Last Light at Ald Calta


"Last Light at Ald Calta" was painted by Jal Halawir and is a famous work of art. 

It depicts the beginning of what would be the utter destruction of Ald Calta during the Taming of the Serpent.

The original hangs in the High King's Gallery at Kathmbir Keep in Peakshadow.  


Siege of Ald Dovaris



"Siege of Ald Dovaris" was painted by Sylvio Firena and is a famous work of art. 

It is his rendition of part of the Taming of the Serpent. Like many of his works, sages of history question its accuracy as Agronar the Conqueror is not known to have had siege equipment at Ald Dovaris or elsewhere. 

The original hangs in the High King's gallery of art at Kathmbir Keep in Peakshadow.

Agronar the Ghost King


Agronar was the Chancellor General of Westrun who saw to the conquest of the Principalities of Vyruma Serpentis (the Taming of the Serpent) when his King was too far in debt to repay the creditors that lived there. He was so popular with his soldiers and the common folk that rumors abounded that he would be proclaimed king upon his return to Westrun. Some A fit of jealousy may have led to his assassination.

Despite his death, his banners still hang on the anniversary of his birth each year.

Agronar dresses in the purest white silk over chain armor trimmed in gold. His device is that of a humbled dragon with a bit in its mouth.

Agronar wields the sword Excalte, a sword sharp enough to sever limbs and the slightest stroke. It has a magical scabbard that heals all slashing, piercing wounds. His magical helm makes him absolutely immune to breath weapons and area attacks.
