City of Nepeth
In the years 485-487 the great Orc-war was fought. It is also known as the War of Faith. The war lasted for nearly 3 years. Hordes of orcs came in from the southwest and the west. Humans from all over the Realm gathered in Nepeth and the castle. An army was equipped by King Arnog, Drin's father. Arnog himself died from the wound of a stray arrow mere months before the war ended, leaving Drin in charge of the troops in those final battles. A task King Drin was more than able to handle. It is said that in the final battle, which raged for three long days, Drin single-handedly killed close to two hundred orcs, leading his troops to a grand victory.
