READ IT BECAUSE
It's a chance to see a previously unknown battle from the War of Life, and a branch of the Sylvaneth a bit different from anything we've seen before…
THE STORY
In the verdant realm of Ghyran, the War of Life rages. The sylvaneth, forest spirit defenders of the realm, battle the pustulent might of Nurgle's Rotbringers, with the future of their very land at stake. But beneath the calm surface of the Sea of Serpents, the war is being waged on another front. The Naereids, custodians of the underwater forests, are beset, as bloated Blightkings intrude upon their sunken fields and threaten to destroy everything they hold dear. Kelara, leader of the Naereids must muster her defences and hold off the relentless assault – or all she has known may be lost.

A Black Library debut from Jaine Fenn, From the Deep is an Age of Sigmar short story set during the War of Life in the Realm of Ghyran. While the events of CL Werner’s Wardens of the Everqueen are taking place, in the shallows of the Sea of Serpents Kelara, Guardian of the Kelp Forests, marshals her Naereids in a determined defence against sorcerous underwater Rotbringers.
It’s interesting to spend time with some of the never-before-seen denizens of the Mortal Realms, although with so little to work from it’s tricky to really grasp exactly what a Naereid is and just what drives Kelara. That notwithstanding, it’s a nicely paced story with a good balance between unusual action scenes (it’s mostly underwater, after all) and quieter, more reflective moments.
