Sarthorael's Watchers is a 
Tzeentch minor faction introduced in Total War: Warhammer III. It is led by Sarthorael the Everwatcher and can be found on the southernmost tip of The Southlands.
Background[]
Sarthorael, called the "Ever-Watcher," is a Greater Daemon of Chaos. Spoken of for many ages, this Lord of Change is favoured by Tzeentch himself and fulfils his master's dark, malicious purpose.
The Changer of Ways sometimes sends the Ever-Watcher forth from the Realm of Chaos so that he might test those Chaos Champions who seek to bring about the End Times to determine they are truly worthy of the Ruinous Powers' favour and support in their quest.
Although no Daemon's True Name can ever be fully grasped by the mind of mortals, there has been talk for aeons of the one called "Sarthorael." Like all Lords of Change, the Ever-Watcher revels in his contriving and devious nature, hiding his true manipulative genius behind a screen of erratic and fickle behaviour. Yet Sarthorael is more than a mere Lord of Change -- he is one of Tzeentch's favoured, sent to spread mayhem to those that the Great Changer deems deserving.
Whilst the world of mortals should tremble when a Lord of Change appears before them, so too should even Daemons be wary, for Tzeentch does not discriminate -- all are fair targets in his game. And so Sarthorael is sent, watching and waiting, with all the craft and slyness of his master, to judge whether the End Times can really be brought about and, when the time is right, to see if those who stand upon the Chaos Wastes really have the strength to do it...

Strategy[]
In The Realm of Chaos, Sarthorael's Watchers can be confederated when playing as Oracles of Tzeentch due to the starting positive relations of being military allies. But it must be done quickly before the Cathayan forces wipe him out.
In Immortal Empires, Sarthorael's Watchers serve as the starting enemy of Order of Loremasters. The faction is also within reach of the Oracles of Tzeentch. Thus, if the latter intends to confederate the faction to gain Sarthorael, they must act quickly. The simplest way to do this is to reach the Southlands and defeat Teclis before he can destroy the faction, however, you can also transfer a settlement on the Southern Chaos Wastes in order to save the Watchers from destruction without risking your own forces.
