Jelestal Egéna

**Jelestal Egéna** is a queen of Dael.

## Biography

Jelestal was born in 643 BA, the daughter of Jemessan of Dael. She was the heir to the throne. In 668 BA, the then-Princess Jelestal was pregnant with her heir. Her son was stillborn, killed by a chimera. Around this time, she gave birth to a daughter, Meriel, who was secretly taken away to an obscure village.

During the war between Dael and Méor, Jelestal's husband fought on the Morsearn Field, where he was among those frozen in time by Desmer. Jelestal remained in her capital city, Tarhanen, during the war, and was there when the city fell to Desmer's army. When Desmer entered the Beryl Palace, Jelestal and her three children were brought before him. She watched as her children were executed one by one in front of her, to bring about the end of her line. Before she herself died, Jelestal requested that her red necklace be removed before her sentence, so as not to sully it with her blood.

Anternien (chapter)

**Anternien** is the thirteenth chapter of The Forge of the Magus. It was released on Scribblehub on 13th September 2022.

## Synopsis

On their journey north from Carhavel, Percy Oddell and his companions are met by a carriage driver, who offers them a ride. It's now pouring rain and they are getting drenched. Percy negotiates a fee with the carriage driver, at an extortionate rate, before Gurdagam stabs the driver. Gurdagam points out that a real driver would never travel between towns in the rain, on the chance at finding passengers in the rain, and it was more likely he was a bandit.

They ride the rest of the way to Anternien, where Percy is met by the captain of the gate Jac Rendas. Percy informs Rendas that Carhavel has fallen. Rendas agrees, reluctantly, to take Percy and the others for an audience with the King. As they pass through Anternien they go by the bodies of several criminals, executed and on display. Alis recognises one of them and causes a scene. She is apprehended and arrested by some of Rendas' guards. Percy doesn't interfere. It's more important to get access to Pardasath.

Descard II of Tuiar

**Descard II** is the king of Tuiar. He forbade his vassals, such as Fargen Huide, from armouring any soldiers but their personal guard in their own house colours.

## Biography

Descard was, like a lot of his ancestors, a keen hunter. He kept a stable in the north-east corner of Carhavel, close to a postern gate called the King's gate, where he had horses for easy access to hunts in the land around the city. By his proclamation, it was a criminal offence punishable by death to post bills undermining his authority. He had a strong distaste for the Magi, stemming from the death of his sister Embra in the Octal Tower.

He hosted Percy Oddell and his companions from the Carhavel guard, though he was dismissive of Percy's concerns about the Outlander army. His attendant Magus at the time was Telsa Cannaldan, and Descard expressed his desire to marry Telsa - whether she consented to the arrangement or not.

Tarhanen

**Tarhanen** is a city in the Marcher kingdom of Dael, in the Grasp. As the capital of the kingdom, Tarhanen is the seat of the royal family, and home to the Beryl Palace. The day-to-day business of the city is handled by the Steward of Tarhanen, a position currently held by House Entane.

The architecture of Tarhanen, with the exception of the Beryl Palace itself, is primarily high white walls with blue tiled roofs, decorated with an abundance of arches and roundels.

## History

Tarhanen was the site of the first battle of Desmer's invasion, in 684 BA. The city garrison surrendered within hours, when Desmer's armies fired their arrows over the heads of the defenders on the Tarhanen wall to kill civilians inside the city instead. Following the fall of the city, Desmer had the ruling House Egéna brought before him, and executed them.

After the fall of the city, refugees spilled forward, spreading news of the invasion as far as Carhavel.

The cover image for the book

**The Forge of the Magus** is a fantasy novel by Alexandrina Wilson, originally published on the online platform Scribblehub in 2022. The prologue went live on August 2, 2022. Chapters were released on Tuesdays and Fridays at 6pm UK time.

