Payan Kingdom

The **Payan Kingdom** is the supreme power and governing society within the area and a large swathe of what has been shown of the post apocalyptic world.

### Overview

#### Government

The Payan Kingdom is ruled by a monarch, Queen Sibeth Kane, who is supported by a ruling council made up of Lords and Ladies. The Kingdom has a **written constitution** and laws.

#### Religion

The state religion of Payan is a theocracy, with Queen Kane claiming to derive her power and authority from God. She claims she controls the power of the river, this is a true if misleading and incomplete assertion , secularly she does control the Kanzua Hydroelectric Dam, which does indeed encircle and direct the river, Queen Sibeth Kane parleys this into spiritual reinforcement of her political status and says that she is a conduit of God — a hero and villain at the same time.

The religion practiced by the Payans demonized the Sighted as witches, and Witchfinders were maintained as a standing army to root out any Sighted or heretics. Electricity is revered as sacred, with the water flowing through the dam regarded as "holy."

#### Society

Payan society is largely feudal in nature, with various subservient tribes paying taxes to the monarchy in Kanzua, the Payan capital. The Kanzua Hydroelectric Dam is the palace where Queen Kane rules the kingdom, with the surrounding village of Kanzua located at the base of the dam.

#### Military

The military arm of the Payan Kingdom is the Witchfinders, considered to be the best soldiers in the kingdom. They are charged with hunting down heretics and witches, and are led by the Witchfinder General, Tamacti Jun.

#### Infrastructure and Technology

Based at Kanzua, the Kanzua Hydroelectric Dam produces power that is distributed to the people, and is used to power old world machinery such as record players that can play music. While seemingly not as advanced as the Trivantians, they have enough knowledge of medicine to have professional physicians, like Lord Unoa who served as Royal Physician.

The Payan Kingdom appears to have some level of light industry, at least, with a silk manufacturing operation near the capital catering to the highborn royalty and nobility.

## Plot

Paris awakens, dreaming of blood and betrayal. She tells Haniwa that Maghra and Baba Voss must not travel to the meeting with Trivantes. Haniwa grabs a horse, to the dismay of Charlotte, to chase down her parents.

Meanwhile, Edo and Wren discuss the meeting between Paya and Trivantes, and Edo sends Wren as their representative. He instructs Wren that these talks must fail.

Maghra is travelling to the meeting place alongside Harlan, with Baba Voss walking behind. They arrive at the meeting place as greetings take place, and while this happens Haniwa arrives to warn her parents. Maghra decides the meeting must take place, and Baba invites Haniwa to stay and keep watch.

Kofun is training with Toad to improve his fighting skills and Toad decides Kofun is better when he cannot see. Later, Queen Kane meets with Kofun and together they go on a horse ride. Paris also meets with Kofun and warns him to be careful around the Queen.

At the meeting, the talks progress until Maghra reveals Queen Kane wants an apology from Trivantes. The Trivantian delegation disagree and when they reveal Harlan’s brother, Kerrigan, was killed for spying, Harlan attacks one of the Trivantians and the meeting is disbanded.

To get the deal done, Harlan decides he needs to arrange a private meeting with a member of the Trivantian delegation, Scopus. They agree on terms and at the meeting the next day will finalize the terms of the agreement. That night, Haniwa and Wren meet to discuss war and which side to fight for. The meeting the next day comes to an agreement, but this is under the condition from Trivantes that the Queen ensures the sighted are stopped.

Queen Kane and Kofun continue to meet and together they take a forbidden drug known as Thornflower. They take some together which causes Kofun to do something he had never done before.

At the meeting place of Paya and Trivantes, a night assault occurs with Trivantian delegates being killed. Baba Voss kills the assailants, and it is discovered they are Payans. Maghra and Harlan deduce the Queen wanted these talks to fail and sent the soldiers.

Sometime later, Lord Sak delivers a message to Queen Kane, purportedly from her Witchfinder General and Royal Tax Collector, Tamacti Jun. One half of the message was genuine, with the second half a forgery created by Lady Zee and Lord Carne. They were part of a conspiracy trying to have Queen Kane recall Jun and his army to Kanzua to deal with rising discontent among their own people.

