Nearly three months to the day after Auberon departed Albion, the Trolls ofStrathclyde brought before Grogan~ their Warchief, a young Elven captain captured in a border mid into Albion. Put to the question, the soldier revealed what he knew of the King's absence, On the advice of his court witch, Callach, the Troll warchief despatched his captive north into the land of Moray there to once again be put to the question for the edification of Imric Troll-Lord, Master of Moray and Speaker of the Clans. As leader of the Fomorian Confederation Of the North. It was Imric's task to weigh the effect of such information upon the tenuous balance of power between the Fomorians and their hereditary enemies, the Elves.