## Synopsis

*[Taken from the novel's Scribblehub page]*

"The kingdoms of the Grasp have existed for centuries in an unsteady peace, held in deadlock by the power of the Magi in their heart and the inhospitable realms of savages on their perimeters. And through it all, they've thought this would be the way of things forever. But an outlander invades from the south, swiftly conquering the border realms, and declaring himself to be the Chosen One of prophecy—and suddenly that enduring status quo does not seem so secure.

Meanwhile, a girl from an obscure village finds herself thrust into the wider world, right into the heart of rising danger in a land slowly falling to chaos."

## Chapters

In addition, an Appendix was released alongside Chapter 8 on August 26, 2022.
Meriel's father

> My father wasn't cruel to me on the day he died. He was cruel to me every other day of my entire life.
>
> Meriel

**Meriel's father** is a man resident in the Village. The father of Meriel, he is occupied as a farmer.

## Biography

The firstborn daughter of Queen Jelestal Egéna of Dael was born a chimera. For her own safety she was removed from Dael and sent to live in an out of the way village. The man was the only person who volunteered to take her in. In Meriel's childhood, he read to her every night. Whenever she expressed interest in the magic of the stories she heard, he assured her that magic didn't exist. His education of his daughter extended to teaching her the night's stars, though he never taught her to read - regarding it as an unnecessary skill for women. He forbade her from going too close to Telis Heddorel, an outsider who lived on the edge of the Village. He also forbade her from going too close to the river Jale. Like most in the Village, he never spoke of Meriel's mother, except to tell her on occasion that her mother was dead.

Once Meriel grew older, he excused her from helping him on the fields. In return, she was to do the household chores and prepare a meal for him of an evening when he returned home. He did not like Meriel spending too much time in the inn. When he saw Meriel wearing a red-stone necklace she had taken from Telis Heddorel's house, he flew into a rage. Drawing his sword, he attempted to kill Meriel. He died when, in his efforts, he was accidentally impaled upon his own sword. Meriel sat with his body until the morning; when Telis Heddorel arrived, she hid the body with magic so it would not be found for a time.

During their journey through the Salted Lands, Cad Mathe suggested that Meriel's father may have been bewitched by Telis to kill her. Meriel doesn't believe it because her father was always cruel to her, and Telis wasn't.

Elemental Lords

The **Elemental Lords** are beings who reside in the Elemental Realms. They crave nothing more than to be able to touch the mortal world, which they ordinarily cannot do. According to popular lore, Jothe Egéna made a pact with the Elemental Lords that resulted in the deposition of King Fariel Torven. In return for this service rendered, the Lords conjured up a gleaming capstone that would become the centerpiece of the Beryl Palace.
Ewlan Haughtry

**Ewlan Haughtry** is the master-at-arms of Pardasath Palace.

## Biography

Haughtry served under Queen Thalia and later her successor King Descard II. He knew Captain Indicar of Carhavel, though Indicar was privately frustrated with Haughtry. He was, alongside Jarm Traene, an important part of King Descard's household, expected to dine alongside the King.

## Physical description

Ewlan Haughtry is a great hulk of a man with a thick grey moustache.

## Personality

Haughtry disagrees with the idea of women ruling. This belief is derived from his years serving Tuiar under its regnant Queen Thalia, who died slowly of grief.

Tuiar

**Tuiar** is one of the kingdoms of the Grasp. The colours of Tuiar are pale blue, and their emblem is a boar's head with a broken tusk. King Descard II prevented his vassal lords from armouring more than a handful of personal retainers in the colours of their own house.

## History

In around 659 BA, the Margrave of Sephal - then a mark within Tuiar - fought and won a war of independence. This greatly diminished the size of Tuiar's standing army. Tuiar has not seen fighting since.

## Geography

Tuiar borders the southern Marcher kingdoms, Dael and Méor. It is home to the River Rhaddan, and often sees trade via the river from the Marcher kingdoms. Towards the southern portion of Tuiar sits the city of Carhavel, famed for its whitestone constructions and the Bastions built on its city wall.