However, Queen Kane found out that the message was a forgery since she and Jun had a secret agreement. On all of his messages, Jun would tie a heart every tenth to prove its authenticity.

Scentier

A **Scentier** is someone naturally born with an acute scene of smell — an ability often enhanced by training — and with physical modifications and adornments like raised tattoos or embedded seashells. Similar to Ayuras, individual Scentiers can have functional ritualistic scarifications running across their faces, often from cheeks and ears and foreheads to the base of their nostrils, as if guiding energy and focus to their noses. Multiple Scentiers often breathe in unison to determine what is out there.

In battle, Scentiers are so valuable, one or two other warriors are assigned to them as personal guards. Scentiers are kept from the fray because their ability to assess the situation is so strategically advantageous, soldiers do not want to risk losing them. They serve as the bloodhounds of any military organization and have the ability to dream the wind.

Jerlamarel

**Jerlamarel** is a supporting character in *SEE*. He is a heretic who preached about the blessings of Sight, and was the biological father of Maghra's twin children Haniwa and Kofun, as well as multiple other children with other women. Jerlamarel is portrayed by Joshua Henry, first appearing in the episode "Message in a Bottle" and is beheaded by Edo Voss in the second season episode "The Compass".

## Biography

### Early life

Jerlamarel had no religion, which was both a strength and a weakness. Born to a slave and at one time a footman to the royals of Payan, he eventually found himself the favourite among the royal consorts of Sibeth, then head of the House of Kane and Queen of the Payan. After abandoning her service to fulfill his self-perceived destiny as the leader of a new kingdom for the Sighted, he and his progeny were hunted by the royal witchfinders. Jerlamarel is the father of eight children with different women: Kofun, Haniwa, Nonni, Sheva, Sheena, Boots, Oloman, and Sammy.

### Assisting the Alkenny

Jerlamarel and Sibeth Kane were once lovers, and she considered him her one true love. He was a footman in the royal palace who served the ruling council food. Jerlameral confided in Sibeth that he had the power of Sight. When Jerlamarel abandoned her, Queen Kane dispatched her Witchfinders to capture him and return him to her.

Jerlamarel and Maghra arrived at the Alkenny Village in winter when she was three months pregnant. He entrusted Maghra and his children to the care of Paris and the Alkenny. Jerlamarel built a bridge over a ravine, giving the Alkenny a chance to escape from the inevitable arrival of Payan Witchfinders. He told Paris of the bridge's existence, along with instructions on how to reach a hidden valley. When the Witchfinders attacked the Alkenny village, the villagers were able to evacuate over the bridge. Travelling for thirty days and thirty nights, they arrived at the location indicated by Jerlamarel, where he had left livestock and building materials for them to create a new home.

Jerlamarel stayed close to the new location of the new village for a time, ensuring that the valley was clear of bears. While hunting the last of the beasts, he met Baba Voss. Instructing Baba to name the twins Kofun and Haniwa so that he would know them when they came to him, Jerlamarel guided Baba to a hidden cache of books that would give the twins an education as they grew. Inside the cache was also a message to his children, instructing them how to find him once they had decided to leave the village when they were older.

### Season Two

Jerlamarel is beheaded by Edo Voss in "The Compass", after discovering that he had lost his ability to see at the hands of his brother, Baba Voss.

## Biography

One of the Alkenny's Kill Dancers, Belu is an extremely capable warrior. She is called upon to defend the Alkenny Village when it was attacked by Queen Kane's Witchfinder army, who were searching for the heretic Jerlamarel.

Belu fought the Witchfinder army alongside the rest of the Alkenny at the Wall, but the tribe was outnumbered and forced to retreat. With their only way off the mountain blocked by the Witchfinder army, the Alkenny voted to try and appease the Witchfinder General by handing over Maghra and her children, who they believed to be witches.

