Editing Everqueen (section)

===[[Nagash]](?)===
During the ritual to return Nagash to life, powerful beings (including the daughter of the [[Lady of the Lake]]) were sacrificed to bind his spirit to the body of [[Volkmar the Grim]]. Aliathra was among them, and through her he sought to inherit the powers of the Elven Gods and of Life magic.

Although he sought to gain her strengths, Aliathra was not the Everchild, as Alarielle was still alive so the Everqueen entity still resided with her. Alaithra's title of Everchild was purely ceremonial, as she would have been the recipient of that bloodline, but it didn't pan out due to Alarielle still being alive. So all Nagash got from Aliathra was Aenarion's Curse ([[Just as Planned|All according to plan]] for Nagash's enemies, [[Not As Planned]] for Naggy himself). Arkhan and Mannfred really should have checked elven lore and the genealogies better; Neferata somehow knew all this and put the pieces together when Nagash returned, having a laugh at Mannfred's and Arkhan's expense before making her own plans.

There was the theory that since Aliathra's soul merged with Nagash's, it was possible that he is now part of the Everqueen entity. It was thought that this helped explain how he has usurped control of the afterlife from Morr, which he had made part of Sylvania, although another explanation is that Morr and Usirian were the same god by different names and worshiped in different ways (the lore says that when Nagash consumed Usirian, Morr died at the same times).

However, with the fusing of Isha, Ariel and Alarielle, along with Alarielle receiving the Wind of Life and the world being destroyed, the gestalt nature of the Everqueens was ended. This means that any connection Nagash had to the Everqueen lineage, if he ever had one, is gone.
