Hallowed Land

The term Hallowed Land refers to an ancient civilization located in what is now the swamplands of Morytania. Its prime age was during the second age. The capital city of the Hallowed Lands is Hallowvale. King Ascertes Hallow ruled this land along with his wife, Queen Efarity. Ascertes and his wife ruled for some 820 years, their race's lifespan far beyond that of humans. During this time, the Hallowed Land was said to have flourished, its many peaceful settlements existing as far north as the Northern Sea. However, during the God Wars, the vampyre Lord Lowerniel Vergidiyad Drakan attacked the Hallowed Land, managing to take King Ascertes captive. This forced Queen Efarity to surrender.

Ascertes and his wife are presumably deceased, executed or imprisoned until their deaths. However, a slim chance exists that they may still live today. An even slimmer chance exists that Safalaan Hallow, the current leader of the Myreque and commander in the Sanguinesti Liberation War, may be somehow related to Ascertes.
