep it short and sweet. Thanks for every good moment this year and if you ever need me just know that I’m here.
SpoilerI’m extremely proud of what you’ve accomplished this year and hope that you are well. Let the new year bring you a lot of happiness and joy. Eat onions in my name gremlin.
SpoilerYou’ll always be the most ROYAL of FALCONERS
@Tom/Gopnik
SpoilerI really hope this new year will treat you well and if you ever need me I’m just a call away my guy.
SpoilerI miss you bud hope you’re doing well.
SpoilerYou always have a special place in my heart as one of the most genuine, kind, nice and friendly people on this server. We’ve had our differences as all do over the years but I have always wished for your success. I hope the new year treats you well and fair.
SpoilerI congratulate you on your kingship and i’m happy to see such a good person lead the fair nation. I wish to remind you to stay humble and down to earth. To those around you be a model and mentor while accepting of your own mistakes and inabilities. There are none on this earth that is perfect and thus none that expect you to be. It is good to grow but should you ever feel yourself change for the worse it is a dire sign to leave a way for the next generation. Let I and my predecessors mistakes be your learning experience. I wish you the best in life and know that I’ll always be here should you need me.
SpoilerYou’re one of my oldest friends and I’m glad to see that life is doing you decent. While we’ve not talked much in times most recent let me wish for you a most fantastic new year, one born of good experiences and much filled with happiness.
@Quinn
SpoilerI’m extremely proud of what you’ve accomplished and really wish you the best come the future.
(Probably missed a good few but those are all I can remember in one sitting)
LAST BUT NOT LEAST
SpoilerI wish to thank you for everything you’ve done for all of us and truly hope your life is filled with happiness.
SpoilerWe’ve had our differences this year but beneath it all, we both share a love for this server and its community. Don’t forget to speak with the rest of the staff before taking too big a decision, we’re in this together.
SpoilerWhile it may not always be obvious because of my rather dark humour and overall sarcastic nature. I am glad to see you at the helm and happy to see the progress you’ve driven forth. Keep up the good work and I truly wish you the best new year. (Admin btw)
SpoilerYou’ve grown a lot since we first met and i’m glad to see you where you are today. I hear many speak of you well on your team and they hope for a bright future. Let’s work together to make projects successful and better unlike never before. I, of course, wish you the best in life and should you ever need me I’m just a call away.
SpoilerThanks for everything you’ve done for the server this year and I hope we can continue to trust you with the burdens thrust onto you.
@flamboyant
SpoilerKeep up the good work and I hope the lore games can be moved past sometime soon so we can focus on other projects.
SpoilerIn a time where we needed you more than ever before you never failed to shine at your brightest. I am happy to share this community with you and proud to know that you’ll keep the server healthy and safe(without the safety teams help).
@topaz
SpoilerWhile we’ve not spoke I’ve heard only good things and I am glad that you’re here for the server in this troublesome time. I am looking forward to seeing what you’ll bring to the fold.

@Rickson all creatures on the beastiary have clarification on if they can be played or not by players. The bestiary doesn’t only seek to provide parameters for players but also for the ET to use for events.
TL:DR some of them there ain’t able to be played by players.

@Knightie with Telanir’s new rules we are limited in how many people are allowed on the team as a whole. The people who are currently under review and interview are of course going to be given a chance. We would, however, had liked to recruit more of them than we’re allowed to.

Hi Luv, I’m not sure what you mean by ski_king3 situation.
I believe, as it was a few years ago, I had a hand in putting him down, permanently. And, in addition, he never has a place back here. It was the moment I found out. However, I never found out that it was you who he abused. Lark is right and I believe he has provided other avenues in addition to the meagre ban we can offer from our server for what he did.
I am sorry that this happened and I am glad I took action when I did. And, I would like to comment on the “rep farm”—I don’t believe any one on team has made such a remark, and I heavily disagree with the notion. I personally have respect for the people who (with consent from the victim) sought out public support. If this notion has spread it would be misinformation as far as I know.
Along with the changes I mentioned in my post, I hope we can continue down that route and make LotC a place of safety for people of all backgrounds, creeds, and ages. We must resolve problems with sexual abuse, but also with radical sentiment and discrimination. If there are any suggestions, please quote my post and recommend them, thank you.
They are talking about this

