Many sought to challenge his rule, but all fell before him, their armies crushed under the weight of his dark sorcery. Rumor has it that Martba made a pact with ancient and malevolent entities, further augmenting his powers. It is said that he gained immortality, becoming immune to the ravages of time and granting him an unmatched lifespan. This rumored immortality made the Witch-King all the more terrifying, as it seemed that nothing could stand in his way. However, as with all tales of power and tyranny, legends of Martba's downfall also exist. Some versions of the story suggest that a group of brave heroes, united under a common cause, managed to infiltrate his fortress, finding a way to strip the Witch-King of his powers and ultimately defeat him in a climactic battle. Others claim that he grew complacent in his rule, allowing dissent to brew within his own ranks, leading to a coup that toppled his reign. Whatever the truth may be, the Witch-King Martba remains a captivating character in Zanora's folklore. His story serves as a cautionary tale of the dangers of absolute power and the consequences of unchecked ambition. Even today, his name continues to inspire fear and fascination, reminding all who hear it of the delicate balance between good and evil that exists within the human soul..
