== The prophet Arcavius ==

The history of Aarklash begins in Barhan territory, in the
barony of Laverne, a century and a half after the foundation
of the Kingdom of Alahan. Arcavius de Sabran was already a
middle-aged man. He was a famous baron who had managed
to finish building the fortresses north of Alahan, thanks to his
military skills and leadership qualities. Yet he aspired to some
peace at last, and felt his world was about to change, without
knowing exactly how.
One evening, after a meeting with other barons, Arcavius
took his time to wander through the forest. Th ere an angel of
fire appeared before him and spoke: “You are the chosen one,
you have been chosen by Merin. You have inherited His conscience; may it be your reward and your burden.”