History
The Birth of the Mali’thilln | Establishment of Elcihi’thilln
Bygone were the days of Malin, no more were the times of united elveness. Larihei lead the Thilln to their inevitable future, destined was the creation of Haelun’or; motherland now and forever. With her that of the more historically highlighted were gathered, Sullas, Thar, Acal’aelor and the now ‘ata Izalith. Yet in the background were characters of less renown, people moved by maehr’sae hiylun’ehya; for not all had interest in fleeting power -- or direct influence in society and its many facets. These very many a mali, but for the context of this account one need only focus upon one; Finris Haterin. While others in their past forms had focused on the wisdoms of Malin, frolicked and upon the world bore children; this man was only lead by one singular charge. The unraveling of The Cataclysm, of which an eternal void had left in everyone's minds. His was not a Talonni for he was alone, his generation the first of the Mali; only humbled by Malin. While many thought of him an eccentric, his passion in pursuit of truth; wisdom and knowledge -- that which even the elves had forgotten never wavered. Upon a visit to Larihei’s library in search of further material, even the maiden herself had him acknowledged; these were mere remarks -- yet to the eccentric anything can heed their loyalties.
In time while Malin still ruled he searched ruins, battlefields and any remnants that existed. In them based upon observation, logical foresight, record and undeniable fact -- conclusions drew hypothesis and they in turn theory. This itself birthed a profession, one still to this day unacknowledged by most; bringing little regard from the circles of the wise. The science known as Archaeology was from his eccentrics born, yet his patience and knowledge was not to be scoffed at. Today we his Talonni call it inder’indeal, for history is a book with no end -- as eternal is our charge. With frequent visits his physical state had changed, his eyes a deepened azure; though his hair still remained darkened they grew brighter. His locks taking on the now recognizable grey, for in this era long since passed; very few had the fair white of Larihei.
Though his patience deepend with each bath, so did his eccentric mannerisms. When Malin’s old woods were to be lost to the now Thilln, he was slow to move -- projects unfinished. Hypothesis yet to turn to theory, his work and all that which he had grown accustomed; for the common Thilln had much more to lose. In these times not all had influence of which to gather strength from, stability to keep one's two feet firm. Yet dragged by a few thoughtful he was not left behind, to become a victim of rising tensions. Though a kind gesture Finris would describe it as anything but, yet I argue this thought highly illogical -- perhaps the onset rambles of our accursed aged insanity. But there he was when the city rose its lofty spires, where maehr’sae hiylun’ehya had found at last a home.
The Schism | ‘Ata Lomal The Accursed
Days turned into weeks, weeks into months and months into years it was in such the pursuit of maehr’sae hiylun’ehya; was tarnished by the first ‘ata. In pursuit of progress he had forgotten health, though by the ramblings of Finris the boy was nothing but too prideful. His words were more accurately portrayed by profanities unbefitting of Thilln. It should then be clear that were it not for fates mechanisms, this ‘ata and his exile; induced by the bereft of the lives of two old. Then our fair people might still have in their midst the maiden of which our fairness stems from. This ‘ata, Lomal now known as “The Accursed” had no respect for his kind; unable to tell the difference between disagreement and distaste. But in this time most historical, Finris had little involvement. It was to him a time of studying and perfecting of his newfound profession, mastering his art.
In elcihi he lived in its farthest flung corner, far away from where the divide formed; as walls were raised he find only further sanctity in his library -- his passionate projects. Unbeknownst to him was the corruption of the ‘ata and the spreading influence of the Daemon Tayl. Though by his own accounts he wasn’t “unaware” but rather too busy progressing the maehr’sae hiylun’ehya -- to spend time on such “civilities”. He seems to personally feel the ‘ata rude for intruding on his studies, of which I told him was a childish notion; only to further be admonished. While my personal mindful thoughts seem more clear, one cannot tamper with the eccentric; extending only the belief that my maln left the land -- begrudgingly only not to die. Had he perhaps not been a man of his craft, it would not have surprised me if he would had remained as one of the Vihai. I suppose I have this fact to thank for my own existence, for such is fate -- weaved as though with intention yet not.
The New Beginnings | Aegis Once More
Through the portal half were unaccounted and equally so was Larihei, even the staunchest puritan weeped; were it not for the eccentric few perhaps a flood might have formed. Though while the man that told me these facts has a flare for dramatics, I for one find it degrading. I wager that there were many reasons for emotional outburst. The families torn apart, those dead not to also mention the loss of our most beloved maiden -- fair and foresighted. Out of the few who had collected minds and emotions, this land was not unfamiliar; it was the land of Archaic Aegis. In its woods the mali born as well as their father Malin, his brothers influence still alive and remaining here. Yet even his kind was present, thus mali of all kinds found once more themselves in one and the same place. Their fates once again intertwined, like pieces on chessboard their journey laid out before them.
The New Beginnings | Heritage Rediscovered
While generations had passed and some had passed onto the great beyond, some had forgotten their origins; unlearned of Larihei’s truth of which our society is founded upon. The few who remembered were a minority or in the case of Finris, were too busy with their profession; their art. To them the thirst for knowledge side lining them from the sight of certain parents incapability in upbringing. However the course of times will would have this changed, for Aegis was not fated to last; its land sinking and the descendants long since left. In Asulon answers to age old questions were open for answers, Thilln ruins strewn throughout; their cultural heritage remained strong and bright. In their presence was the everlasting ideology of Larihei that of maehr’sae hiylun’ehya. With the past rekindled, passions for sovereignty reaffirmed. The Thilln once again gathered in the Motherland -- in Haelun’or. It was in this place he would find his flame, one eccentric perhaps even more than himself; of the opposite gender and of which he would be wed. While history can confirm itself long past this point, so as well is that of my maln much longer than what is accounted for. I must cut short, for I intend to release instead a greater work -- more extensive and conclusive in a more appropriate place.

