===Biography===
====Early life====
Born in the Autumn of 292 TE, she was born during a chaotic time for the region of Southern Kejafros. The Second Baszku Kingdom has very recently descended into civil war, with two separate claimants for the Baszku throne being in active war for one another. Ahudenya was born in the Qatakema Prefecture, off in the far East of what would become Zilatra. She was born to an ethnically and culturally Baszku family, though it is suspected she may be partially Hwuk in heritage. Ahudenya's mother, Dal si Diya was a farmer who fought in an eventual peasant revolt against the Baszku Kingdom; she was also called Dal A-Hafe Laszuya (Dal the Farmworker). Ahudenya's father, also a farmer, was named Yabali si Baqiya and would brutally pass away in an attempted assassination of Dal si Diya while she was away. Her family home was torched to the ground by Royalists.
At a young age, Ahudenya studied history and architecture with the Villagers. At merely 11 years old, the peasant revolt which killed her father had begun and her mother was thrust into national attention. When she was 13, both claimants to the Baszku throne were assassinated, ending the civil war; this prompted the creation of Zilatra as a unified country.
With the death of her father, and the return of her mother from war, she would move from village to village across Qatakema, studying under her mother's political tenure as a secretary for the local Prefect. By 307 TE, she was actively studying politics and designing structures as an architect for the peasant state. For the next thirteen years she would continue her studying of politics, joining as an early member of what was called the Szeruya Lasztuli Qeyan, or the Xeroist Union Party. At this time, Xeroism had been introduced to the region through the mystic efforts of Arika Ronango'O for several decades. The Xeroist Union Party would quickly take control of the peasant republic, declaring the Xeroist Republic of Zilatra.
====Early political career====
In 320 TE, with the interim government having been dissolved and the Xeroist Republic of Zilatra becoming a fully fledged state, Zilatra was changing rapidly. This was further drastically changed by the incoming Eldhamite refugees who joined Zilatra in the aftermath of the War of the Comet. She would run to become the first Deputy Secretary of Zilatra alongside her long-time collaborator Yadal Krakhovich. They won with merely 51.16% of the national vote, and with this, Ahudenya was now a government official.
She would found a commune named Taqa Najul, and oversee the creation of more than a dozen communes across Zilatra. She began orchestrating the construction of new structures as well, such as in Lasaji where she oversaw housing project construction. She also became a co-Mayor for the newly founded commune of Gaszalasi, Zilatra's first capital.
It was at what would become Taqa Najul where she had an apparent "religious epiphany", Ahudenya was then leading the Hizanji Sabe, an expedition team tasked with mapping out early Zilatra and concretely determining its borders. She traveled through the Southern tundras and taigas of Qatakema when she came across a ring of dead trees with a pillar in its center. At the site she found three relics, including a prayermat, the sapling of a spruce tree, and a bucket containing powdered snow. On the pillar was inscribed an ancient Baszku language poem reading:
She laid out the prayermat and made prayer to the land, at which point the sky filled with lights and the site illuminated, the invisible source of the lights remaining to this day. She prostrated before the mysterious lights; though no voice was heard as the poem stated, she was in the presence of what she believed to be great spirits or deities. She buried her belongings into the soil of the site, at which point they were received by the lights and disapeared.
Throughout the night she made pilgrimage through the tundra, and called the site where the event had happened Taqa Najul, meaning the Frozen Field. She eventually made her way to a Villager commune named Iwidiihu Maa, where she made contact with the local Villagers and stayed for nights, learning of their ways. She learned of the ancient Villager lore, of Gonf, of Ovo, and the ways of old. She became religious that night, converting to Makerism.
She continued governance of early Zilatra, helping with internal matters of the country. Yadal Krakhovich, her running mate, by contrast, had largely dedicated himself to foreign politics and policy, while Ahudenya dealt with internal matters. For about fifteen years she remained Deputy Secretary in a very undramatic term. In 19 VE howver, she noticed an increasing raise of inactivity, and decided the Zilatran government needed to be "reactivated" and shocked into running. She released a text called "The National Programme" detailing her thoughts to the Xeroist Union Party, and pursued an effort to replace inactive government officials, resuscitate immigration and Commissariats, and industrialize the nation. Within a week, farms had been rapidly expanded, building projects took off, political activity exponentially increased, and the nation's first Citizens' Market had been created; all under her supervision. 
==== Late political career ====
In 21 VE, Ahudenya and her running-mate Yadal Krakhovich would run for office yet again. While facing staunch and charismatic competition, they would ultimately be victorious in the election - obtaining 64% of the national vote. Debates were hosted between both the candidates for General and Deputy Secretary, which went over well. They were hosted in the capital of Gaszalasi.
As part of the new government, new Commissars were appointed and one of the primary focuses of the government was to stabilize the integrity of national territory. This meant replacing Mayors with more active alternatives, and ones who could expand claims properly as to prevent squatters from settling in land. The overall activity initiatives were massive successes however, with new building projects taking place in Lasaji, Deamo'zgou, and Gaszalasi; and a series of road networks being designed by Klara Serebra.
She worked alongside the Xeroist Union Party in a Working Group which sought to study the ongoing relationship between Sentara and Zilatra. The Sentari diplomatic delegation had offered the potential of Sentara integrating into Zilatra as to unite the once-unified community of the United Socialist States of Eldham.
In the aftermath of the Working Group, she met with various Sentaran leaders to discuss long-term plans for unification of Zilatra and Sentara's communities. These included plans to integrate the international military, intelligence, and economic infrastructure of the two countries. Furthermore, she was given a seat on the Sentaran Citizens' Assembly, which was predominately made up of Xeroists. She helped to further organize the Commissariats during this time. 
For the remainder of her time in public office, Ahudenya remained an important figure in the community, organizing a Book Club and seeking to organize the internal frameworks of the Xeroist Union Party and the Commissariats. She would also engage with the worldwide socialist community, helping to bolster the Xeroist movement in half a dozen countries and helping to organize the first ever Abexilas Socialist Internationale Congress. At this point she had also helped to institute various organizations including the Citizens' Market of Zilatra, the Zilatra State Financial Institute, the University of Zilatra, and Scholars Without Borders. 
It was also at this time where she would wed her long-time partner, Tal si Hala, a prominent politician within the Xeroist Union Party, and eventual High Judge.
====Retirement ====
Following the end of her second term as Deputy Secretary in 35 VE, she briefly considered running for General Secretary where she was polled to be the most popular potential candidate, but she had decided to drop out and live out the rest of her life in retirement. She would live out her elderly years in a humble apartment with her husband. She would continue to have an active life, participating in organizing Book Clubs, Katruji tournaments, and gardening. She would also be the one to formally inaugurate Kuvala Serebra into public office.

===Works===
====Architecture====
Most of Ahudenya's contributions to the architecture of Zilatra are based in the cities of Lasaji and Gaszalasi. This included the design of housing complexes and factories, though perhaps most notable build is the Dusanya Czimanamal; a large lighthouse in Lasaji which has become synonymous with the city itself. She designed the exterior of the Ahudenya Atabta, the largest theater in Kejafros, also in Lasaji.
She also designed the Arak Sahir, a Makerist temple designed for Taqa Najul.
