On the old wiki.

A ancient tomb in the Wydmoor region that held the restless remains of a pre-Alexandrian barbarian king. The entrance to the tomb was uncovered by a previous group of explorers at the base of a statue hidden in thick woods between Onrarch Landing and Yalmrith. This entrance led to an underground cavern holding a number of storage rooms and a ziggurat, which housed the restless mummy of the ancient King.

The tomb and its contents are believed to predate Alexandria by as much as 2,000 years, and held the remains of a significant military leader of the time. The frescoes in the tomb showed appear to show its inhabitant, armed and dressed similar to a modern Celstian barbarian, conquering an army and usurping a king.

Naprid Daithe had the following to say to the Silverwalkers after a casting of legend lore:

"For as long as anyone can remember, that statue was called Margalin's Tomb: said to be the resting place of Margalin Tardannan. Indeed, the statue's visage is undeniably Tardannan's. However, it's pretty clear based on what I've learned that the statue's face was changed later, and the statue - and tomb complex it rests upon - are much older."

"It is, in fact, the tomb of he whom the Ubrekti historians refered to as the Marauder Prince, and what you have unearthed are his blade and crown."

Looted from it, among other priceless treasures, were the Barbarian King's Buckler and the Barbarian King's Bastard Sword.