Appearance and Traits
SpoilerWhile our shade of skin fluxuates between healthy pinks and puritan pale, one will seldom not find an Aldin without a grayed hairline; of which grows darker with age. With the rarity of a far flung puritan can a brighter blonde perhaps be found, but it is highly unlikely; as our features are most dominant -- and logically transferred through the generations.
Our eyes are of a deepend azure or a purple shade, depending on the strength of heritage from either line. The blue a predominant Haterin feature while the Aldin puritan has lighter or darker shades of purple. Thus one can easily denote the features of the main caste of the Talonni, for most Finris-born are a darkened blue.
The common Aldin has hints of eccentric mannerisms, while having an odd efficiency in pursuit of knowledge. They wear oft earthly colors with hints of red or blue, dependant on the character of the wearer. In the end common professions range from the family founding Archaeology or the more common botany and arts of the pen and paper.

The Light So Pure
For Its Serenity Unlike Any
“During the blossoming night sky, littered with stars and lights unknown; something trails from that which lies beyond.”
In the far skies of Arcas a burning light and its tail trails down the ever-dark. The stars pale in their splendor and the vast black and blue, is brightened as though to repel the darkness. Its path cast from the far north to the far south, striking past Cloud Temple and Helena; before finally fizzling out above The Silver City. Unbeknownst to those not within the cities confines the very plateau quaked and shook, windows heaving a heavy rattle. As parents brought their children to whatever safety they could offer them, sillumir and brave elves gathered at the quakes source. There beneath the statue of Larihei a purple light began to crackle into existence, from its bosom two beaks puncture; with delight and anguish in grand contrast. As their wormlike forms and bodies which held many an eye came into view, they circled at the portal edge. The elves of many different a caste looked in awe and worry alike. With a strained stop the worms eyes came to a clear open, every single one small or large; tears of blood running from their greened sclera. From their beaky maws came an outburst of foreign language unknown to all present “Drak’thul” the entities cried in unison. Before questions could be raised, as though their stay had been overdue; wormy beaks and all drilled into the purple portal. Their wiggling tails the last thing seen before the gateway collapsed like sparks struck off an anvil. In their wake only a dark-purple rock was left, as though they hadn’t noticed it before.

As the days go by many a magical phenomena takes place in The Silver City and once even in Llyria. The minds of citizens and visitors alike are infiltrated by emotions, heart beats, whimpers and for the most part a calm serenity and its humble tune. Many other oddities take place yet are kept from the public eye, those that visit the city hear the elves speak of a rock; it is quite obvious as never would an elf have been so excited over a mere stone. Many a mage visits the city and all that leave seem either excited or worried, but most clearly of all; drained and exhausted. As the weeks and months begin to pass, little over half a year; those with magics of any kind in Arcas feel their mind beckoned. It like a humble whisper within whispers, gentle warmth like that of a mother's touch; thoughts clearly not their own seeping in. It seems not invasive or aggressive, yet no matter by what means it cannot be stopped. The whisper grows clearer as one nears The Silver City, turning into a hum undecipherable yet ever-calming.

