Strange portals began to be seen throughout the Vardarian Highlands,
releasing hundred of smaller, slave orcs from the Brekknit clan. Led by
larger versions, clothed in purple robes and known as Strengmire orcs,
they swept across the land in search of another clan, known as the
Sulkhat.

The Sulkhat clan was led by an massive, black orc named Onkassus. After
many hours of bloody battle with the combined forces of Kinsarmar, and
other cities, he agreed to a meeting.

During this meeting he revealed the Strengmire orcs had mastered many
forms of magick, using it to teleport himself and his camp from their
mountain home, away from their army. He demanded the 'fleshies'
slaughter the opposing clans and destroy their portals in return for him
sparing their lives. As the meeting droned on for far longer then
Onkassus wished, the Strengmire orcs managed to meet with opposing
forces as well.

Having found a way to move the Crystal of Ages, they managed to quickly
mobilize, while the Sulkhat deliberations continued. The Strengmire orcs
stole the crystal from its resting place and transported it to a safe
location where they could work their own foul magick. Whatever that may
be.

Even now the vibrations of the lands have begun to lose their
continuity.
