Tos Toarlameek was the Murdoh of Lora, son of Taley and Dyfy Toarlameek. He succeeded his father as Murdoh and ruled for 10 years. He mysteriously disappeared with his entourage in 1567 SR.

Early life

Tos was born in Lora and received military training. He took part in the 1549-1550 SR campaign against Darfe Goldoor, where he met Uroh Soader.

As Murdoh

Tos assumed the role of Murdoh in 1557 SR, right after the death of Taley. He had the same unimposing character as his father and was generally viewed favorably by Lora's populace, but Lora's paper trail reveals a certain degree of frustration from his court, who felt that he lacked the drive and political prowess of this father, specifically in dealings with Mantar. Nevertheless, Tos was unchallenged, as he kept all Taley-era courtiers, Lora's economic standing continued to increase and the decade of his rule saw no special challenges in the region.

Disappearance

Tos was an avid hunter and spent a lot of time hunting in the local forests. In November of 1567 he was returning to the palace with his entourage of about thirty people. One of the courtiers was sent ahead of the party to inform palace staff of the Murdoh's approach. But the entourage never arrived.

Subsequent investigation found that according to the hoofprints, at some point the entourage made a sharp turn and began moving back towards the forest. As it was late autumn, the ground closer to the forest was covered with a thick layer of foliage and traces of the party quickly faded out. The courtier who was sent ahead testified that during their journey through the edge of the forest they heard noises coming from their left twice, at some point even speculating that someone was following them. However, the forest was not thick and there didn't seem to be anyone around, nor was there any place to hide.

Neither Tos Toarlameek, nor anyone from his entourage were ever seen or heard from again.
