Somilar will possibly be an orc from the Ironclaw Hills some time in the distant future.

History[]

In a potential future, the children in the Ironclaw Hills start dreaming of a war 3000 years in the past, where the merfolk of the islands and the Benalish from the plains make war on the races of the mountains - orcs, goblins, dwarves and centaurs. The children start temporarily vanishing during sleep and waking up bruised and battered. Kalin's orcish daughter Somilar and Spenggra's dwarven son Kebwin are among those afflicted. In their dreams, they are adults fighting actively in the war, and their wounds carry on into waking. They talk about some woman whose life is worth saving, no matter the cost. Eventually, the strange dreaming stops, but by then Somilar is catatonic and Kebwin is dead. [1]
