Ninuru

Ninuru and Tunuva by Telënia Alberquerque

**Ninuru** was an ichneumon, born in the Priory of the Orange Tree and bonded to Tunuva Melim. She was almost as tall as Tunuva, with white fur and black eyes, and about her age. Ninuru was the smallest ichneumon in her litter and since the day Tunuva fed her meat, she was fully loyal to her, even to the point of sacrificing her own life for Tunuva's sake. From the fact that Tunuva spent plenty of time with Esbar uq-Nāra, it can be assumed that Ninuru was close to Jeda, the ichneumon bonded to Esbar.
Ichneumon

**Ichneumons** are creatures native to the South. They are the sworn enemies of wyrms and has made it their mission to exterminate wyrmkind, this by forming an alliance with the Priory of the Orange Tree. During the first century of the Current Era, a pack of them entered the Lasian Basin to serve the Mother and was taught to speak by her handmaidens. They are known to be loyal to a fault.

## Description

Ichenumons resemble mongooses in the way a lion resembles a cat and can grow to be at least as tall as a human, with the ability to run faster than a horse and carry several riders. They have long, sharp claws and piercing fangs. There are plenty of possible fur colours, such as black white brown and golden shades.  Most ichneumons have amber eyes, with the pupils laying fesswise.

## The Priory

During the era of *A Day of Fallen Night,* every Sister of the Priory got to choose a cub, which she fed meat. The young ichneumon would then imprint on her for life. As the ichneumons are extremely loyal and would die for the person they are bonded to, the Sisters of the Priory were thoroughly taught to respect them and how to care for them. The Sister is personably responsible for her ichneumon's well being and safety, and would it be that it died or was hurt, it would be punishable and the greatest form of dishonour. An example of this would be the *munguna* who was denied her post as Prioress due to her neglecting her ichneumon.

## Known ichneumons

* **Aralaq**
* **Barsega** (Bonded to Gashan Janudin)
* **Dartun** (A male, sand coloured ichneumon, bonded to Hidat Janudin)
* **Farna** (Bonded to Yeleni Janudin)
* **Jeda** (A black ichneumon, bonded to Esbar uq-Nāra)
* **Lalhar** (A female, brown ichneumon, bonded to Siyu uq-Nāra)
* **Ninuru** (A female, white ichneumon, bonded to Tunuva Melim)

## Trivia

* Ichneumons from the Priory refer to the Sister they are bonded to as their 'little sisters'.
* They have the ability to roar.
* They despise horses.

Aubrecht II

**SPOILERS FOR *THE PRIORY OF THE ORANGE TREE***

At the beginning of PRIORY **Aubrecht II** was the High Prince of Mentendon and the prince consort of Queen Sabran IX of Inys. He had three younger sisters, Ermuna, Bedona, and Betriese. Aubrecht was highly religious and spent plenty of time reading prayer books. His patron was the Knight of Generosity. With Sabran he had an unborn daughter named Glorian. Aubrecht was killed in Sylvan-by-the-River, Inys.

## Physical description

Aubrecht was a 34-year-old man with red hair and light skin. He was broad-shouldered and taller than Sabran. His eyes were dark and, according to Sabran, judging from a miniature, a trifle too close together, putting her in mind of a dormouse.
Cárscaro

**Cárscaro**, formerly known as Kárkaro, is the capital of Yscalin. The city is located on a ridge high up in the Spindles and overlooks the Great Yscali Plain. Before the country's Draconic period, the city was famed for its masques, its music and the red pear trees that grew along its streets. The only entryway to the city is called the Gate of Niunda, a colossal statue depicting the old deity it is named after, carved from green and black granite.

During the Draconic period, six wyverns guarded the entrance to the city while traitors and criminals hanged from the gate's lintel, to feed the Draconic creatures and keep them from harming the rest of the population. About a decade prior to the events of *The Priory of the Orange Tree,* lava falls started appearing in the capital. To deal with this issue, the Yscals dug canals through the city, leading the lava away. The canals form six forks and merge into one pool, from where it cascades down to the lower slope of the country, cooling into volcanic glass on the way.

The Palace of Salvation is the seat of the House of Vetalda, and is described as a tower of volcanic rock and glass, standing in the city's center. Its entrance is surrounded by lifelike carvings of Draconic creatures. While the palace is generally described as gloomy, the rooms reserved for the ambassadors-in-residence are described as being luxurious and well-kept. The palace is lit by Draconic fire.

Nayimathun

Nayimathun and Tané by doodles & co.

