Story:Long time ago, before Calradia was ruled and fought-over by mighty kingdoms, houses (or noble families) held most of the power in the land. Magnificent cities and fortified castles were centers of knowledge and civilization, while the countryside and the hills were often pillaged by marauders, bandits and gangs of wild men. Strongest of these houses was the House Eaglewood. Their sigil and words "We own the sky" are still found in old texts and even on ancient statues, that can be found all over the continent. Both name of the house and the crest originate from the famous frozen forests and the mythical giant eagles that roamed them in the northern wasteland many ages ago. The house's rule and might, spanning over considerable part of the northern Calradia, was unmatched at that time, and their beautiful cities of Snowmound and Icethir were the wealthiest in all of the land. They were renown for the thick walls of grey marble, which were covered in centuries-old ice. The cities stood in place of nowadays Rivacheg and Khudan, which were built on the ruins of these ancient centers of power.
As renowned as these cities were, House Eaglewood was most famous by their armies and good tacticians. Their soldiers were selected at birth, and trained from early childhood to protect the house. House's elite warriors, called the Blue Cloaks, were the finest in all of Calradia, and rightfully feared for their skill, hardiness and cold character. Their inability to feel pain or fear (both caused by the harsh environment and training) gave them advantage over the common soldier.
The sudden disappearance of House Eaglewood in the Dark Age still raises questions about the reasons behind the occurrence. Some believe they were pushed out of the land by either marauders and pillagers, or the up-and-coming kingdoms that now ruled the land. Others thought the noble line of the house was broken, which caused the land to fall in chaos and eventually paved path to creation of new kingdoms . But the most common belief states that they migrated north, in search of riches and lands to conquer. Now the reasons seem irrelevant as the villages in the north reported sightings of huge armies heading south. Armies with a white and blue banner, carrying the sigil of this ancient house; and a distant song, echoing through the wind, to reach the villages only as a whisper to warn them of the brewing storm.
One farmer was unfortunate enough to get caught by scouts of this armies, but was given his life in order to deliver these words to rulers of Calradia:
"We own the sky. Now, we shall take the land."
