*'''Nichel:''' ''I don't know the details since I was born in Rigomor after the fact. I only know what Winster told me... I heard that the White-Ghost King called upon her followers one by one and told them something. Among those followers, one betrayed the king and attacked.''

*'''Nichel:''' ''After the king's death, chaos fell upon the White-Ghost territory, and another war broke out between the two hostile races.

So, the Nous and the small number of Garen who still followed the will of the late White-Ghost King came down to Rigomor, awaiting the White-Ghost King's return.''