The **Otenlan abomination** is a monstrosity encountered by Telis Heddorel and her charges as they made their way through the Salted Lands. Physically, it is a mass of dark flesh, slimy, with a rough opening for a mouth. It has long black limbs, which it can swing very powerfully. Arrows seem to have no effect on it. It was defeated only by the strength of Telis Heddorel's magic, and even then it required enough to drive her to the brink, merely to banish it.

Alis Mardaise

**Alis Mardaise** is a thief active in Carhavel. In 684 BA, she drew the attention of the City Guard when she stole a ring from Margrave Fargen Huide while he was wearing it.

## Biography

Shortly after her theft of the signet ring from Lord Huide, Carhavel was besieged by Desmer. Alis was caught up in the chaos. She headed to the King's gate, a little-known postern gate in the north of the city, and there came across Percy Oddell of the City Guard saddling up horses to make his escape. She briefly taunted Oddell, and defended her theft as recovering an item stolen from her ancestors. When Oddell told her that he's leaving Carhavel to escort Eada Taphan to safety, Alis said that she will join them. She went with the group as they headed north towards Pardasath.

Entering Anternien, they came by the bodies of several executed criminals. Alis recognised one of them as Harn, a companion of hers. She caused a scene, naming King Descard a tyrant, and was arrested by the guards in Anternien.

## Description

Alis is a slender, pale woman with a husky voice. Her eyes are almost violet, and her hair is dark and wavy. She has a disarming manner of speech.

On Morsearn Field

**On Morsearn Field** is the first chapter of The Forge of the Magus. It was first released on Scribblehub on 2nd August 2022.

## Synopsis

A falcon, flying north into the Grasp from the southern mountains, is shot dead by an archer over the Morsearn Field. A pitched battle is taking place on the field, between the armies of the kingdoms of Dael and Méor. Both armies have already made three charges without breaking the opposing lines, and are now waiting for the orders to make another.

An archer from the Endael army, Mardan Eltrier, sees an opportunity. The man leading the Méorin army, the great General Edman Corrade, is standing in such a position as to give Mardan an open shot. Mardan thinks of those he's seen die already in this war, and muses that with Corrade dead the war might end quickly. He might even be granted a lordship. Mardan takes his shot, successfully killing Corrade, and at once time seems to freeze.

Frozen in time, Mardan is barely aware of the passage of time. At some point, Desmer—a chimera—arrives on the now-quiet battlefield. Observing the frozen armies, Desmer informs an adjutant that the two armies will fight in his name. He is after all a prophesied conqueror.

## Biography

Kana was one of six Magi stationed in the city of Carhavel in 684 BA. While in the city, she had her awakening. When the city came under attack, she went with Captain Percy Oddell and her fellow Magi Aldora Lindomel and Toral Aspen to the top of one of the Bastions on the city wall. They remained there until the following morning, when the Outlander army crossed the Rhaddan river. Kana, along with Percy and Aldora, descended from the Bastion. She went towards the easternmost Bastion. The plan of the Magi was to defend the city by means of a wide shield, cast between them all.

The easternmost Bastion was the first to be destroyed, its shield beaten back by Desmer. The resulting explosion completely destroyed the Bastion, leaving Kana and all the others inside with almost zero chance of survival.

**Fariel Torven**, also known as Fariel Fire-Eyes and Fariel the Fair, was a famous king of history. Fariel was the most recent person to rule all of the lands of the Grasp, doing so for the last seven years of the Time of Kings. Fariel was deposed by his steward Jothe Egéna in 1779 TK, and his followers exiled.
Dael

**Dael** is a kingdom on the southern marches of the Grasp. Along with the neighbouring Kingdom of Méor, it stands between the rest of the Grasp and the barren Outlands. Its ruling dynasty since the fall of Fariel has been the Berylblood House of Egéna.

## Culture

In Dael, noble bastards are entitled to the same name as their trueborn siblings.

## Geography

The southern tip of Dael is primarily mountainous. The tallest of the Endael mountains is Starforger's Lance. The southern tributary of the Rhaddan river flows north from these mountains; it is via this river that Endael merchants travel to Carhavel to sell their goods.

