Chronology[edit | edit source]
Volume 4[edit | edit source]
Osthia and six other Ancestor Guard Drakes who were capable of flight were commanded by Thrissiam to scout for the Goblin Lord's forces within the High Passes. On the first scouting mission, Osthia's team didn't find any sign of Goblins, but she could feel that something was watching her.
Days later, Thrissiam sends Osthia's winged Drakes to watch over the army's scouting parties, as a dozen Drakes and Gnolls had gone missing. Despite Osthia's efforts, they were unable to find a trace of the missing [Scouts]. Later, Osthia had been resting in the camp when Goblins and undead attack from multiple directions. She had been alone, separated from her company. She encountered gray exploding Zombies, and found that they could be countered by having their ranged forces priortize them. She used an acid-like spitting ability to destroy one of the gray Zombies. Soon after, Osthia saw the Goblin Lord for the first time. He had been overseeing the attack from a distance.
During the Goblin assault Thrissiam and Garusa's relationship became known to Osthia, who had been upset. She had been wanting to romance Thrissiam, a distant cousin and uncle. Enraged, Osthia spotted the Goblin Lord and took a chance on attacking him. She was shot out of the air and fell behind enemy lines. Garusa saved her by leading a charge straight through the Goblins to rescue Osthia. Her respect for the Gnoll grew, however she still hated her for winning Thrissiam's affection, if fleetingly, during the assault.
Osthia assisted Garusa in Thrissiam's planned ambush. Despite this, Az'kerash intervenes to protect the Goblin Lord and killed Garusa. Osthia's fellow Oldblood soldiers had been killed as well as a swathe of their army. They were then brought to life to attack their remaining forces. She was bid by Thrissiam to fly away and flee, to warn the rest of the cities of what happened. Despite her flight, she was captured. She soon witnessed the Goblin Lord and Az'kerash talking to each other through the Goblin Lord's body. After Az'kerash's lecturing, she spat acid at the Goblin Lord to no affect thanks to his Ring of Protection and [Ward of Repulsion]. He insisted that he and Osthia had a common enemy: Az'kerash, and demanded that she tell him of what Drakes knew of the Necromancer.

- (To Goblin Lord) “Kill me. Or do what you want. You’ll get no secrets out of me.”
- (To Goblin Lord) “No. He was—is—was—a Human. We don’t memorize their histories. If you want to learn more, read a book. If you can read, that is.”
- (To Greybeard) “You think he’s a hero, don’t you? That monster—you called him a slave, but you Goblins follow him even if he turns all of you into undead.”
- (To Greybeard) “It sounds like any one of them would be a disgrace. If that’s the standard for a Goblin Lord, I pity your race.”
