Gwynneth
High Lady Ordalf has lived almost forever, it seems. She knows she is prophesied to die, and her death will help end a threat both to her people and to creatures from the mortal realm. Her foretold death must take place in the mortal realm, so she expended the energy needed to move her entire realm of Sarifal back to the island of Gwynneth.
Naturally, the mortal inhabitants of the island, under the rule of House Kendrick, fought back against this invasion, which started with the city of Karador rising from the depths of Myrloch, the cold-water lake in the Myrloch Vale. The resistance to the fey incursion, spearheaded by forces of the High King, slowly eroded as the fey queen’s forces marched relentlessly and unchecked in all directions toward the sea. Some Ffolk in the villages were permitted to remain in their ancestral homes if they swore fealty to High Lady Ordalf and promised to serve Sarifal Faithfully.
While Sarifal now covers the entirety of Gwynneth, Lady Ordalf’s forces still fight against threats manifested by Unseelie fey that came across the planar divide as well. The fight is carried out by Lady Ordalf’s son, Prince Araithe. Araithe doesn’t know the reason for his mother’s decision to return Sarifal to the mortal realm but leading the military forces against enemies of Sarifal keeps his mind occupied on war. He is aware of the threats not just to Gwynneth, but to the other islands as well.
Despite the war he fought against House Kendrick throughout the previous century, Prince Araithe recognizes that an alliance with the mortal leader could lead to a very powerful Moonshae kingdom. The details of such a union are still being worked out. Tarilyn Kendrick, eldest daughter of King Derid, stays as a guest of the prince in the castle at Karador while the parties discuss terms. No agreement suitable to all parties is pending, but where there is communication, there is hope.