## History

Despite frequent marriages between the respective royal families to keep peace, in 684 BA Dael and Méor went to war. Although Dael had more soldiers, the strength particularly of the Méorin general Edman Corrade resulted in a bloody stalemate. The war was brought to an end by the invasion from the Outlands of a force led by Desmer, who froze the army of Dael in time on the Morsearn Field before conquering Tarhanen. Queen Jelestal Egéna and her three children were executed by Desmer for the crimes of their blood, bringing about the end of the known Egéna dynasty.

Berylblood

The **Berylblood** is the name for the noble bloodline that draws its descent from Jothe Egéna, most prominently seen in the House of Egéna which rules Dael. The House of Erdetey, which presently rules Caranán, is a cadet branch of the House of Egéna and presumably descended from the same Berylblood.

The Berylblood is seen with hostility by Outlanders. Before he executed Queen Jelestal Egéna, Desmer charged her with the crimes of her blood - making peace with the Elemental Realms and murdering King Fariel Torven.
Mardan Eltrier

**Mardan Eltrier** is an Endael archer.

## Biography

In 668 BA, Mardan Eltrier was a pageboy in service at the Beryl Palace in Tarhanen. During his service, he witnessed a chimera being hauled away from Princess Jelestal, who was pregnant and in labour.

Mardan was courting Amabel Entane, eldest daughter of the Steward of Tarhanen, though he saw his low birth as an impediment to marriage.

When his homeland went to war with Méor, Mardan fought. He was present at Geánan Ford, and witnessed the death of Jerram at the hands of Méorin soldiers. Motivated by this to bring about the end of Méor, Mardan fought at the battle of Morsearn Field. He planned to kill General Edman Corrade, thinking this would bring about the end of the war. When the opportunity came, Mardan shot Corrade in the eye, killing him. Just seconds later, though, the entirety of Morsearn Field - Mardan included - was frozen in time. Mardan was present to witness the arrival of Desmer.

The Grasp

The **Grasp** - also known as **Fariel's Grasp** - is the name given to the lands not destroyed by blight and ruin in the aftermath of the long war against the Sighted. Over the years, the amount of kingdoms in the Grasp, and their borders, has varied. They were most recently united as a single polity for seven years under the reign of King Fariel Torven (also known as Fariel Fire-Eyes) at the very end of the Time of Kings.

## Kingdoms of the Grasp

There are at present nineteen kingdoms in the Grasp - as well as the lands in the heart of the Gerenal Mountains, where the Octal Tower of the Magi stands, which are not part of any kingdom.

Aldora Lindomel

> I am a warrior. In my mind, I died the moment the first horn of war sounded.
>
> Aldora, to Percy Oddell

**Aldora Lindomel** is a Magus of the Octal Tower. As the martial leader of the order, she is one of the foremost Magi. She belongs to the Chain of the Nightjar.

## Biography

Aldora Lindomel was born in Retea in 647 BA. During the war between the Magi and Otenlan, she fought with distinction, particularly at the Battle of Indaene. This led to her being brought to the Octal Tower in 666 BA, at the age of nineteen. Three years later she was linked to the Chain of the Nightjar. Aldora became close friends with Meia Anjol, Myane Colarra and Gettie Tennemere. Her involvement in Octal Tower politics drew whispers from other Magi; she played a part in the raising of Amice Merrimoth to leadership, but was sent away from the Octal Tower thereafter.

In 682 BA, Aldora and Eada Taphan - to whom she was linked - came to Carhavel. Aldora was one of six Magi stationed in the Carhavel in 684 BA. She kept a private residence in the city, which was frequently visited by Eada - ostensibly a member of the city guard but in truth a seventh Magus. Foremost among the Magi in Carhavel, Aldora relayed to Captain Percy Oddell the message that the Octal Tower had fallen. She counselled that Eada was of particular importance and asked that Captain Oddell take Eada away should Carhavel come to be threatened.

