The Tsol'teth were eventually able to divine the meaning of this word, but were unable to travel to the surface world with their army of slaves, as the sunlight burned them. They prepared for some time, and sent curses and plagues to weaken Nicator and his followers, while amassing a great army and training them to better understand the surface world. Eventually the Tsol'teth slew their slaves in a great ritual. The slaves were then ressurected, but with cold hearts and an immunity to the harsh light of the sun. Only their general, [[Matic Ridley]], was spared, trained in the ways of the surface world and used by his masters to help prepare the new army for battle. Matic Ridley became vengeful, however, feeling the true soul of his people had been lost. | The Tsol'teth were eventually able to divine the meaning of this word, but were unable to travel to the surface world with their army of slaves, as the sunlight burned them.

Each of the three Tsol'teth took their forces to different major cities of the realms. Agith'maal to Seleucar, Terrin'ukia to [[Ashtan]], and Gattan'lier to [[Shallam]]. They nearly decimated these cities until Agith'maal was betrayed by Matic Ridley, who pulled away the [[cloak of darkness]] protecting the Tsol'teth lord and stabbed him in the back. Matic Ridley aided the Seleucarians, and they were able to defeat Agith'maal and his forces by tearing out the Tsol'teth's heart.

An unfortunate side effect of this was that the occultist [[Adchachel]] devoured the heart to gain essence, and later went mad. | ||
Seleucar was able to aid Ashtan and Shallam after the defeat of Agith'maal, defeating the other Tsol'teth, though not without many casualties. | Seleucar was able to aid Ashtan and Shallam after the defeat of Agith'maal, defeating the other Tsol'teth, though not without many casualties. | ||
No more was heard of the Tsol'teth, until the modern age, when an unknown Tsol'teth invaded the previously hidden Barony of [[Dun Valley]], slaying its inhabitants with the aid of ogre and orc slaves. Before his plans could be realised, however, he was betrayed by one of his slaves, [[Vukub Ysin’zhu]]. An apprentice of the Tsol'teth, [[Zh'risia]], survived, and managed to manipulate the orc, [[Kroul]]. Kroul was under the command of Vukub, and through him Zh'risia nearly succeeded in his vile plans, the extent of which are unknown. Eventually, an army of Achaeans, grouped from many walks of life and united in their purpose to stop the machinations of Vukub, invaded the fortress and found Zh'risia there, ruining his plans and slaying him after a great battle. | No more was heard of the Tsol'teth, until the modern age, when an unknown Tsol'teth invaded the previously hidden Barony of [[Dun Valley]], slaying its inhabitants with the aid of ogre and orc slaves.
