Editing The Alrennean War (section)

== The Last Stand at Garrod ==
While Alrenn's forces traveled south, the Third Horde had already arrived at Garrod, though at roughly 2/3rds of its original size. Garrod was the largest and most powerful city in Akhentour at the time, and another 1/3rd of the Third Horde were cut down by the military there through a spirited strategic offensive devised by [[Ballock Hornsreid|Captain Ballock]] of the [[Garrod United Resistance]]. The First and Second Hordes arrived in midspring 4062 VR and began the real siege of the city, eventually taking it in late summer of the same year. Alrenn made Garrod his new base, and established a strong magic ward there to prevent anyone from entering the city via teleportation or shifting magic.

At the same time, the [[Kavonne League of Adventurers]] (KLA) had sent a small adventuring group south to follow the First Horde. This group eventually infiltrated Garrod and entered [[Castle Garrod]], where they flushed out Alrenn and began a fight against him. Meanwhile, other members sneaked into the basement of the castle and successfully stole Alrenn's phylactery, though their rogue, [[Petra Uldane]], was killed by the death knight [[Whim]] attempting to escape.

On the surface, the phylactery was shifted into the [[Planes of Existence|Plane of Fire]] by the sorcerer [[Narellyn Ambersole]], while the wizard [[Demetrius]] was able to contain the body of Alrenn before dying himself. In fact, all of the members of the party were thought killed except for [[Ian van Montelle]], who survived and escaped Old Garrod.

=== The Betrayal ===
Decades later, it was revealed that Narellyn had been manipulated by Alrenn, who likely knew of the group's pursuit. The sorcerer was meant to sow discord among the adventuring party and make them separate in Garrod, where they could be picked off one by one. But in the end, Narellyn betrayed Alrenn by throwing his phylactery into the Plane of Fire. Alrenn responded by casting ''power word stun'' on Narellyn, freezing him in place as lava from the Plane of Fire burned his body to a crisp. Narellyn awoke in a cloned body in the ruins of Ogoni (presumably made by Alrenn), and escaped Avo via ''plane shifting''. He was later discovered by his daughter, [[Glendower Brightraven|Glendower]], and a joint force of [[Dragonslayers]] and two individuals from the world of [[Other Worlds|Eberron]]. Narellyn had a ''modify memory'' spell placed on him to forget his betrayal and attempt a new life as a man named Fog on the plane of [[Planes of Existence|Mechanus]]. He was retrieved by the adventurers, his memory reinstated, and he was put on trial in Kavonne in 4091 VR and subjected to 30 years of imprisonment, but was released after 20 years for good behavior.
