Ardael was a Tsol'aa maiden who lived on Achaea in the years prior to the Chaos Wars. A student under the tutelage of Ugrach, her singing captured the heart of the Aldar gardener. Their coupling sparked anger in the other Aldar, an outrage undimmed by the birth of their son, Slith. Though Ardael died in childbirth, Ugrach commemorated her life with a monument in the gardens of Nur.
