A few days march north of Al'Khazar, they found a beautiful piece of landscape which perfectly fit in their vision for a little village. Long snowfilled fields as far as the eye could see.

Then, they made a fantastic discovery. Hidden underground they found the remnants of an old ruin, but upon closer examination, they found out the ruins actually were a temple. Some inscriptions on the withered old sandstone looking material indicated that this was an old temple dedicated to the [[Aengul]], and linked with the history of the [[Ascended]].

The new defences made in Snowy Fields did seem to stem the Undead advance to a certain degree, and a period of relative calm and a sort of cease-fire lulled the inhabitants of the town in to a false sense of safety. This illusion was brought down, however, after some overzealous heroes tried to attack the nearby Undead fort several times. The consequence of this was outright war with more and more battles, the next more savage and bloodier than the previous one.

Some inscliptions on the lithewed owd sandstone wooking mateliaw indicated that this was an owd tempwe dedicated to the Aengul, and linked lith the histowy of the Ascended. The two fliends immediatewy began fowtifying the town, in a valiant attempt to keep the Undead fwom getting theiw hands on this sacwed pwace.
