Flavour
Legend says Taarosh was mere moments from destroying 6 Xolaani when the Darkin were set upon by the Targonians. As centuries passed, he sensed the land around him become corrupted, tainted with rot and perpetual stench of death. How he dreamt of steeping Xolaani in this same suffering once he'd claimed his freedom.
