Legend of Ahldbhar the Archon

I heard a rumor that the bartender down in the Miner's Guild knew something about the Archon. I found Nimla and we went to see the woman about a mythical creature that hatches from eggs. Her name is Tyago Moui and she was eager to talk to us. She said it was widely believed that the Archons came to the world's rescue some 1500 years ago when it fell into the 6th Umbral Age. She told us of a bard compiling stories of the Archon and looking for a muse to help him work the characters into a grand song. She promised to help him but had her work at the bar cut out for her so she sent us to track down Lyngwaek at the Gladiator Guild to help inspire the bard on the subject of Ahldbhar, the most formidable of the Archons of legend.
Interview with Tyago Moui
 We tracked down Lyngwaek who told us his brutal philosophy for defeating his enemies (and disregard for life) which turned both our stomachs slightly and then we set out to fill in Moui the information the bard may need to complete his tale. Tyago told us how the Archon, Ahldbhar was said to be Rhalgr the Destroyer in Roegadyn form - a monster of a warrior who took on a group of vile sorcerers all on his own ... until one day something changed and he took up arms with his previous enemies. She knew nothing more, sadly.

Interview with Lyngwaek
I thought the Archons to be a race of angelic creatures, but this Ahldbhar was a Roegadyn? Surely he didn't hatch from an egg. I wonder what the connection is to these Archons, this Dreamer prophecy and the truth of to these legends.
