Kuntarra

Around the time of ~3000 BSS a group of Talawan aristocracy, namly those who enjoyed practicing magic left their homelands after many generations of persecution. Their ill treatment came from the type of magic they practised. It was destructive and unstable and had occasionally claimed many innocent lives. Some had open rifts in reality where they would be suked in never to be seen again. As such they decided it was best to leave and travel south to the continent of Haven. This was during troubled times in the Old Kingdoms therefore the other nobles did not know the true purpose of this groups self exile. In their eyes they were but cowards fleeing the war.

The Journey
In the begining they were 16 noble houses but as the group traveld from kingdom to kingdom thier numbers grew. They were no longer a few noble familys but an exodus. When the people had reached the Hapat desert and the fringes of the Talawan kingdoms they numbered around 5000. They kept marching south across the desert and through the forests leafy forest until they were meet by a huge mountain chain. They sent scouts to the east and west but they found no pass through the mountains. This was it they had found their safe sanctuary their kuntarra. As long as they could make it over the mountains they would be safe no one would follow them here. The mountains were steep and desert elves where not used to the cold at such altitudes. 1/5 of those who climbed would not make it to the other side, but those who made it found a fertile valley teeming with wildlife. The mountain chain was named the Mountains of Kuntarra and this new Talawan kingdom was to be known as the Kingdom of Kuntarra. The entire journey had taken around 40 years to complete.

The Kingdom of Kuntarra
The leader who guided the people to their new homeland sadly parised during the march over the mountains along with 5 other noble houses. The remaining 11 houses held a vote to decide who their ruler and king should be. They picked a talented mage from the house Harkis who were crowed the first King of Kuntarra in the year 2957 BSS.