**Nayimathun of the Deep Snows** is an lacustrine dragon associated with tricksters and wanderers, thieves and the homeless, as well as the lacustrine Lake of the Deep Snows. She fought in the Great Sorrow, known to be old even then. She joined and aided Dumai, Kanifa and Furtia in their search for the astronomer Tonra on the mountain of Brhazat in CE 511. Many years later, in CE 1005, she took Tané as her Rider and joined the High Sea Guard. Nayimathun desired a sisterly bond with her, which was hard for Tané to accept at first, as she found it strange not needing to use the type of respectful language befitted for the god Tané sees her as.

## Physical description

Nayimathun is approximately a thousand years old and of giant stature. Tané describes her as being almost as giant as a dragon of which she could not, at her full length, reach between Nayimathun's snout and eye. The hide of Nayimathun is a pale, clouded green, like the colour of milk jade, and her mane the colour the golden brown of riverweed. Her voice is described as sounding like a war conch, whale song and the distant rumble of storm, smoothed into words.

## Trivia

* Nayimathun was originally suppoused to be a much brighter green, but the author changed her mind when she saw an early version of the cover of The Priory of the Orange Tree by Ivan Belikov with the dragon's current colours.

Sterren

**Sterren** or s*idereal magic* is one of the two branches of magic in the world of the Roots of Chaos, the other being siden. There is a delicate balance between them as explained by the Tablet of Rumelabar. Sterren originates from a comet that goes by various names, including Kwiriki's Lantern and the Long-Haired Star. It visits the world of about every 500 years to cool siden before it grows too strong. It is a very difficult magic to master, because it is unearthly in nature.

Those who use it make use of a substance called star rot, left behind by the comet. Those who use sidereal magic are capable of creating powerful illusions, invading the mind of others, and changing their shapes. The witch Kalyba used star rot in the creation of the sword Ascalon.
Lasia

The **Domain of Lasia** is an nation in The South, on the continent of Edin. It is bordered by Yscalin to the north, the Halassa Sea to the west, the Ersyr to the west, and the Eria to the south. Its capital is Nzene. The leader of Lasia is known as the High Ruler and the current one is Kagudo Onjenyu. Notable cities in Lasia include Dimabu, Majigu, Yikala, Kumenga, and Jotenya. The Priory of the Orange Tree is located in Lasia, in the Lasian Basin.

## Geography

#### Mountains

Lasian mountain ranges include the Godsblades, which surrounds the city of Nzene in northeast, a southern part of the Spindles right above, and the Uluma mountains in the south. Notable mountains include Mount Dinduru in the north and Mount Kiri in the south.

#### Deserts

As Lasia is part of the South, it is quite hot and dry where rivers don't pierce the country. The three main deserts are the Scorchlands in the northwest part, the Crimson Desert to the south of Nzene and the Godsblades, and the Desert of Suttu which surrounds the Uluma mountains in far south of the country.

#### Bodies of water

The western part of Lasia borders the Halassa sea, and by such, it has a long coast. The four main rivers are Urudu, Minara, Gedanya and Jungo, going north to south in that order. There is also a lake, called Jodigo, north of the Crimson desert.

#### The Lasian Basin

The Lasian Basin is a immense, rainforest-like jungle, located in the center-west of Lasia, and is considered to be unchartable.

## Early history

The Domain of Lasia has been around for at least a thousand years and came into existance when the Five states of Lasia united under one dynasty, the House of Onjenyu. The first high ruler descended from a Libir noble family and Suttu the Dreamer. The former states (Libir, Taano etc. ) lives on as different dialects in the Lasian language, Taano being the most widely spoken, closelt followed by Libir.

## Known rulers and High Rulers

* **Jeda** 'the Merciful' , queen of the Taano State during Suttu's time.
* **Selinu Onjenyu** 'Oathkeeper', during the time of the Nameless One.
* **Unnamed High Ruler**, son of Selinu and half brother of Cleolind Onjenyu.
* **Kediko VIII**, during the Grief of Ages.

Feather Island is a small Seiikinese island to the southeast of the mainland. Notable places include Cape Quill. It is where apprentices who do not make the High Sea Guard are sent to become scholars. They are not held in high regard by the apprentices. The longest-serving scholars are known as Elders.

Siden

**Siden** or *terrene magic* is one of the two branches of magic in the world of the Roots of Chaos, the other being sterren. There is a delicate balance between them. When siden rises, sterren wanes, and vice-versa. This is explained by the Tablet of Rumelabar. Siden originates from the fiery core of the world, known as the Womb of Fire. It rises naturally to the surface through siden trees, and can be harnessed by mages, who use it to wield fire and cast wardings. The sisters of the Priory are an example of this. When siden grows too strong, it can create fire-breathing wyrms and wyverns.

