Long ago, the race that is now known as the Familiars came to Aranna and terrorised the world, nearly eradicating the Elves. The greatest Elven fighters, archers, and mages formed the Order of the Crimson Hunters and fought back, seeking out the enemy in their lairs and eventually exiling the Familiars from Aranna entirely.
These Elven heroes were laid to rest in a grand tomb with their leader, Lorethal, who gave his life to save them and all of the Elves. When you imprisoned his soul within Ressa’s bloodstone, the spirits of the other noble warriors rose from their graves, summoning their formidable magic to destroy the monsters who would defile their leader.