When word came that the attacking army was led by a fire-eyes calling himself the Son of Prophecy, and that Queen Jelestal of Dael was dead, Aldora realised the army was likely an Outlander army. She accompanies Oddell and the rest of the Magi to the top of the Bastions on the Carhavel walls. The next morning, once it becomes clear that battle is imminent, she and the Magi spread among the six Bastions, so as to cast a shield between them that would prevent the Outlander army from breaching Carhavel.

In the event, the shield proved useless against the oncoming army. It was destroyed quickly, and with devastating effect. Aldora was killed when her Bastion - the fifth of six - was destroyed. She remained alive in the head of Eada Taphan.

Land of Abundance and Plunder (LOAAP)

## The Land of Abundance and Plunder (LOAAP)

"*Who the hell named this? A movie director? Get this shit off my desk. -* Edward J. Yellowtail

**The Land of Abundance and Plunder** (dubbed LOAAP) is a dimension discovered by **Typheus Tech** through the manipulation of the **Window's** telecommunicator relay. It's not fully known how the land came to be accessible, or to what purpose it serves, but it has resulted in the discovery of numerous new underlings. Unfortunately, **Typheus Tech** did a rather piss poor job at keeping these underlings in LOAAP, seeing as there are numerous of them crawling around in the overworld.

Camistane Guard Captain

The **Captain of the City Guard** of Camistane was among those guarding the northern gate of the city when Telis Heddorel and her companions tried to leave in the middle of the night. Acting on the orders of the Margrave, he initially refused to let them leave. When informed that the innkeeper Howel Tomarty and his wife Retta had been murdered, he sent a guard to investigate. He secretly informed Telis that the Margrave held no ill will towards the Magi, but that he had to keep up appearances to appease interlopers. He gave the order that the gate be opened.

Furthest Ring

## The Furthest Ring

"*The **Furthest Ring** is an infinite space that exists outside of all universes. It physically borders the outside of every Incipisphere, containing the orbit of Derse and separated from The Medium by The Veil. As mentioned in Rose's Grimoire the ring is home to a number of eldritch monstrosities, including Fluthlu, Nrub'yiglith, and Oglogoth. The most powerful of these monsters are the Noble Circle of Horrorterrors. Dersite Dreamers are able to see and hear the Horrorterrors by staring into the space beyond Derse."*

The Furthest Ring is currently only accessible through the Window, as developed and maintained by **Typheus Tech**. Current efforts are spent attempting to reduce the effects of the dimension's warping of Time and Space- made evident through numerous reports of anomalies detected by **Edward J. Yellowtail**, Typheus' lead scientist.

The dimensions effects have extended beyond just the warping of Time and Space, as evident by accounts of 'corruption' by select *Horrorterrors* with a fixation on the timeline (or lack thereof, depending upon who you ask). More research must be conducted.

Breakfast with the King

**Breakfast with the King** is the fourteenth chapter of The Forge of the Magus. It was released on Scribblehub on 16th September 2022.

## Synopsis

Percy Oddell and his companions reach Pardasath, where they are given rooms for the night. The following morning, Percy joins the others at breakfast with King Descard. Percy is amazed at the sheer amount of food on offer. The King presents his Magus, Telsa Cannaldan, and tells Percy that he plans to marry her within the year. Eada insists that Telsa doesn't want marriage, and so the King should leave her alone. Sensing that things are going to get out of hand, Percy turns the conversation to Carhavel. The King is dismissive of the threat posed by Desmer's army, and insists that Pardasath will never fall.

The meal eventually winds down, and the King leaves with Telsa. After the King's sister Elgeth makes an observation on his vulgarity, the misogyny of the master-at-arms Ewlan Haughtry drives Eada to storm out of the hall. Percy follows her, trying to comfort her while also chastising her for criticising the King to his face. He realises that Eada spent last night with Telsa. Eada tells him that she has to leave, and asks Percy to go with her. He declines - Tuiar is his home.
