Few Nosmeni find themselves tied to Glanbeli. Yet fate would bring a young wayward girl on a path of self-destruction to find hope in Glanbeli’s life, and turn her life anew. Tharia was thus reborn in her new name under the guidance of the Priestesses of Glanbeli. She was sent to Lo Fuin to serve under the tutelage of Kadna Glydrin, where she became an anointed Cleric in the Grand Temple of Glanbeli. Now she is overseeing her own operation after guiding a group of Dark Dwarves to refuge, seeing a troubling sight before her.

The daughter of a mistress of a backwater Belfrian bordello, Eldrana was an outcast in her small town for being one of the few Nosmeni, even in the diverse backdrop of the “Melting Pot” kingdom. Every insult under the sun came to her and her mother, and those insults followed them even when they would move to the city of Velandria to try start anew. Though her mother left without her, and Eldrana was left at the mercy of the townsfolk, where few took pity on her. As a result she was forced to life of petty crime as an urchin, begging when she could and stealing when she could no longer beg. She was fortunate enough to catch the eye of a priestess of Glanbeli, who was passing through town and felt her heart bleed for the abandoned child. She offered to take Eldrana to Velandria to find her mother, but the young Nosmeni knew that even if they did find her in that sprawling city, it was unlikely she would want anything to do with her daughter.

Thus the priestess offered the bright moon Glanbeli as her new mother, should Eldrana wish to accept and give her life in servitude to the unborn goddess. Though she knew little of Glanbeli save for folk tales, she took on the Moon as her patron, with the belief that if her followers were as kind as this priestess, she would find a warm home for herself. Though never would she imagine that home would be on the other side of the continent, thousands of feet below the surface in the depths of the Underground, the home of the Drow. Though she felt uneasy there, surrounded by exotic Elves speaking a strange and guttural tongue, she soon found the tongue would come to her naturally and the Drow there saw her as their sister and daughter, regardless of her infernal features. She was accepted amongst them, and ordained as a Cleric of Glanbeli after several decades of training under the tutelage of Kadna Glydrin, the High Priestess. It was in this time she took on her new name as Tharia, forgoing any final connections she had to her past life.

Now after guiding a group of Dark Dwarves to sanctuary in their kin’s homeland of Dornat Al Karit, Tharia finds herself in a precarious position. A group of unholy creatures were collecting the corpses of fallen Dwarves and Troggs in the wake of the Rupture and its subsequent battles, and after following the creatures she espied them loading the bodies onto boats in the dead of night, where they were thus taken somewhere over the horizon in the Katarn Sea. Now Tharia leads an expedition to the isle where they believe the bodies were transported, aiming to uncover what foul manner of dark magic is using the corpses, and for what purpose.