## Siden trees

There are three siden trees: The Mulberry tree on Komoridu, Seiiki, the Hawthorn tree on Nurtha, Inys, and the Orange tree in the Domain of Lasia. The latter's fruit was consumed by Cleolind Onjenyu and proved instrumental in her defeat of the Nameless one. She is the firstblood of the Orange tree. The firstblood of the Mulberry tree is Neporo, and the one of the Hawthorn tree is the Kalyba, the witch.
Glorian II

**Glorian II,** also known as Glorian Hartbane, was the tenth queen of Inys. Her marriage of love to Isalarico IV of Yscalin brought his country into the Six Virtues of Knighthood, creating the Chainmail of Virtudom. She was a gifted hunter.

## Trivia

High Westerns

**SPOILERS: *A DAY OF FALLEN NIGHT***

The High Westerns are the highest ranked of western dragons and other draconic beings and the greatest servants of the Nameless One. They lead the Draconic Army during the Grief of Ages / The Great Sorrow and were the first to emerge from Dreadmount after it's second eruption during CE 509. Highest ranked is Fýredel, right wing of the Nameless One.

## Physical description

High Westerns are substantially larger than the other kinds of draconic beings, with four legs and wings. They differ in color, but are all horned with long, spiky tails and the ability to breathe fire and speak in human tongues. Arteloth Beck describes Fýredel as being over 200 feet long from snout to the tip of his tail, which could give us a hint of the size of the other High Westerns as well.

## History

Birthed from the Womb of Fire, High Westerns are, like all wyrms, creatures of fire and destruction. They were created from an imbalance between the two primary sources of magic in the world; siden and sterren. This is the main difference between the siden-made fire breathers of the West and the sterren-infused "true dragons" of the East. After the comet that ended Grief of Ages / Great sorrow, the High Westerns hid, like most draconic creatures, in inaccesible places, such as mountains, deserts and deep forests, to fall into a deep slumber. This sleep would last centuries unless they were disturbed by unlucky explorers.

Fýredel bred the draconic army, creating lesser creatures like wyverns, They themselves procreated with a multitude of other creatures, like wolves, elks and livestock, to create even lesser beings, like the cockatrice. The vast array of mutated draconic beings are the result of these unnatural unions.

A High-Western, whilst extremely powerful, can be killed by a skilled warrior. The High Sea-Guard of Seiiki and the Warriors of the Priory are specifically trained to fight draconic creatures. When a High-Western is killed, every draconic creature that is descended from their bloodline loses it's fire. Whilst this does not kill the creatures, it renders them less dangerous and makes them easier to hunt and kill.

During the events of *The Priory of the Orange Tree,* a sixth High Western appeared, with white scales and green eyes.

## The original five High Westerns

### Dedalugun

Dedalugun resided mainly in the South. He was the one who turned Carmentum to ashes and was named by the Southerners. He was slayed by Esbar du Apaya uq-Nāra and Tunuva Melim with the help of the magical spear Mulsub as well as the Waning Jewel in Nzene, CE 512.

### Orsul

Orsul was named by the Mentish and harrowed in the North.

### Taugran the Golden

Taugran (*splendid death)* plagued the East, especially Seiiki. It made its lair upon Muysima, an isle at the west of Seiiki. It was named by the Lacustrine and were slayed by the combined effort of seven Eastern dragons and Dumai. All involved lost their lives over the island of Muysima in CE 512.

### Valeysa

Valeysa crossed between the North and the East and was named by the Hróthi.

The country is located on the continent of Edin and is bordered by the Swan Strait to the north, the Halassa Sea to the west, Mentendon to the east, and Lasia to the south. It also borders the Ersyr. Its capital is the city of Cárscaro. The country is a hereditary monarchy, ruled by House of Vetalda. Its current monarch is King Sigoso III, with his daughter Marosa Vetalda as regent. Notable cities in Yscalin include Córvugar, Vazuva, Perunta, and Samana.

Before the Draconic time, Yscalin was known for its masques, music and red pear trees. The country's seal formerly depicted Ascalon the sword beside a pear, which then was changed for two Western dragons and a sword broken at its middle.

## History

It was the first country to join Inys in Virtudom, when King Isalarico IV of Yscalin wed Queen Glorian II of Inys out of love in CE 279. He converted his country to the Six Virtues and it stayed a part of the Chainmail of Virtudom until CE 1003. Then Fýredel seized control of Cárscaro, and under his orders king Sigoso declared his allegiance the Nameless One, making the wyrm the country's only god. The country was renamed *The Draconic Kingdom of Yscalin* and Fýredel became its official leader, with Sigoso as the 'flesh king'.

## Geography

### Mountains

Yscali mountain ranges include the Saurga Mountains, in the country's center, and the Spindles. forming a natural border against Mentendon to the east and against the Ersyr.

The mine called Hart Grove, home of Lord Guma Vetalda, is located in the eastern parts of the Saurga Mountains.