In Search of Malin
“For his grace is undescribable.”
In the cloud temple a common curator begins to showcase one of his findings, allowing people to read its contents. Though he does allude to the fact that he knows the location where the object was found he seems reluctant to say where it was. Perhaps only time will convince him that he won’t find anything else without help from the descendants. The field journal reads as follows below.
Date, 1st of Sun’s Smile, 1605
I have arrived on this ancient land and have viewed many of its monoliths made in a bygone era. In the lands from whence I came i’ve left my offspring and on the same year my last son was born ablessed upon the land. Yet here I stand at 616 years of age, in search of my selfish endeavours. The lands I was born in has long since fallen to the accursed. My offsprings birthplace no less uninhabitable either, yet its aftertaste only makes me think Iblees did more than just curse our anatomy. I write not in hope of someone finding me, but rather to aid those in search of our father as I am. For I was at least blessed enough to bask in his presence in the past, as did I meet Urguan and Krug. If it wasn’t for the clear remaining presence and several findings pointing to this place, then I would have never came here. It certainly is a historical place, its foreign histories are naught things that many else than a few remember. For the land is mostly roamed by spirits of the past, those trapped as a consequence of ancient war. Yet somehow, part of me can tell that there are still inhabitants of this land, though i’ve yet to find any living my senses tells me otherwise. It might be the ruins who have not long abandoned camps or fireplaces clearly recently used. What could have survived that which wrought havoc upon the descendants?
My ship is in disrepair and I cannot say i’m knowledgeable in shipwriting nor do I know if shipwrights even call this place home. For all I have seen so far is many a ship, wrecked upon the craggy bottoms of the tumultuous sea. I must make it further inland, lest I lose Malin’s trail and must start all over again; for it wouldn’t be the first time I had been forced into such a corner. Though I am uncertain why he has made it this far away from elveness I cannot exclude the possibilities that it entails. It should at least be a much simpler pursuit as in lands more clearly inhabited he steers clear of the descendants. In this land he has seemingly walked much more freely, though as ever cautious as he is beknown to be.
I sometimes wonder if any would understand my plight? To search for our father as I have, in hopes to have him finally return to us and bring elveness together as one. To settle his fair childrens nonsensical disputes and petty squabbles, for I tire of the ceaseless fighting. If any truly believed in our fathers guidance then the death of our kin is a mortal sin. His magics have been bastardized, his ideology ultimately split into pieces and his disciples lead astray to form their own subcategories of our fair folk. What shall be next? Fire elves? Moon elves? Blue elves? This simper of a joke must cease for it is the expression of the deceiver.
I can tell that our father has followed the rivers of old, perhaps to reminisce in the ruins of his people. Where he has gone from there I am not entirely certain as of now, but I leave here a copy of my findings; in hopes that other mali may find it useful. That my efforts might not be wasted and that we may all be reunited with our father in the near future.
But… ….. to.. ..o….
The bottom of the writing seems faded, almost as though done on purpose but it’d seem to have signs of warnings left for the receiver.

