There are some inconsistencies related to the seige of Holtburg, the rescue by Celcynd, and the founding of Rithwic.
Holtburg
Holtburg was founded in 2 PY[1][2] In 6 PY, Tumeroks besieged the town.[3][4][5][6] Most of the population retreated to the Holtburg Redoubt, where they were slain by the Tumeroks.[3][4][6] The children were rescued by the mage Celcynd.[3][4][6][7][8][9][10][11] The children escaped through a summoned portal to Rithwic.[7][8]
Children known to have been saved are:
Adults known to have been killed are:
- Brogord the Forester, father of Flinrala Ryndmad.[9]
- Mother of Worcer.[9][8]
- Father of Worcer.[9][8]
Adults assumed to have been killed are:
- Ryndya, mother of Flinrala Ryndmad.[12]
- Roland, father of Hardunna.[9][7]
- Hope, mother of Hardunna.[9][7]
Some sources say all the adults were killed.[3][7] Other sources say many (but not all) of the adults were killed,[6] or imply that some of the adults survived.[10]
The age of the children is also somewhat unclear. Flinrala Ryndmad once said that, when her father was killed, she was just a babe in swaddling.[13] Flinrala also said that her father was going to make her an axe of her own, as soon as she was big enough to hold one.[14] Worcer and Hardunna referred to themselves as a "boy" and a "girl" at the time of the attacks.[9][8][7]
Celcynd
Celcynd was the first and only pupil of the mage Harlune.[15]
Rithwic
Rithwic was founded in 7 PY.[16][17] It was originally a small stonemason's hamlet.[16]
