Nuldomul, also known as the Stoneheart Despoiler. Terrene's Flesh and the Spirit of the Tellurian, was a gargantuan elemental creature loosed onto the continent of Ahlus following the open of the Great Seal beneath the Chittering Holt.

It was later established that Nuldomul was one of the Primordial Elemental Princes, vastly powerful beings personifying the might of nature. It thus remains uncertain of the permanence of their "death".

## Description

Almost simian in appearance, Nuldomul was an entity of elemental stone and earth of monstrous proportions. Most typically moving on all fours, when upright it was capable of standing nearly forty feet tall and so easily dwarfed most of the constructions in Whittengrove during the battle that resulted in its destruction.

Although capable of drifting through the earth without resistance, when it travelled atop the surface it would leave trails of huge footprints, scattering fragments of oily black stone that would transform into earth elementals and strange crystalline beings with arcane abilities. Nuldomul had also been shown to be able to create beacon-like pillars that drew those subjects already created to its side.

## Commandments

* Many a mountain can be moved with sufficient force. Should the obstacle remain in spite all of your might, shatter and sunder that which prevents your path forwards in life.
* Feel for the rumbles of the soil and stone beneath your feet as readily as you listen for the zeitgeist of those that surround you - they are echoes of events yet to come, for which you may come to prepare.
* Concern yourself not with what may find itself underfoot, whether by means of your will, or by chance. Diamonds form under great pressure, those destined and worthy of greatness will survive the experience.

## History

Before even Aita's First Gift, the Primordial Elemental Princes fell upon the lands created by the Lord in the Quiet Places, carving valleys were once they had not existed, shattering coastlines into the waves, stirring the heat of the earth to spill from mountain peaks and sealing forests within sheens of unyielding frost. Divided, the consciousness of Caihrnn was shattered, and from this rending new life spurned - the creation of Aita herself, who would gift her light to bring into existence the Sixteen, included amongst them an echo of Caihrnn once more.

Banishing the shadow that loomed from the division, the Ahlusian Sixteen turned their focus to the Primordials, seeking to reclaim the lands desecrated - but now found themselves further confounded by other malign forces attracted by the efflux of divine might. Delighting in the chaos of conflict, demonic entities lurched through the veil of the Abyss, revelling and gorging on the carnage and corrupting the lands further still through their presence. Wielding weapons without equal, forces of good and evil alike sundered each other with divine might, and while never truly defeated, their power found itself diminished by the endless cycle of conflict. With the tide of battle shifting against them, the Malign started to turn to mortal servants to further their goals, retreating into the cosmos to guide their words and deeds from afar. Utilising what strength remained to banish the primordials that still bent the lands to their designs, the Sixteen turned to do the same, bringing about the Second Gift as they gifted their residual manifestations to teach the Principal Races and set them on a path unknown, watching from citadels of starlight in the heavens.

## Recent History

After much destruction delivered by its own movements and that of its subordinates during an attack on the settlement of Whittengrove, Nuldomul was destroyed, crumbling into pieces across the settlement. A curious otherworldly artifact was recovered from within its lithic skull, after which the remnants of the body that remained were reclaimed by hundreds of chain hands that pulled it back to oblivion.
