During the shattering, the high elven mage Balaran attempted to summon forth the salamanders to aid in the defense of the Temple of Vol Tuniel. While the summoning was a success, things went horribly wrong and Balarans plan backfired. The salamander Vi'Rak clan was pulled through the portal against their will. Through anger they have slain Balaran and those with him.
Now they seek revenge on all of Telon and with the strength of the six clans of the Tempest, they may succeed. The Vi'Rak clan has finally called forth and united with the other five clans, tucking themselves away in the depths of the Temple of Vol Tuniel to unlock their secret plan to unleash destruction on Telon.
