== History ==
 +
Long ago all the elves
 +
were part of a single nation,
 +
Quithayran. Th e
 +
Republic of Lanever was
 +
born from a succession
 +
confl ict, called the Serrelis,
 +
in 558. One of the
 +
two possible heirs to the
 +
throne, a partisan of wisdom
 +
and Light, chose to
 +
leave and went into exile
 +
in Lanever to avoid
 +
civil war. Along with
 +
his many followers he founded a republic. Th e elves
 +
of this new nation adopted the
 +
name of Cynwäll, or “Exiled”.
 +
ey swore not to take part in
 +
the confl icts of the continent.
 +
e Cynwäll allied themselves
 +
the dragons that live in the
 +
mountains of Lanever. While exploring
 +
territory they discovered ancient
 +
temples, inside which slept ancient artifacts, constructs
 +
and libraries built by a long forgotten society. Exiled
 +
no more, the Cynwäll became the keepers of the secrets of the
 +
Elders.
 +
The Cynwäll broke their oath of neutrality during the fi rst
 +
battle of Kaïber in 625. By siding with Light they prevented
 +
the Ram from invading Aarklash. Over the following centuries,
 +
the Dragon fought many battles against the Meanders of
 +
Darkness.
 +
The Cynwäll, in their great wisdom, knew that the Rag’narok
 +
was unavoidable. After centuries of preparation they are fi ghting
 +
with all their might, using the weapons of the Elders. Even
 +
the prospect of Aarklash being destroyed cannot break their
 +
concentration. Th e former guardians have become formidable
 +
warriors. Th e Dragon is taking the fi ght into Darkness’ territory
 +
in the western parts of Aarklash, while supporting its
 +
allies wherever its forces are needed.

 +
== Ragn'arok ==
 +
 
 +
The Cynwäll see the Rag’narok as
 +
an opportunity for all the peoples of
 +
Aarklash: the chance to choose their
 +
own future, between Light and Darkness.
 +
Th ey know that the battle will be
 +
merciless and that the consequences
 +
will be terrible: if Darkness wins, Creation
 +
will experience an era of corruption
 +
and pain.
 +
 
 +
 
 +
The certainty of these truths is supported
 +
daily by the reality of these
 +
confl icts. Th e Dragon is deploying its
 +
companies from the Ynkarô to the
 +
Syharhalna. However, there are not
 +
enough Cynwäll fi ghters to maintain
 +
such an army, even with the support
 +
of the constructs and the dragons. So
 +
it is the entire population that is at war,
 +
risking complete extinction if they ever
 +
were to be defeated. Only faultless concentration
 +
can lead them to victory in
 +
these conditions! Th is is why the Cynwäll
 +
lock their hearts and souls away
 +
before each battle, resembling more
 +
and more the constructs fi ghting by
 +
their side.
 +
Th e time of the Rag’narok has come
 +
and the Dragon is waking from its
 +
meditation. Th e only uncertainty left is
 +
the future: the victor alone shall make
 +
History.

== Army ==
 +
 
 +
The army of the Dragon is a sophisticated
 +
war machine. Th e male and
 +
female troopers, the specialists, the
 +
constructs of all shapes and sizes, the
 +
titanic dragons are all cogs that fi t into
 +
the Cynwäll army with deadly precision.
 +
Th e army is a lethal blade capable
 +
of causing fatal damage when wielded
 +
by a master of strategy.
 +
Th e selsÿms constitute the main
 +
body of the army; their mastery of
 +
combat is rarely equaled by the regular
 +
troops of the other peoples and moreover
 +
their speed is that of the elves.
 +
Th ey are supported by elite troops that
 +
specialize in one or another aspect of
 +
the Cynwäll art of war: the kestrels for
 +
instance exchange their shield for a pistol,
 +
to deal death with astonishing agility.
 +
The varsÿms prefer fi ghting with aweapon in each hand, as they seemingly dance around the enemy.
 +
At the top of the chain of command of the Dragon army,
 +
one will fi nd the asadars and the khidarÿms. Th ese warriors
 +
are equipped with fi ne armor that compensates for their frail
 +
elven constitution.
 +
Cynwäll troops are supported by distinctively shaped constructs
 +
organized into regiments led by magicians. Th ough
 +
the constructs might lack vivacity, it is their great resilience
 +
and unbreakable morale that makes them indispensable. Th e
 +
ranks of the constructs are sometimes overshadowed by the
 +
imposing fi gures of the novas that hold a weapon in each of
 +
their four arms, while the pulsars are hybrids with the upper
 +
body of a nova mounted on a great war wheel.
 +
High above the mêlée glide the dragons, the most noble and
 +
most powerful creatures of Aarklash. Free roaming or ridden
 +
by dragon-knights, these titans fi ll the hearts of the enemy with
 +
terror and leave nothing but smoking ashes in their wake.
