The goodfolk of Furyondy were instrumental in the Elemental War but paid greatly for their contribution, or so the legend goes. Shortly after leading the great victorious Battle of Emridy Meadows, the much-beloved Crown Prince Thrommel III disappeared. Betrothed to Jolene, daughter of the Plar of Veluna, and serving as Provost of that state, the Prince was poised to join these two major powers of Good with a formal ceremony celebrating their love. The highly anticipated wedding never happened though. Short months after returning from the victory over Zuggtmoy's forces, the Prince vanished and was presumed kidnapped, sending the country reeling in grief and anger over their lost hero. The truth has never been uncovered and he remains missing to this day. Rumors abounded that the act was last-ditch revenge supported by some surviving faction of the Temple. Others believe the Scarlet Brotherhood or agents of Iuz were involved. Now more than twenty years in the past, the likely abduction has been blended with the Prince's great victory in bards' tales so that many songs and poems now lament of his capture during the Battle of Emridy Meadows. Historians remember the events more correctly, however.
