A century ago the people of Eissackdale lived in harmony under the guidance of Sir Gilehad of Kortis. The Paladin ruled with a fair and just hand and kept the Eissackers united for decades. His life was cut short when he was then killed while defending the small city of Greuth during a goblin invasion. The city was destroyed, but the death of Gilehad gave the Eissackers the resolve they needed to turn back the goblinoid. After his death the unity of the dale was threatened, so the elders called the god Kortis for aid. Their prayers were heard and the god appeared before them. Kortis told them to build a tomb from the ruins of their city and leave the site, not to return for ten years. Kortis explained that a great forest would grow around the tomb, and Kortis made the Eissackers promise not to enter the tomb. If they kept the oath, Kortis promised to bring Sir Gilehad back to life and their beloved Paladin would once again become lord of the lands.

The people of Greuth built the tomb and left their homeland. Most emigrated to Earlsdale in the south, but some stayed nearby. Those who stayed divided into two factions, each establishing a village at different
points along the Kelm river.

It has been nearly hundred years since the Oath was taken.
