Zulius Kaltaris

„*I am no Master, and I have no partner in life. I will do what I must to eliminate the Voltaris once and for all.*”
— Zulius Kaltaris↑
**Zulius Kaltaris** was an Ardoni council representative of the Kaltaris clan who led the attack on the Voltaris shortly after the destruction of Sendaria. He was killed by Ingressus Voltaris, the Deathsinger on Mt. Velgrin.

## Appearances

### Episode 9

In the wake of the recent Voltaris attacks on selected Ardoni villages (including the attack on Sendaria that killed Thalleous Sendaris), Zulius led an Ardoni council in Kaltaria to discuss this news. Though Master Siderian Mendoris attempted to point out that the Ardoni lacked the manpower to fight the Voltaris, Master Aurelius Nestoris implied the threat the exiled clan would pose if left alone. Pondering the Nestoris master's words, Zulius elected to lead an attack on the Voltaris, citing Thalleous's warnings about their return. Though Master Siderian staunchly opposed this, Zulius gained support from most of the council, including brothers Galadar and Hadion Mendoris, who also volunteered to join him.

After the council, Zulius stepped outside to reflect on his decision. Galadar joined him and commented on how long it had been since the Ardoni last wielded Songs. Zulius expressed hope that they remembered how to use them before firing his Aggressium Song, Aggrovortex, into the distance.

### Episode 10

Zulius and Hadion traveled to Ataraxia to recruit more Ardoni warriors to their cause. At one point, they were accompanied by Hubris Nestoris, who attempted to persuade them to focus on a more defensive plan instead of a single attack on the Voltaris. Unconvinced that the Voltaris posed a greater threat than they perceived, Zulius and Hadion took Hubris's responses as a refusal to join them and left him.

After gathering enough Ardoni warriors to launch an attack, Zulius led them on horseback to Mt. Velgrin, where Thalleous had encountered the Voltaris.

On Mt. Velgrin, Zulius and his Ardoni forces appeared behind a group of Voltaris led by Tygren, the one who killed Thalleous. After the Voltaris portal opened, Zulius and several other Ardoni fired their Aggressium Songs at the Voltaris, only to be countered by a Protebarrier conjured by one of them. Tygren then fired his Aggrosphere at Zulius, though this was intercepted by a Nestoris wielding a Supporium Song. The two sides then engaged in physical combat, with Zulius killing several Voltaris and holding his own against Tygren. However, the battle was interrupted when the portal continued to open, revealing the final battle between the Deathsinger and the Tidesinger 154 years prior. Zulius and the others watched in disbelief as the Deathsinger defeated his nemesis and stepped through the portal into the present.

### Episode 11

After the Deathsinger came through the portal, the battle on Mt. Velgrin resumed, this time favoring the Voltaris. Zulius fired his Aggressium Song at Ingressus, but missed. The two then fought, but Zulius was ultimately killed by the Deathsinger.

## Personality and Traits

Zulius was a brave Ardoni, being the first to volunteer to fight against the Voltaris on Mt. Velgrin. He was also quite skilled, being able to fight with Tygren and killing 3 Voltaris in about 3 seconds (measured through video timestamps) with his diamond staff.
