This is the last of my trilogy of stories about the Aldryami and the Spike, following on from "How Flamal Met the Tribes" and "The Fall of the White Elves".
“The First War”
A Story of the Green Age told by Vralto Elmorider of Tarinwood

When I read "Orstan the Elder" in The Book of Heortling Mythology, I decided that the elves must have more to say on the topic.

“The Tree That Was Seduced by Uleria”
A Green Age tale recorded and annotated by Meatman, assistant to Fethela Fodronu
La suite ici.
In one of the Heortling Myths (I think) there was a brief aside about a Wandering Forest in the Darkness. And I thought: that bears further thought.
“The Wandering Forest”
A Myth of the Black Age from the Chronicles of Fethela Fodronu

What better story for Mother's Day than how the Children of the Taker assaulted the Earth Mother herself?
“The Sundering of Gata”
A Myth of the Black Age from the Chronicles of Fethela Fodronu
La suite ici.
This week, I intended to write a myth about Aldryami undead, based on some great discussion a few months ago. But in backstopping that story, I came up with a lot of details about how the Aldryami underworld came to be, and that ended up being the myth for today. (Aldryami undead are still to follow!)
“The Cry for Trigora”
A Myth of the Red Age collected from Tarinwood by Fethela Fodronu
La suite ici.
Recently, someone asked about alliances between Aldryami and the animals of the forest.
I told him that I knew of one such accord in Dragon Pass, between the Tallseeds of the Stinking Forest and their battle deer.
I've already written some about this all in the Elf Pack I'm working on.
Here's a short myth that has existed as a few notes for a while.
“How the Battle Deer Came to Westwood”
A Myth of the Red Age from the Chronicles of Fethela Fodronu

For the last two Rune Masters of this six-issue MOTM run, our attention turns to the Elder Races of Glorantha.
This supplement presents Ehnval Tallspear, a stern Wood Lord of Aldrya.
Found near his native woods north of Esrolia, his description includes advice and adventure seeds for the gamemaster for use as either friend or foe.
In addition to describing Ehnval, this issue includes:
. Treasures galore, from a collection of minor Elvish Trinkets to a description of the Living Copper cultivated in dryad groves and rarely seen by humankind.
. A cast of peculiar side characters—Andovar, a lovelorn Yelmalion elf, the irascible Ancient Runner, and the talking bear Borulgus.
This supplement is designed to be useful for RuneQuest players who only have the core rulebook.
It is recommended that the gamemaster also have the Glorantha Bestiary.
Familiarity of the Aldryami section of that work will enrich your experience with Ehnval Tallspear.
This week is about how Mee Vorala and Slor grew into those places that Flamal would not, and so brought the Grower to the whole world.
“Falamal’s Three Lost Seeds”
A Story of the Red Age writ by Fethela Fodronu

The Book of Heortling Myth (p. 144) briefly mentions how Asrelia "was young during the Green Age, and she roamed so far and wide across the body of her mother, the Earth, that the Heortlings now call it Asrelia's Age".
I've been wanting to write more about the Aldryami's interactions with other Earth goddesses, so I used that as the seed for the following, which I crafted while sitting out at Mahaulepu Beach yesterday.
As with my favorite myths, this one then let me add a few words of detail to one of my cult writeups for Elf Pack.
“Asrelia Gathers Her Treasures”
A Myth of the Black Age told in Arstola
