Hira

Hira was the last emperor of Yokuda. He persecuted the Ansei, and sent his brigand army of Orcs and war castoffs to wipe them out. He sent one hundred of his personal guards to arrest the famous Divad Hunding. His guards managed to capture him until one of them killed his aging mother, which awoke the spirit of the Way in Divad and led to his escape and subsequent resistance against Hira.
Divad managed to convince his father Frandar to go to war against Hira in the War of the Singers. The Ansei were greatly outnumbered initially, and led Hira's troops from their original invasion point of High Desert to the foot of Mount Hattu. Frandar planned to fight seven battles here, with the Singers growing in power with the Shehai until triumphed over Hira's forces.
Little is known of Hira's life or death, save that he had a consort named Elisa.