Treacherous Is Time
“One cannot escape it.”
“Past me the wells of time quicken, in this wildland i’m stuck and from memory stricken.”
Perilous is the journey we all take, for this place has no merciful tale to tell. In these lands mostly abandoned that I call now home. I search for the unsearchable, finding only the comforts of the self in my failures. The land littered by ruins long since abandoned and barely standing the tests of time. The waters beckon for the mouths which once held their thirst, trees sway to winds that once nestled between the hairs of the ancient peoples. But now it stands barren, land without purpose, land without faith. Monuments that stood harald to the era long passed; either crumbled into ruin or its many cracks overgrown with moss and mushroom. The wood welcomes back that it once lost, while the creatures of the wild mock the lost.
I stand here in a world long forgotten but with ancient history, alone, abandoned and forgotten. Things are silent, silence infest silence and as though whispers within whispers and through tongues yet not tongues the eerie reality settles. Have I failed my last? Have I not the chance to correct my mistakes? Am I as lonely as i’ve come to believe? While my thoughts wander the hairs on my back shiver in fear, my spine and cranium tingles as though bewatched; my throat parched and unprepared for words to flow. Is my existence not as unknown as I had thought? Am I not a mere leaf in the wind?
These subtle greeneries are endless, Malin.. this one only wishes to see you this last once. To have you speak your somber tunes for my long ears to hold comfort. For my peoples father to embosom me as I draw my last. I shared in your wisdom once, your mind so bright yet the past had you left disheveled and wounded. If it wasn’t for the trails you left, for your remaining presence I follow.. I would have thought you gone and myself a fool. Is this land what you saw last? Is this where you are? Sitting beneath a tree, in thought as you was last we met upon an ancient field. Nature whispers yet I hear not what it says, I may be blessed but the worlds spirit has long since had me abandoned.
O’ father of my people, why must you hide from your own kind? Perhaps I know the answer, but I am unwilling to accept its truth divine. The trees curve at your path, as though they know you well. Yet to me they stand only straight and poised, almost as though defiant to my presence. Why was it here you went and what did you come to find or see? I am old beyond my years, yet even I cannot find logic in any of this.. for if there is any it's beyond me. These shores sing of long ears, the ruins half buried in sand proof of your children. Is it the wandering ghosts I have met on my travels that interest you? Is their ultimate curse what has earned your empathy? The betrayal that was to them unbeknownst?
I shall find you one day, may the light shine upon my gray hair at the time. For now I have only time, time to travel, time to unravel and time to have your trail to tell its tale.
Let us sit beneath the blue sky…..
Let us peer at the stars while I see your smile…….
Let me see you safe in these mortal lands we were both birthed in……..
“In midsummer we found joy and you spread your wings, dancing amongst the great wood which has always called you King.”

“It seems you valah are incapable of reading, seeing as I never claimed it unknown and infact quite the opposite. I believe my exact words were ‘Though I don’t speak the ancient language and very few do nowadays’. I suppose by definition the clergy of the church would be the ‘very few’ i’m refering to as well as private enthusiasts.”

“Norlandic propaganda. Horen never fucked a dragon thank you very much.” Tylos says as he ponders where he heard of a name like Aevan running around with dragons before.
“Also that language is not little known, it’s Flexio, the entire Church speaks it. The tomb reads something along the lines of: ‘Here lies Aevan of New Carrandal, commanding general of under the sign of the Second Dragon, champion of Horen, defender of mankind’. The fact that author is trying to pass off basic Flexio as some unknown and forgotten language is further proof that he’s merely trying to pull the wool over people’s eyes. This ‘Aevan’ has never been mentioned anywhere else, a bit strange that this general would be seen as Horen's number 2 and manage to fly off to some new continent a million miles away, and yet never neither he himself nor the continent he found were mentioned in recorded history. Seems far more likely that this archaologist is just faking finds for more funding, or to further some agenda.” He’d continue.
“I am neither valah nor does the common valah speak the language either, it seems rather you draw your own interpretation of my words meaning. Nor did I call the language unknown or forgotten, though it is quite obvious by your account that you’re not a man interested in the truth. But rather to obstinate over your own prideful beliefs, one simple trip could easily confirm my findings. Then again I suppose you valah have always been prone to assumption based on your emotionaly borne state. It is not lost on me that there are several speakers of Flexio, clearly as I asked for persons knowing in the language to contact me.”

