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 [[goblinoid]] and [[horkval]] slaves in a great ritual. From their corpses, the Tsol'teth took "[[spiral ribbons of future creation]]" and used these objects to give life to fiercer, more heartless slaves with an insatiable bloodlust and an immunity to the sun. Only their hobgoblin captain, Blademaster [[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.

In what was to be known as the [[War of the Deeps]], each of the three Tsol'teth took their forces to different major [[city-states]] 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. | In what was to be known as the [[War of the Deeps]], each of the three Tsol'teth took their forces to different major [[:category:city-states|city-states]] of the realms: Agith'maal to Seleucar, Terrin'ukia to [[Ashtan]], and Gattan'lier to [[Shallam]].

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. |
