## History

#### The Lost War for Thoriré

Born in royalty, Hielkuh was the heir to the throne of Thoriré in an old dwarven kingdom that hosted both a dwarf and human population. In his early years he grew to be an inspiring king for the people of Thoriré, but his life took a different turn. A plague hit the kingdom and General Dorim seized power over the humans. His father died from the plague leaving him alone for power. He was only 27 when he was supposed to claim the throne.

A massive battle ensued between the races. The fight was between the Thoririan dwarves, loyal to the Ironhide family, under the leadership of prince Hielkuh, and the humans, following the lead of General Dorim. Heavily outnumbered, the dwarves were forced to retreat to the caves in the mountains. Civilians and warriors were all engaged in the fight and held their ground, but General Dorim's army slowly drew them into a corner. After it was accepted that defeat was certain, Hielkuh sacrificed himself with a small force and held the line, so that the majority of his people could escape. They got captured and imprisoned soon after.

#### The Great Escape

After the battle was lost, Hielkuh Harold Ironhide and his men, whom had held the line with him, were captured and taken to the dungeons. It was heavily guarded and deep in the mountain valley. He was tortured and interrogated to give up the location of the refugees. He was almost at his breaking point. Imprisoned for 39 days, he had almost lost all hope, a small force broke them out in a stealth operation. The operation was orchestrated by Rafael Kyles and Lieutenant Jack Murdow, whom are close friends with the prince. With unorthodox techniques and tactics they managed to free Hielkuh and a handful of captured soldiers.

After the escape they travelled out of Thoriré and found the camp where most Thoririan refugees had settled. With an entire kingdom after them, Hielkuh decided that they should travel far away from Thoriré and start anew. They travelled light and far.

### Eldham

#### The City of Trayaguard

They travelled all the way to the realm (or 'continent' in Brudmirian literature) of Eldham. They travelled through many existing nations without any knowing of where to settle, until they arrived in Trayaguard on January 5th 2022. A city in the north of Drakonia. A land that Hielkuh had actually heard stories of from his father. Trayaguard was governed by a man called Elorion Tian and had good relations with Hielkuh's father, Harold Herado Ironhide.

Prince Ironhide begged Elorion for his people to rest here until they found a place to settle. Sir Tian accepted this and gave them a small place outside the city to set camp in exchange for some labour. In the short time they stayed, Hielkuh and Elorion Tian showed great interest in each other. They had a lot in common. Both saw great potential in the future if the people of Thoriré worked together with the people of Trayaguard. This short-term stay would soon turn out to be become the permanent place of residence for the Thoririans. Under prince Ironhide's leadership the Thoririans build the new city of Trayaguard on the nearby mountain. Hielkuh would slowly climb the ranks in Drakonia, solidifying the position of the people of Thoriré in Drakonia.

#### Creating Brudmir

With the people of Thoriré fully settled, Hielkuh sought to make a land for the people to live in peace. Looking for a place where people can live free and be protected by him. He started to call the name of this promised land 'Brudmir'. Graf Elorion Tian thought that Trayaguard could become this promised land and thus Hielkuh and Elorion sought to create Brudmir in Drakonia. Soon after, Graf Elorion Tian got promoted to Duke over his own Dukedom. Hielkuh became Graf of another town called Drejistan and named it Rhoeäs. Together they lead the people of both Trayaguard and Thoririan origin over this new province. The new province would be called Brudmir, inspired by the idea of the promised land that both Hielkuh and Elorion invisioned. The people of Thoriré and it's heir have now become Brudmirians.

Hielkuh Harold Ironhide's, mastery in architecture and dedication has made the province of Brudmir one of the most appealing places in Simulami. Many people come to visit both Trayaguard and Rhoeäs to see his incredible achievements.

## The Diary of Brudmir

### Strange dreams

Hielkuh Harold Ironhide has been having strange dreams in his sleep. After weeks of constant torment by the same scene, he consults with Elorion Tian for guidance on this mysterious event. He has been advised to seek records of his past and find out why these dreams are important to him, and by extension, Trayaguard. This journey is new and will be discovered further.

### The Glaive of Fidelitas

Upon fighting a battle in this adventure Hielkuh wins over the loyalty of the **Glaive of Fidelitas**. A mighty weapon with special properties. He has been using this weapon ever since as his main weapon on Stoneworks MC.

## Challenging The Titans

On the 28th of July, Hielkuh Harold Ironhide announced to the entirety of Eldham, that Brudmir would face all the boss monsters summoned by Segra. In Brudmir these monster are called 'Titans'. He has successfully defeated the *Slime Princess* so far. As a trophy, he got an artefact from the Deities. The Crown Land of Drakonia below Rhoeäs has slowly turned into a battlefield to fight the Titans. In a massive collaborative effort with the Simulami Empire, he managed to banish the Ent King, slaying another of Segra's beasts. To achieve it, the Glaive of Fidelitas was blessed once more. It would be months later, in the Duchy of Samora, that he would finally face Segra himself in an unexpected encounter. After his battle, the weapon gained yet another blessing, making it one of the most powerful artefacts in all of Eldham.
