Carreg the Stonemason

Carreg, known as the Stonemason, was the leader of the unnamed Carreg's Tribe and builder/founder of Carreghael.

Childhood
Little to nothing is known of Carreg's upbringing. According to the runic slabs found in the cellars of Carreghael, Carreg was born somewhere in the East of ancient Xylon sometime around 230/40 AC, to the tribal leader Carfyg. Carfyg's tribe is as equally unknown as Carreg's.

The Building of Carreghael
According to the runic slabs, Carreg was instructed by Forhwyl, the God of Construction, to build a home from his tribe. According to the text, Forhwyl's exact words were "Build something anew/From what is already there", prompting Carreg to construct a new castle from an ancient mountain.

Construction on Carreghael commenced around 265/70 AC, and completed in 273 AC, according to the plaque above the doorway.

The Slaughter
In 306 AC, Carreg was killed during the attack on Carreghael by the Petryx tribe during the Slaughter, the event that led to the deaths of countless and the extinction of many tribes. According to the Ancient Annals, Carreg fought with an unknown tribesmen, who stabbed him with his sword and impaled him onto his throne. Stuck in place by the blade, the dying Carreg was burned to death when the other tribesmen set the stronghold on fire.

After Death
Though Carreg was burned to death in the fire, most of his blackened skeleton remained, held in place by the sword stuck through the ribcage. During the royal search of Carreghael in 1238 AC, the Crowned Knights discovered Carreg's skeleton was still in place, apparently left untouched by Xzyneth during his rule of Carreghael from 424 AC to 556 AC. The men attempted to move the bones to send to the museums in Paragrynn, but changed their minds after the arm bone crumpled to dust when moved. The skeleton was left behind in its place, the sword still stuck in the stone, between Carreg's ribs.
