The Trinity Throne

In the fantasy story of the same name, "The Trinity Throne", the Trinity Throne is an ancient stone throne that resides in the center of Fjorgallahar, and is the object of desire for the Nordlandics, the Vaykians, and the Myr who wish to claim it and rule over all kingdoms of the earth, heavens, and sea.

Creation & Discovery
There are no accurate accounts of when the Trinity Throne was created or by whom. Fjorgallahar is described as an island fortress that simply rose out of the sea spontaneously, with its meticulous innards already carved into the form of a throne room, and so the ongoing belief is that the creation of the throne was by some powerful force of nature that no one yet understands. Although it does not inherently posses any special features other than being a symbol of power, it is largely believed that whomever sits on the throne is granted command over the Earth, Heavens, and Seas by a divine phrase carved into the throne:

“Á Allgardt, á Myrdja, á Gallahar

Up reagis appen nesz

Ei guddemlicht, ei absoljon

Ik mer batte Syven Aor”

“On Earth, on the Seas, on Heaven

One rules until the next

In divinity, in absolution

No more than Seven Years”

The Dodaanic monk, Saxon III, discovered Fjorgallahar, and subsequently its throne within, during his pilgrimage from Madraheim to the far west. During High Tide, Saxon's ship went down, but a "whispering silver fog" thought to be coming from the spirit realm drew the monk to the rocky shores of Fjorgallahar. His stories of what he saw in the depths of the rocky fortress were passed down to a scribe of the church on his deathbed, for Saxon III insisted a great evil resided there. bover the next hundred years

The First Crossing
The First Crossing is described as the first attempt that the Nordlandic, Thaelfagen, and Myr rulers made over the Tjor Sea in race to Fjorgallahar, to crown themselves the Trinity King/Queen by being the first to physically sit on the Trinity Throne. At the time, the competitors did not understand the concept of a Trillian Tide and made the attempt during a rough storm that encased Fjorgallahar. The First Crossing was attempted by:


 * Hameth Baargold, Chief of Nordham
 * Tjor of Mjol
 * Umyami

All three perished during their attempts. Hameth Baargold's ship was swallowed by the sea. Tjor of Mjol was struck by lightning mid-flight. Umyami was thrown by currents into sharp rocks.

Following the failure of the First Crossing, throne heirs were devised in order to spare actual heirs from succumbing to a tragic death, to represent their factions as crowned kings or queens. The first throne heirs were typically indirect descendants of nobility who were not directly in line for their individual faction's thrones. The first throne heirs to compete were:


 * Bjarne Baargold (brother of Hameth)
 * Alod of Thael (uncle of Tjor)
 * Atsut (cousin of Umyami)
