Achillean Nestoris, otherwise known as the Tidesinger, is an Ardoni, a member of the Nestoris clan, who is fighting on the side of the Resistance in the Jonathan Crisis and the Battle of Ardonia. He is the rival of Ingressus Voltaris, otherwise known as the Deathsinger, who leads the Voltaris clan and fights on the side of the Alliance.

Achillean was one of the few Ardoni not to switch sides upon Thalleous Sendaris' betrayal of the Resistance. Ultimately deciding to fight for a just cause, and not having approved of Thalleous' genocides in the past, Achillean remained loyal. Today, he is a powerful warrior and one of the most integral figures in the fight against the Alliance, at least as far as Ardonia is concerned.

## History

### Early Life

Very little is known about Achillean's early life. It's presumed he was raised by the former master of the Nestoris clan, Aegus Nestoris, who passed away long ago.

Before the Great War, and before he became skilled in combat, Achillean's favourite pastime was to fish. He had never touched a Song or a weapon in his life by this point.

### Friendship With Ingressus

Achillean met Ingressus while he was fishing one day. Ingressus was floating through the river, weak, having previously escaped an attack by the other clans, in which his father and the previous master of the Voltaris, Dominus Voltaris, had been assassinated. Achillean alerted Aegus, and the two of them rescued Ingressus.

Aegus, who was more tolerant and accepting of the Voltaris than the other masters, welcomed Ingressus into the Nestoris clan and protected him by using his staff to change the colour of his markings, which would conceal his true heritage. Meanwhile, Achillean befriended Ingressus, and taught him how to fish. In exchange, Ingressus, a skilled warrior, taught Achillean how to fight, which would eventually result in Achillean becoming powerful enough to rival him.

### The Great War

The Ardonian Great War, as it is called by foreigners (also known as "The Great War" by locals, to be confused with World War I on Earth) began a while after the banishment of the Voltaris, when the monarchist Nether state under King Chronos invaded the Overworld, vanquishing many of the lands of the kingdoms. Soon, the Enderknights, an elite force of warriors from the End, intervened to protect the Overworld, but even they weren't strong enough to fight back the Nether.

In desperation, the kingdoms called upon the Ardoni clans for assistance. The Ardoni masters decided to hold a tournament to find the strongest champion among the Ardoni species, who would wield all four of the most powerful Songs - the Prime Songs. After hearing of the news, Achillean encouraged Ingressus to join the tournament, then reveal himself as Voltaris after winning, and pledge his support to the other clans as a message that even the Voltaris were on their side. Ingressus reluctantly agreed to the plan.

Ingressus competed in the tournament and triumphed. The four masters prepared to give him the Prime Songs, but after he revealed himself, the three other masters besides Aegus, became distrustful, as they were still highly prejudiced against the Voltaris. They denied him the Primes. Aegus was sympathetic, but ultimately could not help Ingressus without risking his reputation.

Believing the Prime Songs to be rightfully his, Ingressus snapped and assassinated the other three masters, taking their Prime Songs. Although Ingressus tried to take out Aegus as well, Achillean intervened and protected him, allowing Aegus to escape with the last and most powerful of the Prime Songs. Achillean believed Ingressus to have gone mad, and their friendship promptly ended.

Ingressus escaped, found his exiled clan, and regrouped with them, but they were still heavily outnumbered with all of Ardonia against them. There was only one place to turn to.

So, Ingressus met with King Chronos of the Nether and forged an alliance between the Nether and the Voltaris Clan, which proceeded to wage total war on all of Ardonia. Although the humans, Ardoni, Felinas, Magnorites and Enderknights all rallied to stop them, they were too disorganized to efficiently fight back the invaders, until Achillean joined the fight. Skilled with the Songs, Achillean united and regrouped the armies of Ardonia, and drove back the Nether, forcing them to retreat to their home realm.

Now alone, the Voltaris clan fell back to Mt. Velgrin, where they were cornered by their enemies. Ingressus knew the war was lost, and instructed his fellow Voltaris to construct a time portal that would bring him forward 154 years into the future when Ardonia was weak and easier to catch off guard. Achillean travelled to the peak of Mt. Velgrin to duel Ingressus once and for all. The two fought for a while before Ingressus prevailed, blasting Achillean off a cliff, though he survived.

Ingressus then walked through the time portal after it showed up from the future. His Songs couldn't travel through time, so he was forced to leave them behind. After going through the portal, he travelled to the future. Achillean would later follow him to the present as well, also giving up his Songs.

### The Jonathan Crisis

After Achillean made it to the present, he quickly learned of what was going on and allied with the Resistance, determined to stop Ingressus and his schemes. However, he also believed it was possible for Ingressus to be redeemed, and he hadn't completely given up on his former friend yet.

When Thalleous betrayed the Resistance, many Ardoni followed suit by switching sides, as Thalleous was heavily respected. Achillean, knowing that what Thalleous had done in the past was awful, and above all determined to fight for good, refused to betray the Resistance and continued fighting on their side. Due to his influence, he managed to convince quite a few Ardoni to continue to support the Resistance. As of today, he continues to be a great help in the fight for Ardonia.
