Mia 26th 7106

Staria, the last of the 6 wives died. Doc examines the body and found she had been dosed with a necrotic poison. The food she ate was destined for Eldar but she could not help but nibble on it on the way to the room. For the first time since he left the Academy, he walked the road alone. He had people around him, but they were not his wives. Eldar Ket the 5 consorts on for his year of mourning.

Feba 27th 7107

If events had taught them anything, if their parents taught them anything, it was that they needed to live their own lives. Branus, Dolus, Helia, Milas, Violoa, and Zandem Silvertree. Together they formed the Spirit of Silver Adventuring Group in honor of the mothers and the grandfather they never knew.

Septa 5th 7107

Added by Commander Tranosa Dusk Moon

On a patrol along the southern border, a group of a hundred or more Ogres charged from the woods in the valley away from the fort. Six Ogre Magi destroyed the two nearest watch towers but not before the signal went up. They headed into Silvertree Woods and the battle was pitched and very costly. 18 centaurs, 7 dwarves, 8 humans, and 20 elves were lost. Including Eldar Silvertree.

Eldar faced off against an Ogre General and the two of them struck killing blows against each other. The Ogre General's embed holy symbol shattered when pierced by the Moon Blade. The Dark Necrotic blade destroyed Eldar's holy symbol causing a massive explosion opening a hole a mile wide. Splintering all the trees in the area.

I, Tranosa Dusk Moon, lost my right eye from watching the events unfold. I approached Eldar's position. Two days prior he had married six women again. A pair of wood-elves, gold-elves, and snow-elves. The Snow-elves were younger sisters to Doc. Each is expecting twins but they know they will only have the one set.

The Masters Training band could only be given to one Blade Singer. Eldar's daughter and New Commanding General of the Gray Blades Duchess Zaria'fay Silvertree. She was not the Eldest but the children did not wish to separate the role of Command General and control over the Duchy. It was overwhelming. He fathered thirty-one children with another twelve on the way.

Eldar only lived 176 years, graduated 8 Grand Master Blade Singers including three of his own children. His funeral was conducted like his father. The ashes used to plant a new Silvertree in the center of the devastated area of Silvertree Woods.

Word had it that the Silvertree in town spewed out over 100 seeds and the people have reported seeing them landing in areas that they were still planting seedlings. The forest was almost complete. They soon received word from the Human Queen, The Great Grand Daughter of the young princess, that they had met the terms for reclaiming the land. The Elven Forest Eldar sought to reclaim has been completed.

The Silvertree Moon Blade was found three miles away by his son and Battle Mage. Hours before the funeral. The new destined wielder Branar'Lortan Silvertree. Led to it by a Dream. He left town soon after. Not saying where he was going or why.

The proxy for the Blade holder went to Eldar's brother regardless of the child who claimed the blade. As the eldest Blade Singer from his line. He would help guide the house to follow the code by which the blade was bound. Victria became the Elder for that branch of House Silvertree. It was the smallest branch of the tree at the time.
