Mulkister

Mulkister was a gnome city founded in the year 249 of the Age of Veradorianis by Fecix. It survived for millennia, in many ways due to its fortunate positioning. Originally positioned near the western border of Kralgtarn, many major cities sprung up around it over the ages, such as Arvenlaad and Corvisburg.
==Kralgtarn Civil War (356 AoV)==
One winter in 355 AoV, Kralg II fell ill with an unknown sickness. It chilled his blood and weakened his body, and he went into solitude, being seen only by his physicians. At the same time, the first okk’are had come westward, and were blamed by many for Kralg’s illness. The gnomes of Mulkister, under Fecix, thought that was insane and befriend the elves, taking them in.
Guhlkarn, a loyal city of ogres and orcs, launched an attack on Mulkister. Civil war broke out in Kralgtarn. Mulkister seceded and the gnomes and elves fought against the forces of Guhlkarn. Eventually the elves decided that they could no longer burden the gnomes with losses on their behalf. They traveled to the foothills of Arvenlaad and hid in the forest, setting up sites that would eventually become Alvestrin.
When Kralg II finally succumbed to his illness, more than one healer cited the stress of his kingdom falling apart as a barrier to his recovery. Guhlkarn was shunned by the rest of Kralgtarn and fell into ignominy and ruin. Mulkister endured and thrived in its independence as it developed close ties with Arvenlaad and Alvestrin.
