History of Saiwavolc

The Saiwavolc are a tribe who dwell in the marshy areas of the Vale. They're shorter than other men of the Vale, but don't have a shorter lifespan than others. Before The Formation of The confederation of the Vale, The Saiwavolc were led my the chieftain Ludwig, who was generally seen as a bad ruler. When Wodan invaded the marshes, they were met by a fierce resistance by Ludwig's men, but Ludwig was killed in the battle of Suthwerpen. Because Ludwig had died childless, his cousin, Farwald, became the chieftain. Farwald quickly made a peace treaty with Wodan. Wodan made him the honorary chieftain, but he was assassinated by Ludwig's supporters because he supposedly betrayed his country. His nephew; Egilhardt, became the next chieftain of Saiwavolc, and was crowned in the city of Suthwerpen.

Childhood

Egilhardt is the only son of a great Archer, Dreux, he fighted many armies of orcs that where send from sauron, due the fact that he was a good archer he became a warchief and helped the king of the vales a lot and swore an oath to help the king. But becuase Dreux wasn't at home alot, the child had only a mother to raise him. But in the eyes of Egilhardt was his Father a true hero. His First part of his life was a hard part because he grew up without father after his first six years he started his warrior training. He trained a lot even when it was night he sneaked out the sleeping rooms to train. He was driven by the idea to become so good as his father.

Military Academy

after his training at the village of Eldihz he decided to go to the military academy at Suþwerpen. Half way the night felt and he decide to get some rest. He hired a room at the local in, the Dancing Rune. While he was walking down the streets he saw three mistyrious looking men walking. they where looking if they came of an other side of the World. They had turbans on on their heads. He remembered something from Geography and Culture lessons. They were people from the Great Suth (Harad).. What where those foreigners doing so far from home? He decide to get some sleep. The next day he arrived at the millitary school. he also visited his unlce. Why he was drinking some beer with his uncle. they heard someone knocking on the door. his uncle opened and they saw an envoy, who had a message for his uncle. Farwald took the letter and opened it, and his face was getting more in shock after he was reading trought it. Then he said: "Egilhardt, I'm sorry but, your father and mother are murdered".

Battle Of Suthwerpen

He did go through with the military academy. After 5 years of hard training he was ready to serve the chieftain. He had searched an inn to get some rest so he could travel to the Chief's House at the sunrise. When he arrived at the Chief's House he joined the army under lead of Ludvig. And Ludwig was a bad chieftain, he didn't know how to plan or fight. They were told that Wodan had become corrupted and joined together with the haradrim. this was the main reason why Egilhardt joined the army to take revenge of the death of his parents. Ludvig told his army that Wodan wanted to invate their tribe. and that their meeting point would be the marshes. Egilhardt and the other Archers had found a place between the bushes to kill the army of betrayers and haradrim. When the army of Wodan arrived the Battle Started. At the battle Egilhardt got shot near his stomach and was got into a melee fight with Adalwulf, the son of Wodan. He asked Adalwulf: "Why did your father command the Haradrim to kill my parents?" Then Adalwulf answered: "He did not. Our spies have been telling that your chieftain has used the Haradrim to wrest the control of the throne!" Then Egilhardt said: " Oh, the damn liars! They have fooled me..." and he passed out. Adalwulf told his comrades to carry him to the hospital. After he woke up he was lying not in a camp but at the military academy hospital place. He had heard that Ludvig was killed in action and that his uncle had signed a treaty with Wodan, and became the honorary chieftain of Saiwavolc.

Before Coronation

While he was laying awake he was wondering what happend to the guy he met on the battlefield. Was he killed or not ? He finally fell asleep. At midnight he heard screams outside. He woke up and looked out the window and saw a giant smoke cloud comming out the chieftain's house. Egilhardt took some clothes and his bow and started to run. to the Chieftain's house where his uncle lived. When he arrived he saw one of Ludvig's fanatical supporters swinging around with a sword. He took his bow and fired an arrow on the guy, he killed him instantly. Then he saw the chieftain's house it, which was bathing in flames. He didn't see his uncle anywhere. He fell on his knees and started crying for an other loss.

Soon other townspeople arrived at the house, and saw the house in flames. A few firefighters prevented the flames from spreading across the city. Wodan and Adalwulf ran there. Wodan was very ill, but rather energic man in his fifties, and had an purple tunic, black leather pants and a Golden Crown with diamonds and mithril decorating it.

Adalwulf said: "I remember you! What happened here, by the way?". Egilhardt told Adalwulf everything what he saw, and soon two wodaning guards had captured the other pyromaniacs. Wodan then told every soldier who fought for Ludvig would have been pardoned, and then he asked would anyone want to join his expedition to the Eastern Rhovanion.

Becoming A Chieftant

2 weeks after the murder, Wodan  decided to make Egilhardt chieftain of the Saiwavolc. There would be a coronation the next full moon. Wodan came back to Suthwerpen to crown Egilhardt. His sons, Adalwulf and Siegfried traveled with their father to Suthwerpen. While the coronation was going on Adalwulf noticed some suspicious looking people with poisoned knifes, and he decide to follow them. He sneaked behind them with his sword ready. He saw how those Ludvig-Supporters climbed on the wall and drew a bow out and then he noticed that they got a perfect shot on Egilhardt. He used his foot to kick the first Ludvig-Supporter down the wall. This one crushed his teeth on the stones beneath, he probally couldn't eat meat ever again. Then Adalwulf attacked other Ludvig-supporters. But there were so many he couldn't keep them all at bay. At the time the first Ludvig-loyalist had met the ground. Egilhardt saw this and took his bow and looked from where he came and saw that Adalwulf was in a tricky situation, and he started to shoot at the loyalists after the little fight. The ones who survived were sent to jail and the ones who where dead where thrown for the pigs and others abandoned in the swamps. The coronation continue on. After the coronation Egilhardt thanked Adalwulf. Adalwulf, Siegfried, Egilhardt, Wodan and the others would eat and drink til the midnight. The next day the loyalists were executed, by hanging them up at their toes and let them dry out in the sun. Adalwulf asked Wodan: "Was this really necessary?". Wodan answered: "Well, when you become the king you will understand these things." And then Adalwulf, Siegfried, Wodan and their army left the town with their army, to the lands of East.

Wodan died of natural causes a a year later, and Adalwulf became the king of The Vale. Adalwulf told Egilhardt that the expedition was not worth it, as they only got small traces of land, and many soldiers sacrificed their lives for a Lake and a Mountain. Egilhardt became a good friend of Adalwulf and some other  Chieftains of the Vale. Adalwulf also gave Egilhardt some gifts later. Two urns, full of dust, gold, architectural plans and silver.
