The armies of the northern savage lands, belonging to the skaven - grot alliance known as “Doom and Gloom”, continued their ongoing skirmishes with the Blood Coast Alliance in the lowlands of Aglia. Having dealt with the rat men I. Set piece battles in the west, the Alliance sent Idoneth and Sylvaneth hosts to seek out and get rid of the goblin forces known to be roaming the coastal plain.
The Idoneth encountered the diminutive greenskins first, during a heavy rainstorm while the grots were hunting for relics of the ancient civilisations thought to date back to the Age of Myth. The goblins stood off as the Idoneth advanced, wary of being flanked by Namarti thralls. Their caution was warranted, as a less than observant shaman found himself alone against them. He was swiftly avenged however, as angry and hungry squigs quickly counter attacked and removed the thrall threat.
More Idoneth moved up however, but every time the Deepkin forces moved up to assault the grots, the greenskins cut them down. As the rain lashed down and the plains became more akin to the ocean, the Idoneth were forced to concede defeat.
Weeks later, the grots were assaulted once more by the Alliance, this time in the mists and fog of the coastal regions. Alarielle herself was determined to remove the forces of destruction from Aglia, a region she had already marked out for settlement by her tree kin. The immortal goddess of life transported herself behind the goblin lines and despite their savage defence, Alarielle easily dealt with them. As the rest of the grot forces tried to march through the mists, a horde of angry dryads cut them down. Decimated, the goblins withdrew to the north, leaning Aglia in the hands of the elven kin.
