One day a fellow slave named Aren revealed a plan that would help win the elves their freedom. This plan would require the sacrifice of many elves, but their sacrifice would allow countless others to survive and escape their masters and tormentors. Arneas was the first to volunteer. As he willingly give his spirit to help fuel the spell that would rock the continent with explosive force at several key locations he prayed that his ancestors would receive him. This was the story told to Kaelas by his mother every night so that he would better know his ancestor and the sacrifice he made to ensure the freedom of the Elvin people. Not just know him, but revere him. Thus, it was a great honor and a day of celebration when Kaelas's ancestor, Arneas, began to speak to him; not through words, but through insight and emotion. Arneas began to grant Kaelas insight into combatative maneuvers that had not been seen for thousands of years. He was destined for greatness, his family believed that one day he would take his place in the Undying Court as his his ancestor had been unable to. Then The Last War began. The elves watched with only slight interest as the humans of Korvaire fought for scraps of land an power. That was until a Cyran Noble approached Vadallia, a powerful noble within the Tairnadal, and brokered a deal. The nation of Cyre would pay handsomely for elven mercenaries. As more and more elves were sent to fight, Kaelas longed to be considered worthy of joining the Valaes Tairn. Then one day his dream came true, he was called to Korvaire and received his first mission: drive out the Cyrans, kill if necessary and reclaim the land of the Valaes Tairn. He was told that the land had always belonged to the Tairnadal and they had bought it back with their blood. This made Kaelas uneasy, but he was raised to obey his superiors and so he drove out the Cyrans with the rest of the Valenar army. Finally The Day of Mourning happened and thousands of Cyran fled from their blighted land only to be slaughtered in cold blood by the Valaes Tairn. For Kaelas and Arneas this was too much, from that day Kaleas rejected his people and vowed to make right the wrongs of his people.[/sblock]</p><p></p><p>[sblock=Recently]King Boranel of the human land of Breland has annexed a portion of land for Cyran refugees.

He was forced to slay his beloved warhorse for nourishment and considers that to be the last tie to his old life with the Valaes Tairn.
