Reign

Grand King Torvin started off in a stable position, the Treaty of the Northern Union (The Northern Treaty) still intact. When The Holy Oren Empire sought to purge the orcs in the Invasion of Asul; Torvin sent his assistance. However this saddened Torvin, later when the Orcish refugees asked for shelter, he decided to give them a piece of land somewhere in the desert near the hold of Zahrer Irongrinder. Torvin tried everything to restore Yemekar's Balance, he helped them constructing a city and gave them supplies to arm them for if they had to defend themselves. A few years later a great and tactical dwarf, known as Belgor Ireheart, came back to the dwarven kingdom. He offered his service in the Legion and after a heavy discussion with him, Torvin's current marshal, they decided to make Belgor Ireheart the new Grand Marshal. Later with the Snow Elf conflict he decided that Oren's aggresive policy was getting out of control. He decided to aid the Grand Prince Aelthir Tundrak II unofficially by sending most of his force on their side, all of them disguised and masked. The Grandking and a few other legionnaires joined the side of the Holy Orenian Empire to make this look unsuspicious. However, even with the Grandking's aid, the Princedom of Fenn was defeated and their fortress was taken away. Later he gave the Grand Prince and his people a place to stay in the city of Kal'Nikaer.


Later with the death of Emperor John Owyn Horen and the ascension of Philip Frederick Horen to emperor his aggressive policy threatened the Northern Treaty and opened up into conflict over the Azaghol Incident, where the emperor threatened to invade the Dwarven desert. Torvin tried to maintain the peace, but in this he failed. A senate meeting was called to discuss immediate issues by Zahrer Irongrinder, although the outcome initially unintentional removed Grand King Torvin Grandaxe from the throne, with Frostbeard, Ireheart, and Doomforged backing and opposed by the Grandaxes.


Following his removal Torvin entered self-exile and has not been seen since.
