Sacred:The Sea of Blood
The Sea of Blood
Morgast, the second son of Aarnum I has shown himself to be exceptionally brutal and has begun to hunt down and persecute witches, wizards and magicians, as well as travelling show-people and gypsies. Morgast has built his fortress of Castle Thunderstone between the capital Braverock Castle and the monastery. Among the local people, this castle will become known as Crow's Rock Castle on account of the graves, the gallows and the execution scaffolds that present such a grim presence around Morgast's stronghold, teeming with thousands of crows and raven which find rich pickings among the many carcasses of Morgast's victims.
Meanwhile, the Dark Elves await their opportunity for revenge. Advancing from the northern regions spreading venom and treachery, they move through the dark catacombs of the dwarf fortress of Gnarlstat, wiping out the local dwarf population. No dwarf man, woman or child is able to escape the massacre. Barricading themselves in the ruins of Gnarlstat, the Dark Elves construct a fortress which they call Zhurag-Nar, from where they will rule over the north-eastern provinces of Ancaria.
