Naldamar Larendian

Naldamar and Tiril Larendian were twin saris'are brothers born to Astrelia Aeryn and Lathos Larendian. They became the heirs of Lystrum and all of Daromir.
Naldamar and Tiril fell out during their adolescence for reasons no longer known. What is known is that Naldamar's daughter Salaeyn favored her uncle above her father. Tiril left the city of Lystrum and to the south founded the twin city of Astrelis, named for their deceased mother. Salaeyn went with her uncle under the cover of night, and in his rage over his "missing" daughter, Naldamar declared war on his brother's city.
==The Elfkings' War (608-612 AoV)==
The war dragged on for years with arcane magic being a more common weapon than swords or bows. Daromir was devastated and barren within a few short years. Nothing would grow, and more effort was taken to import food from outer Phaelyn than fighting. The people lost heart and loyalty, and whispers of coups were heard in both cities.
==Tiril's Folly (612 AoV)==
In an attempt to gain mastery over hydromancy to revive the land, sustain his people, and (if needed) flood his brother's strongholds, Tiril attempted to summon Milvaneris herself to Daromir and merge with her. The attempt went horribly awry, and rifts to the Plane of Water exploded throughout Phaelyn. The planetwide underground waterway—the Darkwater Road—was created. The magical cataclysm rocked Phaelyn and tore the very fabric of magic there. Most all of Tiril’s folk were taken by the waters and flung out across the Deep on the Darkwater Road. They became the saris’drow, more commonly called dark elves. Neither brother ever learned that Salaeyn Larendian became the first of their kind and never attempted to return to Phaelyn.
As another unprecedented side effect, the magical cataclysm sealed Naldamar and Tiril in time, to emerge again every 500 years and resume the Elfkings’ War.
