The Last Flight of the Harpies
The last flight of the harpies, led by the beautiful Queen Lorena, is how the cruel men of Dranor traditionally distinguish the destructive end of the War of the Ashes. Many decades of the fighting took place for these desirable lands, inevitably making the Harpies numbers drop. Believed to have indeed propelled them to extinction. Rumours say that this defeat forced them to flee north to the Clawed Island. All Harpy prisoners forcibly taken during the victorious war were promptly executed and unknowingly had their charred ashes sprinkled into the sea. The brutal executions were reported to be plentiful, which is undoubtedly how the Ash Isles came about.
However, there have been undoubtedly no reported sightings of any Harpies, since they 'promptly fled' their historic homelands. An insignificant number of foolish people incorrectly think they evolved in isolation into the hostile tribes that currently inhabit The Isles of Lost Souls. As a desperate act of personal revenge against any that stumble upon the unknown shores. This is considered nonsense by the men of Dranor and laugh of all those who suggest as such.
