Sauviri

## Lore

### Prologue: Proto Sauviri

In the year -200 an elder named Rahugan led 10 families who were fleeing from a outbreak of darkness in their native area to a place with a big river and some of its tributaries, the North East had big mountains and Rahugan fearing that he led the people to their death went into the river wanting to drown then stay alive and watch them families he saved die and his life be filled with guilt but when he did nothing happened to him but he felt intense power and when he tried to test his theory on a nearby tree it flew miles in a single punch.

Rahugan surprised by this discovery left his plan of suicide and instead alerted the others who did the same, eventually they started calling the river 'Mother Indas" and claimed that they were the children of this river who were destined to return and settle here. Years passed and the population increased and soon they started calling themselves the Sauviri tribe.

### Prologue 1: Spread of Darkness

It was a normal day like any other in the summer of -26 when a Sauviri scout came to the tribe out of breath he said he came from the South and had terrifying news to tell... the darkness was coming towards them in a fast pace destroying everything in its way like it did many years ago. The people were terrified by this, some wanted to run away, some cried for hours next to the river hoping help would be given but nothing happened.

Two days passed and the darkness finally reached the Sauviri the elders tried stop the darkness in no effort but then a thirsty lion with a blue mane saw what was going on and crossed the river heading towards the incoming darkness knowing nothing would change fate but he still tried and roared at the darkness which started receding away from the tribe. What no human could do a lion did by simply roaring however this was  no ordinary lion it was Saeen Fairouz known by many names such as Roshni(light), Shahanshah ae Shahanshah ae sher(King of Kings of lions) and many others. Fairouz became the protector of the tribe and pretty much the first sardar and protected the Sauviri from threats and dangers.

### Chapter 0:Birth of Hanzah

3 years later Hanzah was born from parents who had problems with having children however he was the direct descendant of Rahugan and when Fairouz saw him while on a patrol he sensed greatness and leadership and started a meeting of the entire tribe where he marked Hanzah by drawing a claw with his finger on Hanzah's right cheek declaring hims as his successor and assigned the council to help him. In remembrance of this Hanzah's front hair was made Blue from where the title 'Blue maned lion' came from.

Fairouz stayed for 5 more days before departing and told the tribe that he would help in times of danger and that he was only going to the forest so Hanzah could lead.

### Chapter 1:Rise of Hanzah

Hanzah spent his early life hunting and trying to be a good sardar which worked off pretty well as he was the most respected person in the tribe. Hanzah didn't believe what the people said about a lion named Fairouz and darkness because it made no sense to him but he never told anyone about this because he didn't want resistance to his reign. Under Hanzah the Sauviri tribe was in prosperity and many new things were invented and made. Hanzah even defeated enemies coming from the North East in a decisive victory only losing 30 soldiers against 400 showing that Saeen Fairouz was right about him after all.
