The Savage Brutality of the War Men

It is during this time that the now immortal Char Reyarteb – with the Starborn Gem and his legions of subterranean War Men unleashed by The Unsundering – sets out to conquer the reformed world of Battal. At the same time, Gr'z'tok, Blood-Bearded Lord of Overrulers and High Chief of the Highland Valleys, took up his fearsome axe Mortalkill and assembled his fearsome legion of Higgerath to do battle against the forest dwelling Arkleaf settlement, which then split into The Four Factions to preserve itself. The Cohoris tribe was the only of the four to survive the Siege of Arkleaf.

 

The Higgerath barbarians utterly ravaged Arkleaf for fifty years. The wood-archers of Arkleaf tried in vain to restrain them with arrows of shot-flight, against which the Higgerath forces could do little. The conflict raged on between them and their children and their children's children and their children's children's children. And possibly their children too, though that's somewhat of a gray area.

 

Gr'z'tok was defeated when Phyllana, High Priestess of Arkleaf, managed to disguise herself in the form of a falconhawk in order to sneak into the most insurmountable pinnacle of Gr'z'tok's lair at Lowtower. She then summoned the aggregate power of seven hundred and seventy-seven Spirits of Channeling to focus untold energy into her Soul Crystal, allowing her to become "one with the tower." She then destroyed herself in a tremendous act of self-destruction.