The Alkenny's leader, Baba Voss stood against the decision, as did several others. Belu sided with the Dreamer, and believed that Baba Voss should stand down and surrender Maghra and the children. The situation almost turned to violence until Paris revealed that Jerlamarel had built a bridge over a ravine, allowing the tribe to escape to a new home.

## General info

Seventeen years after the hunt for Jerlamarel began, Nyrie serves as a lady in waiting to Queen Kane of Payan. When Tamacti Jun returns to Kanzua without the witch children of Jerlamarel, Queen Kane allows him the honor of ending his own life. Nyrie kept Queen Kane company while Jun prepared to take his own life, until the queen received a message from a courier that informed her of the location of Jerlamarel's children, prompting her to spare Jun.

In addition to being Queen Kane's lady in waiting, Nyrie was also a Shadow. Nyrie spied on Lord Dune and Lady An plotting against Queen Kane, and reported it to the Queen. As a result, Queen Kane was able to prevent the coup against her, although it cost her the support of the people. Nyrie informed the queen of growing dissent among the people, leading the queen to stop the turbines at the Kanzua Hydroelectric Dam.

Nyrie escaped the destruction of the dam alongside the Queen. A driver spirited them away from Kanzua in a carriage. During a stop, the driver was killed by shadows allied to the Cutter, who ran a silk slave farm. The shadows also killed Nyrie, and captured the Queen.

One of Queen Kane's principal advisors, Lord Dune was a member of the ruling council of the Payan Kingdom. As the Queen's obsession with finding Jerlamarel grew, Lord Dune advised his liege to abandon the search and focus on matters at home. Talk of discontent among the population and fears about the power generation of the dam worried Dune, and he advised bringing their soldiers home. Queen Kane refused and continued the search.

Three years later, after Queen Kane discovered that Lady Zee and Lord Carne forged a message from her Witchfinder General, Tamacti Jun, she presided over their public trial and execution. Lord Dune was in attendance, alongside Lord Unoa.

Seventeen years later, as Tamacti Jun finally returned to Kanzua after collecting tribute from across Payan, Lord Dune announced to Queen Kane that the people were rejoicing at his return. As the Queen's obsession with capturing Jerlamarel's Witch children became her sole focus, Lord Dune conspired with Lady An and Lord Unoa to remove her from power in such a way that they cannot be blamed.

Unaware that Queen Kane's lady in waiting, Nyrie, had discovered their plot, Lord Dune was present at a celebration thrown by Lady An to unveil a new songbird especially for her. In truth, they intended to poison her with a spider. Aware of the plot, Queen Kane had Nyrie kill Lord Dune while she personally dealt with Lady An.

House of Enlightenment (place)

The House of Enlightenment is a location in *SEE*. It was where Kofun and Haniwa met their sighted half-siblings and sighted father.

## Description

The House of Enlightenment, is exactly that, that is it is former prison converted to a repository of pre-apocalypse knowledge, especially advanced technology and educational literature in order to rebuild unsighted civilization to what it was before the blindness inducing plague. it is also a safe house for the sighted from the witch finders of Payan and the Trivantian soldiers.

The Trivantians later killed Jeramarel and took over his House of Enlightenment . In doing so they gained access to one of the last bastions of modern knowledge and technology from before the collapse. They are making use of this resource by putting Jerlamarels's sighted children, particularly Olomon as an engineer to work as scientists as well as bringing in their own research teams led by Tormada. In particular they wished to make use of the library and armory of pre-apocalypse weaponry.

It was later used an explosives factory as bombs were a revolutionary weapon to Unsighted civilization.

Sheva alludes to the House being one of many after it is burned down to prevent the trivantians further exploitation of the pre-apocalypse knowledge technology and weaponry as well as its post-apocalypse sighted residents.

Boots

> "After Jerlamarel continued his journey the Opayol treated Boots like a slave. Forced him to scavenge and steal for them. Once word came that the Witchfinder was campaigning through this area, the Opayol left to seek safety elsewhere. And they abandoned him here to fend for himself."
>
> Haniwa, "Plastic"

**Boots** is a supporting character in *SEE*. He is a son of Jerlamarel, gifted with the power of sight. Boots is portrayed by Franz Drameh, and first appeared in the Season One episode "The River." He was killed in the season 2 episode *Forever* by Queen Sibeth Kane.

