Maharion (also known as King of Earthsea, the Last King, Maharion the Brave) was the king of Havnor. He died eight hundred years before the start of the books.
==Biography ==
Last King of All the Isles at Havnor, he ruled from 430-452 . Son of Queen Heru and Aiman. His mage and counsellor was Erreth-Akbe, described as his heart's brother; they spent ten years together fighting the Kargs before defeating them decisively at Waymarsh. Maharion also fought in four campaigns against dragons in the west. With Heru, undertook a building programme in Havnor City, including the three towers of the New Palace. Died in battle with the rebellious lord Gehis of the Havens. He seems to have left no children; after his death, no clear claimant to the throne emerged and the kingdom fell into the Dark Years. Maharion predicted that the next king would have 'crossed the dark land living and come to the far shores of the day'The farthest Shore, which was widely interpreted to mean he would be a wizard or mage.
