Ascension of Nomog-Geaya
Celestial / CosmicThe God Wars in Westeros reach an uneasy truce. A number of new gods ascended having found the essence of a defeated god. One of these is Nomog-Geaya, a powerful Hobgoblin warlord of the dark forces. His ascension brings divine power to the Hobgoblin's across Delrind, this is especially important to the fractured and weak brigades spread across Alphatia who have had little support from the gods. His divine powers began to unite the Hobgoblins under a single banner that makes them a recognisable threat across the islands.
