Sindr En Brymstone

The descendant of the late Khourdrir An Brymstone, a young Sindr inherited a nation at war. Whilst a decade later, her quick thinking and reasoning skills allowed her people to thrive, it was not without sacrifice. One which undoubtedly she carries, and tries to ease herself out of with self medicated liquor. Whilst sobering up to govern her nation, she has taken great strides in forging alliances and ensuring the development of the cities in which the people she rules over live; the younger clan of the Swiftpicks deem her 'Sindr The Peaceful', both sincerely, and in fain mockery for her non-strong armed approach to local politics. 
== Biography ==
=== Young Sindr ===
Born in -201 VE, known the the Forgeborne as 10392 BRC (Before Rathamite Conquest), Sindr grew up deep within the depths of Mt Lestille. Her knowledge of the outside world laid only in tales of long ago ancestors who deemed the world above no different than the one she already knew. The land lay molten, just like the depths of Mt Lestille's active geothermal activity. 
A week after her 12th birthday, her father united the Forgeborne clans into one political entity known as the Thorinholt Realm. Whilst this caused much uproar amongst sects of the clans, many conceited that Khourdrir's rule was inevitable. After many days forging a new nation, Khourdrir sent a small scouting party to the surface, which never returned. Causing all surface ascensions to cease until half a century later when a small Kitsune envoy made its way to the doors of Mt Lestille. 
The envoy contained the queen of the Yugenmura tribes, Elya of the plains, in which she brought sad news of the passing of the expeditionary team sent out all those decades ago. She described that upon arriving to the base of Mt Lestille, they encountered the Yugenmura Kitsune. Whilst at first they were weary, the expeditionary team was soon welcomed in after bartering certain technologies for more warmer clothes. 
To mold her into a strong ruler, Sindr was sent into negotiations with Elya, in which as they talked about the surface, their culture and the people. By the end of several conversations, Sindr had taken a romantic liking to the young queen, and a romantic connection formed. Before long, they married in secret as not to upset her father, who wished to marry Sindr into another clan's family for the allegiance against the threat that killed the expeditionary force. 
=== The Exodus ===
Nearly two centuries ago, ninety-five years prior to the Rathamite invasion, the recently emerged Thorinholt Realm, led by King Khourdrir, clashed with the Remnants of the Lyndian Empire under Avoros Quasilis. Both kingdoms dredged on in a stalemate for many years which paved the groundwork for Sindr to slowly suggest a common ground between both nations.
After the ash had settled, both sides wearily grew to respect the space of the other, and whilst relations were tense, at the very least, there would be peace, gaining Sindr her title amongst the clans. A decade of trade between Lyndos and Thorinholt emerged, and soon, tension was level enough that it was seen as prudent to join together as one and form the dyarchical Ānaktate, with the word 'Enovātha' meaning, 'together, we shall march'.
Soon after this victory for Sindr, an unfortunate accident, known the the people of Thorinholt as, ‘The Gauss Straight Incident’, refers to a tragic event in the history of the Forgeborne that resulted in severe injury to the vocal cords and windpipes of Sindr, leaving her permanently scarred. 
The incident occurred on the southern river of the Gauss Straight, during a demonstration of a prototype pneumatic weapon, designed by the kingdom's most skilled engineers and inventors, in the wars against the realm’s neighbors. The weapon was intended to revolutionize dwarven warfare outside their settlements, offering unprecedented range and accuracy with the intention of hitting multiple targets.
During the demonstration, a catastrophic malfunction caused the weapon to seemingly break. The weapon was removed from the testing range and in attempts to remove the blockage fired the ammunition into the crowd. The young princess of the king at the time, now the current queen, was hit in the throat with the projectile and suffered severe injuries to her throat and vocal cords.
The princess’ injuries were life-threatening, and she was rushed to the kingdom's finest healers for treatment. Despite their efforts, they were unable to fully restore her voice, leaving her with a permanent and debilitating injury for the preceding decades, learning a form of sign language to communicate with others. 
The Gauss Straight Incident sent shockwaves through the kingdom, not only due to the princess’ injuries but also because of the implications for dwarven innovation and progress. The weapon was deemed too dangerous to continue development for the time being, and the project was scrapped entirely by the king out of respect and concern for his daughter.
A decade prior to her taking the mantle as ruler, the engineers researched ways to restore her voice, leading to breakthroughs in prosthetics for the wounded in war, but also for the queen, as she could now speak, even if her voice sounded slightly robotic.