The Ruinous City
“Aevan de nova”
Preface
This analysis carries no proven theorem and is entirely hypothetical; thus conclusions should not be established as fact until proven so. The basis of my work is on clear material remains or artifacts, while also heavily investigating the remaining structures; it also tries to demystify the mural work and supplement with the few remaining linguistic artifacts. I once again express my clarity on the matter that this is a hypothesis, don’t regard yourself a expert on fact by learning the knowledge herein.
Corvac Aldin
Hypothesis
Wandering upon the ancient lithic ruins, it becomes clear that these are ancient vestiges and remnant diagnostic artifacts. The pale and eroded lithic material strikes clear resemblance to the original cultures and heritages of Aegis, where the four brothers built their paramount states. This a tradition further carried on by the Cloud Temple monks to wherever we next settle, thus this should be no surprise to any with keen observability. This denotes either a connection to Aegis proper or clear connection to its period, though perhaps and more likely is the case that both these connections are at play here. Through the ruinous remnants around the base of the main structure; which can be concluded upon its size and position. It is with the remnants in place and assumption of its once former; much grander structure one can assume it was a citadel or core seat of the state. Sadly our interference has made the furbishment within the main structures confines mostly unrecognizable. Thus more cannot be garnered by its decor else than its purple and black flooring. If the size of the halls and their pristine state is anything to go by; it is that they were clearly made of the finest material and most skilled hands of the time.
On the walls of the nearby structures are what remains of the mural work, these show carvings of dragons, large valah armies, as well as banners with the Horenic keepsake just aforementioned. Following a path leading to the direct left leading out of the main structure, one will find that at its top; past extensive mural work a tomb sits still in situ. It is on this tomb the words ‘Hic icaet magna Aevan de Nova Carrandal, generalis dominus in signum quod draco secundi, vindicem horen, me defensorum hominum.’ Though I don’t speak the ancient language and very few do nowadays, some words translation is not lost upon me as I can reference previous work. In Atlas we were all made aware of the Vaeyl Order, though few of us unraveled its secrets; many were known to its inner workings and core history. Thus one can garner that this text is not only carved on a gravestone, but also a monument which speaks of achievements. The words “Magna Aevan de Nova” stands out, speaking of a Great New Aevan what one might currently assume is the ancient settlements name. While words like “Generalis draco secundi” speaks of a general of the dragons second, which if connected with the closeness of Atlas and the Vaeyl most certainly speaks of the second banner of Horens grand army. Thus as Vaeyl was the leader of his banner, one can assume that whoever lies here is equivalent to him in rank and import.
Then by analysing these contents one can come to quick understanding on certain, easily perceivable historic facts. The armies of Horen were active in this area, from the mural work that much is obvious. In these works one can clearly see that these valah were in fact warring against the uruk, which should stand as no surprise with Vaeyl history as reference. It would not be to my surprise that this army had followed the uruk, in an attempt to avenge Horen after Krugs heinous crime. To me it is clear that the natural terrain create appropriate defences as well as a key position for the control of the continent, thus making Aevan the likely seat of this human civilization.
Further down the slopes of Aevan we can find buildings set on the precipice of waterways as well as further remnants of ancient monuments. It is here that one in specific stands out, carved with a never before seen symbol of a sun with wings; while the words ‘Glorian Aevan, Glorian Horen and Glorian Hominum.’ is clearly written into the lithic work. As certain words of the ancient language has changed little we can tell that the monument speaks about glory, Aevan and Horen though I myself know not the ancient word of Hominum I ask any people who speak Flexio for translation to contact me on the nature of its true meaning. This monument however does clearly satisfy much of the foundation of my hypothesis, clearly these men were zealous. It would be no surprise for a army directly beneath one of the four brothers to be zealous, nor that they’d wish glory upon both their ‘Aevan’ and horen. Thus to no surprise is Horen mentioned after this ‘Aevan’, another sign of militaristic natures as soldiers often speak of what is to them the closest at hand; what decides the fate of their livelihood.
I will further study the nearby ruins across Arcas and try to find further materials and artifacts in hopes to substantiate my hypothesis into theorem. These works will be published as well to the public and I myself will provide a original book, to rest within the confines of the Eternal Library.
Conclusion
New Aevan was Arcas human seat of power, controlled by the second dragon banner of Horen; lead by perhaps a man called Aevan and being the city namesake. They themselves have their own key symbol just as the Vaeyl had theirs, a sun with wings spread at its sides. This second banner followed and fought in either one or many wars against the uruk. Likely in response to the killing of Horen and to avenge his death; similarly to what the Vaeyl had done in the distant past. In this fight much land was claimed and this second banner settled at this strategic point in an attempt to control the rest of the continent. It would also substantiate that Arcas proper is a ancient battlefield, or at least that at its peak it was a war torn continent.
Alternatively I offer another hypothesis that they fought the uruk before Horens death and it only intensified after his death. That perhaps they had other devices for coming to the land, finding their long standing enemy here and to protect or in an attempt to claim their objective they fought.
Postface
I call for those of honorable positions in their specified fields to contact me should they have any valuable information to further the hypothesis or have it counteracted. I publish this publically in the hopes that the truth may be found, that knowledge may be preserved and recovered. That it awakens in you the furious thirst to find yourself in pursuit of the scholarly arts and its professions. I hope further that this finds you well enticed and perhaps that my approach may shed further light upon this land of which we settle.
