Tor Sír, capital of Sirfaldris in the Spiteful Peaks

The Farstriders of Ghrond seldom find themselves in their ancestral homelands; more often they are raiding abroad, spreading their dominion over others and consolidating the base of their power. Deep within the Spiteful Peaks, however, lays a dark paradise. Nestled in a series of three valleys, left temperate and fertile by the warm descending winds off the Serpent’s Spine, lies Sirfaldris. As if to mirror the spiritual balance of the light and dark sides of the elven psyche, Sirfaldris often enjoys a respite from the typical harshness of Naggaroth’s weather. Balancing the forces of nature, truly this is a place of purity, dedicated to the cruel, natural laws of Kurnous. 


Nestled at the base of the central valley, is a mighty inland lake, fed by a central underway spring and empyting out into three strong rivers that cascade down out of the Peaks. Built on and around the shores of the lake lies Tor Sír. Built in the time just following the Black Arks and founded as a testament to the glories of Nagarythe of old, Tor Sír has grown in leaps and bounds despite its remote locale. Fueled by the more pleasant weather and bountiful natural resources from local mines and waterways, combined with the spoils of raids abroad, the city is a force to be reckoned with. Here Esakh and Enlil rule without question, holding court with their family, and celebrating the ebb and flow of the winds of fate.


Tor Sír is a natural citadel, surrounding on all sides by difficult terrain – the roads and waterways into and out of the city are easily-defended, natural chokepoints. The center of the city is dominated by tremendous twin spires, which serve as palace, home, and court of the Dreadlord and Lady. Dwarven slaves erected the megalithic structure through painstaking labor, gathering materials from the ample mines of the Spiteful Peaks. Smaller than any other druchii city, size is not everything, and House Sirfalas endeavors to keep beneath the notice of the Witch King by remaining steadfastly loyal to their oaths as Naggarothi while remaining frugal in their growth and exercise of power.