=== After The Death Of Khourdrir and Thesa ===
The death of her parents was crushing to Sindr. Whilst her relationship was often strained, she genuinely cared for them up until their passing. Mere days later, her coronation as the new queen of Thorinholt took place. It was at this coronation she explained her relationship with Elya, and the bonding of the two kingdoms. It was on that day, she proclaimed the state of the Thorinholt Realm was over, and the Rænedeyt of Thorinholt had begun.
At the time, there was much discussion on how to properly commemorate Khourdrir, and whilst it was considered to rebirth them through the Forge like the rest of the Forgeborne, it was decided that Khourdrir and Thesa we're to be given the sacred royal burial, as was custom with the coppergear clan. Thus respecting the century long tradition.
Long after her coronation, and enough liquor to replace her blood, Sindr began a new initiative to explore lands beyond the subcontinent. The small settlements that explored much of the older Empire of Lyndos, came to be known as ‘Outposts’. These outposts were small, and easily manourverable in the event of an attack.
=== The Rathamite Refugee Crisis ===
By the end of -1 VE, the ancient portals in Yugenmura cities flickered alight. Before them, stood people alike them. Many baring features of the Kitsune. At first, the Kitsune deemed them as potential ancestors. Upon further research and translation efforts, it was concluded that they came from another nation called the Realm of Athinikas in a world called Rathnir. From further communication, they told the Forgeborne translators that they escaped an event they called the 'Cascade'. In which a comet crashed into their homeworld. Elya insisted to Sindr that they must be helped, in which she begrudgingly agreed. However this kindness would not be repaid by the other Rathamites.
Voyager's Era 0 marks the year in which the Rathamites laid claim to the world of Abexilas. Old rivals of Sindr's soon stopped raids, and all seemed calm. Yet she knew very well herself that theres merely quiet before the storm. First arrived The Remnants of Theionikos. Seeing the Arhausan lighthouse, it guided them to the darkened shores of the city. Weary locals set up temporary on the other side of a rock wall, in which the remnants set up temporary camps; all of which turned into permanent residence.
=== The Invasion From Beyond ===
Before the break of dawn on that fateful day, many years ago, the extent of the Enovathan lands were under siege. As millions flooded in from the Rathamite lands, Enovathans found their cities rampaged as what few guards who were on duty tried to defend their cities against the incoming threat. However before long, all that remained lay the capital and few hold outs in remote ports and on the mainland. These consisting of the capital, Arhausa, and the towns of Kihime, Himvar, and Rate De Oro. 
From Mt Lestille, the pirate invaders who'd made their assault on the impenetrable volcano island half a century ago, trekked the mountain to escape their own pursuers from the north. As her home was invaded, Sindr ordered that the evacuation of the Forgeborne and the Kitsune would have to commence. Many would safely make it to Arhausa, and many still were never seen again. 
In what is now modern day Kahei, the city of Kallithea held its last stand amongst the invaders; yet as their numbers dwindled, the soldiers retreated into the hills of Kihime; a small Kitsune settlement. The city itself would be behest to the same fate as those lost to the onslaught and was subsequently leveled.
Whilst unable to do much, the fragments of the Enovathan army managed to push back and hold the towns. Up until a recent ceasefire, Kihime was supplied through an airlift operation engaged by Sindr and her Forgeborne airship fleet, which airdropped supplies over enemy forces into the town. 
=== Joining The Divine Realms ===
After many months of seige, the Enovathans pushed back with the help of the Theionikos remnants, and were able to fully resecure Arhausa. However, the battle was very much costly to Sindr, and she found it prudent to find others to aid them. Talking with her Lyndian half at the time, Cioffa Perilaos, it was deemed that Enovatha would join the Kingdom of Aethos, later the Divine Realms of Soralae, as a member state, ceacing all struggles along the border. When Cioffa Perilaos died in battle, alongside the king of Aethos, his heir Lyra Nesryn-Evara Emberlyn Asparii Lyra Nesryn-Evara Emberlyn Asparii, reached out to Sindr and now as councilwoman, she oversees all Iristoyan affairs for the Divine Realm of Enovatha. 
=== Current Sindr ===
As of today, Sindr lives in the Forgeborne district in Arhausa. Ruling over what little population is left, she carries on, drunkenly to escape the pain of her own failure. Whilst very much homesick, she strives to retake her home from those who stole it from her, no matter the costs; and that fact keeps her going forward.
