The Rise of Wesnoth is a campaign documenting the migration of humans from the Green Isle to the Great Continent, led by Prince Haldric, and the subsequent founding of Wesnoth.
The story begins during a war between Southbay and the Wesfolk, causing the Wesfolk's Lich-Lords to open gateways for armies of orcs to pour through on the Green Isle. The plot revolves around Haldric, who was forced to leave behind his sovereign father and lead the people of Stormvale south. When circumstance demanded that Haldric take an alternative route through the Oldwood Forest, he was able to retrieve the Ruby of Fire, a Lich-Lord artifact. He arrived at Clearwater Port, then continued to Southbay.
On the advice of Lady Jessene, Haldric set sail eastward, bringing the Green Isle survivors with him. Upon arriving at the Great Continent, he was assigned four quests to complete before being allowed to settle in the land, courtesy of the elves. He found out, however, that the powerful Lich-Lord Jevyan had followed him, desiring the Ruby of Fire. Haldric hastened west, fighting against large numbers of orcs and undead, and eventually managed to destroy Jevyan, and in the process, convince the surviving orcs that he had given the Ruby of Fire to the elves. He founded the Kingdom of Wesnoth.

Plot
A Summer of Storms
During the summer harvest, a group of Wesfolk seized the Kingdom of Stormvale's Nothern Keep. King Eldaric IV allowed his son, Prince Haldric to lead a retaliatory assault. They defeated the Wesfolk, and captured their leader,[1] later revealed to be Lady Jessene.[2] She explained that the Wesfolk were fleeing from their own Lich-Lords, who had opened gateways for orcs to invade the Green Isle. Eldaric accepted Jessene's surrender.[1]
The Fall
Although Eldaric IV attempted to defend Stormvale against the orcs, his forces were routed. Before he could evacuate the populace, he realized that Jessene had returned and settled in the south pass. With Haldric's help, he successfully captured Jessene again, allowing the people of Stormvale to hasten through the south pass. Eldaric tasked Haldric with leading the refugees south while he held the orcs back.[3]
A Harrowing Escape
While traveling through the Southern Pass, the refugees were blocked by a group of orcs. Haldric's army were forced to clear the way, although they received help from Burin the Lost, a dwarf, who lived in the surrounding mountains. Upon defeating the orcs, Haldric was forced to choose between traveling southeast through the Midlands or southwest through the Swamp of Esten.[4]
