I would suggest either contacting Ashbury's Plot team (allianceplot@gmail.com) or making a post in the Ashbury Out-Of-Game section to discuss backstory stuff.
I NPC at HQ, so I can try to answer questions as well, though I'm not as familiar with the history of the land as some people are...
I killed a griffin!
Lalan's sacrifice to awaken the obelisk
Seriously, we permed two griffins
Funeral/victory feast saturday night
Did I mention the griffin-killing thing?
Sasha walking in to perform our resurrections and describing that she was coated in feathers and blood
All joking aside...