## General info

Boots is the son of Jerlamarel and Delia, a member of the Opayol tribe. Gifted with the power of sight, Boots was left with the Opayol after Jerlameral moved on. The tribe treated him as a slave, forcing him to steal and scavenge for them. When word of Tamacti Jun's hunt for Jerlamarel and witches reached the Opayol, the tribe abandoned the village and left Boots behind.

Alone, Boots came upon the Alkenny group fleeing from Tamacti Jun. As they slept, he stole their weapons and valuables. Haniwa ventured into the Opayol village to recover them, where it was discovered that Boots had a symbol carved in his chest that Jerlamarel had instructed them to follow. Boots was taken back to the main group where he pledged to follow Baba Voss. When they found themselves surrounded by the Witchfinder army, Boots fought alongside the Alkenny.

Boots yearns to be accepted into a family and asks Haniwa if her mother, Maghra, would be able to love him over time.

This, however, seems to cover up his true motives. As a child Boots was bullied by the Opayol tribe and he eventually killed most of its members, allowing him and his mother, Delia, to survive. This seems to play a role in his motive to betray Baba Voss, Haniwa, Kofun, Paris, and Bow Lion by luring them down a pit to a shadowy, underground tribe.

Lady Zee

> "Lady Zee, send word to the land of the Sun Grave. Their charge is no longer to just find Jerlamarel. Their charge is to find his children... and bring them to me."
>
> Queen Kane, "Godflame"

**Lady Zee** is a minor character in *SEE*. She is a member of the Payan ruling council who serves at the pleasure of Queen Kane. Lady Zee is portrayed by Alex Bulmer, and appears in the episodes "Godflame" and "Message in a Bottle".

## Biography

Lady Zee was a member of the Payan ruling council. She attended a convention of the council where Queen Kane relayed Tamacti Jun's failure to capture Witches thought to be hiding among the Alkenny. Lady Zee was ordered by the Queen to send word to the Sun Grave that her Witchfinders would scour the kingdom in search of not only Jerlamarel, but his children as well.

Three years later, Zee was part of a conspiracy with Lord Carne to return Tamacti Jun and his Witchfinders to Paya as they felt that the Queen's obsession with Jerlamarel was impacting her rule. With the engines of the Kanzua Hydroelectric Dam failing, water was breaking through the dam wall with increasing frequency. Zee and Carne feared that they needed the army at Kanzua to deal with the unrest of the people. After forging a message from Tamacti Jun asking to be recalled, they passed it to Lord Sak to deliver. The Queen learned of the treachery as she and Tamacti had a secret code tied into their knots that was not replicated. The Queen killed Lord Sak after he gave her the names of Zee Carne and his co-conspirators. Arrested for treason, Zee tried to make the other assembled Payans see that the Queen was failing in her duties to protect the people. Lady Zee and Lord Carne were executed by electrocution, condemned of the crimes of treason and forgery.

Souter Bax

> "It was Baba Voss and it was Paris who condemned my mother... your own sister, to the bonfire. For what? Because she questioned the wisdom of letting a man like him, a stranger, who would not speak of his past, to be in charge of the village? They burned her because they feared she spoke the truth."
>
> Gether Bax to Souter Bax, "Message in a Bottle"

**Souter Bax** is a supporting character in *SEE*. She is a member of the Alkenny Tribe whose sister was condemned to burn after she opposed the election of Baba Voss to lead the Alkenny. Souter is portrayed by actor Marilee Talkington, and appears in the episodes "Godflame", "Message in a Bottle", "Fresh Blood", and "The River".

## Biography

Souter Bax is a member of the Alkenny tribe. She vocally opposed Baba Voss's plan to continue fighting the Witchfinder army attacking their village, and wanted to hand Maghra's children over to them in an attempt to spare the tribe. Despite this opposition, Souter joined the rest of the Alkenny in escaping the village ahead of the Witchfinders and establishing a new village.

