The Five Princes of Misthalin are first mentioned in the novel Return to Canifis. Father Lawrence explains that the five princes rode off to fight for their father's kingdom centuries ago against the invading forces of Lord Drakan's army from Morytania. Of the five, only the youngest returned. The four that fell, the eldest Tenebra, Bran, Hywell and Henry are honoured for their sacrifice by the construction of a fountain that stands in the centre of Varrock.
