Volume IX

As she entered the portal to Antonica, Kzaeka Ta'Vra, a master dark knight of Innoruuk, prepared for her journey to the Commonlands to aide her brothers and sisters in the time of Hate. Upon her arrival to the forsaken land, she quickly raised several evil creatures from the dead.

Her newly created minions roamed the Commonlands slaying anyone that got in their way. Trens Treesap, a mere halfling, gathered as many volunteers as he could to try to fight off dark powers as Kzaeka warned them that they will all soon bow down to the Prince of Hate.

Unfortunately, despite her triumphs over hundreds of attackers, Kzaeka Ta'Vra was soon defeated.

Forces hailing from Freeport, Qeynos and all about Faydwer continued to steel their nerves defending off attackers on what proved to be a bloody and dangerous day.

All Hail and Praise Innoruuk! Hail his powers that shall soon take control over all!

Overview

Drawn from Stormhold — compiled history.EQ2Community article · best available source

Located on the eastern end of Antonica, Stormhold is the ruins of the once-great underground fortress of the Knights of Thunder. It’s a complex maze of hallways where dangerous undead Knights roam freely.

To locate Stormhold, ride a Griffin to the Thundering Steppes Tower, head on a north road, then turn into the hills toward Gnollsayer’s Keep.

History

Lord Chesgard was a legendary member of a long-dead knightly order known as the Knights of Thunder. It was during one of his many adventures, a crusade into a cursed bunker of the hills in the Commonlands, that Lord Chesgard would claim his greatest prize, the Bone Bladed Claymore. Unfortunately for all of his order, the sword would not be the only arcane force to return with Chesgard. Something dark and evil was beginning to take hold of him.

When Lord Chesgard returned to Qeynos, he oversaw the construction of a mighty keep called Stormhold, but evil began to slowly seep into his mind and the design of the citadel itself became twisted and corrupted. Eventually this evil rose to the surface, and all within Stormhold were lost.

Stormhold Levels

The underground fortress consists of three levels.