Souter Bax saw little hope in opposing Baba Voss further, despite the fact that her own sister had been condemned to burn for opposing Baba Voss' leadership of the tribe. Along with her nephew, Gether Bax, Souter was convinced that Paris was a Witch, and tried employing the Alkenny's Shadow to find out the truth about her.

Seventeen years after the establishment of the new village, Souther and gether were lovers and expecting a child. However, the child was born malformed due to inbreeding. Souter angrily blamed Paris and Maghra for cursing her due to her belief that they were witches, and had caused her child to be born deformed. Because of the Alkenny's forced isolation from other tribes, they required an intake of fresh blood to prevent further inbreeding. The Dreamer convinced Baba Voss to take a contingent of Alkenny to a local festival to allow them to partake in the usual ceremonies.

When the Witchfinders finally found the location of the new Alkenny village, Souter and Gether Bax loudly called for the Alkenny to hold those she considered to be Witches so that they could be given over to the Witchfinder General. Baba Voss, his family and several others managed to escape before the arrival of the Witchfinders, but they considered the entire village to be complicit in hiding the children of Jerlamarel. Once Baba Voss and his companions escaped Tamacti Jun and his army, the Witchfinder General ordered the entire village to be killed.

The Lavender Road

**The Lavender Road** was the seventh episode of *SEE*.

## Synopsis

Tamacti Jun comes to the rescue of the two sister, helping them leave the silk farm behind. The pilgrims continue their arduous journey, but come to a three-pronged fork on the Lavender Road where they must decide on one of three paths.

## Plot

Tamacti Jun tortures the silk farm shadows until he learns Queen Kane’s location. Maghra agrees to join his rescue mission only after he orders a contingent to remain behind in a continued search for her family. She also argues for an alliance with Boots even though he has the ability to see. When they reach the silk farm, Tamacti Jun enters alone and kills several armed guards in an impressive display of violence.

In the scuffle, Queen Kane’s new ally Cora helps her kill Cutter. Tamacti is shocked when he learns of Kanzua’s destruction. How can Queen Kane expect his men to follow her after she killed their families? With Maghra among them once again, he thinks that maybe they should reconsider the Payan leader for the first time.

Meanwhile, Baba Voss, Kofun, Bow Lion, Paris, and Haniwa make their way across former farmlands. Paris implores Haniwa to reconcile with Baba, and she eventually makes an effort — fearing that the gap between her and Baba is widening as the world expands.

Our pilgrims find the Lavender Road, which leads them to a grisly display featuring a dead body suspended from a pole like a scarecrow. This haunting message warns of the new world beyond. Resolving to go on, the pilgrims reach a path with high rocky sides. The road is lined with archers capable of accurately firing on any target they hear despite their lack of sight.

Baba Voss manages to kill one, but Bow Lion is injured by one of their arrows. Haniwa tries to rescue her, causing Kofun to call out her name. Upon learning that two of the group are named Haniwa and Kofun, the lead archer tells them that beyond the path is a bridge to the House of Enlightenment, but only they may pass. Haniwa and Kofun leave the others with Baba Voss's blessing, but privately he resolves to be there for them when they need him.

Alkenny Village

The **Alkenny Village** is the home of the last of the Alkenny tribe. Located on a plateau with sheer drops and ravines on three sides, it is only reachable via a mountain approach. The Alkenny build their homes in the form of rectangular wooden shelters that also utilise fur and woven grasses, connected by ropes for guiding members of the tribe around the village. The Alkenny built walls of warning chimes to inform villagers when they were near the edge of the cliff faces. On the mountain approach, a wall of large stones and boulders was built to give the Alkenny a high vantage point to defend from aggression and, in last ditch defenses, could be released to send an avalanche of rocks into an enemy force.

Following the attack by Queen Kane's witchhunters the village was abandoned, with the Alkenny tribe eventually forming and settling in New Alkenny.