### Bodies of water

Three main rivers trickle through Yscalin: Salza, Armata and Gáuria. The river Salza connects to the Halassa Sea and is located in the north, west of the river Armata, which has its beginning in the Spindles and ends in the Swan Strait. It is the longest river. To the south, the river Gáuria flows from the the Saurga Mountains to Quarl Bay, a part of the Halassa Sea.

### Plains

The Great Yscali Plain is vast open land covering a major part of the Yscali south-west. Before it was burned by wyrms during the country's time as a Draconic kingdom, it was covered by growing lavenders. Formerly, there was also a plain in the north-eastern part of the country, called the Vetalda Plain, where the river Salza now floats.

## Known rulers

* **Isalarico IV**, during the later part of the second century.
* **Rozaria III**, during the Grief of Ages.

The tablet of Rumelabar

**The Tablet of Rumelabar** is a long-lost tablet unearthed in the city of Rumelabar in the Ersyr. It has long since puzzled alchemists who have tried to ascertain its meaning.

*What is below must be balanced by what is above,*

*and in this is the precision of the universe.*

*Fire ascends from the earth, light descends from the sky.*

*Too much of one doth inflame the other,*

*and in this is the extinction of the universe.*

*What is below* is siden, and *what is above* is sterren. In order for there to be harmony both must be equal in power. However, prior to the birth of the Nameless One, sterren grew too powerful. With this, two jewels of star rot, the Celestial Jewels, were created. These allowed the dragons of the East powers such as shape-shifting and many more. However this inflamed siden, and resulted in the birth of the Nameless one.

Tané

Art by Liuet (@liuet on tumblr)

**Tané** is a Seiikinese orphan from Ampiki who was drafted into the a House of Learning as a child to train for the High Sea Guard. She was also the principal apprentice from the South House. Tané formally began her training in CE 991, dreaming of becoming a god-chosen dragonrider. During CE 1005, she joined the High Sea Guard and the dragon Nayimathun chose her as her Rider after the Water trials. She reveres dragons highly and is often longs to prove herself worthy of being a Rider.

## Description

Tané is a 19 year old woman with black hair and brown skin. She is described as having a hook-shaped scar on her cheek, which she got from a face off with street-urchins as

## Relationships

Tané formed a close friendship with another orphaned girl, Susa. The two were close enough that Tané trusted Susa to hide Triam Sulyard, an outsider, for her, a crime which is punishable by death. Susa does so without questioning. They met in CE 997.

Tané has also formed friendships with other trainees at the House of Learning, first among them Ishari, her long-term roommate. Her other friends include Dumusa and Onren, both talented warriors. Turosa from the North House, on the other hand, sees her as his rival and often harasses her for not being of noble birth or related to any of the Clan Miduchi.

Nayimathun desired a sisterly bond with Tané, which was hard for her to accept at first, as she found it strange not needing to use the type of respectful language befitted for the god Tané sees the dragon as. Over time, such a bond developed between them.

## Trivia

* Tané is the character Samantha Shannon most relates to.
* Tané is aro-ace.
* Although Samantha Shannon has never seen someone who looks exactly how she imagines Tané, actress Haruna Kawaguchi comes close.

Thrit of Isborg

Thrit by Annalise Jensen

**WARNING: MILD SPOILERS FOR *A DAY OF FALLEN NIGHT.***

Thrit was part of the same *lith* as the legendary Wulfert Glenn, led by Regny of Askrdal and consisting of Eydag of Geldruth, Vell of Mágruth, Karlsten of Vargoy and Sauma of Vakróss. By the beginning of *NIGHT,* he began to develop romantic feelings towards Wulf, which he nurtured and tried to hint about to Wulf, who was obvious until Thrit kissed him, two years later.

Thrit had dark eyes, a muscular build and were always close to laughter, though capable to be serious. Thrit was adventurous and wished to discover to world and sail over the Abyss to the East and see the Empire of the Twelve Lakes. His grandparents were Easterners and he longed to know more of his ancestry. At the end of *A Day of Fallen Night*, he follows his dream together with Wulf, who had by then become his partner.

## Trivia

* Thrit is a heavy sleeper.
* He is also fond of romantic gestures.

Galian Berethnet

**SPOILER WARNING: Both books**

**Galian Berethnet** was the Knight of Courage and the first King of Inys. He was born in the village of Goldenbirch in the Isles of Inysca (later known as Inys). He supposedly defeated the Nameless One in Lasia, and went on to marry the alleged Princess Cleolind of the House of Onjenyu of Lasia. He returned to Inys with her, and founded the House of Berethnet and the religion the Virtues of Knighthood. In Virtudom and the West, he is worshipped and regarded as a saint. In the South, he is generally disliked and called Galian the Deceiver.

## Biography

Galian was kidnapped from Goldenbirch as a baby by the witch Kalyba. He was suppoused to act like a human sacrifice, to unlock deeper magic. Sentimentality kept her from killing the child, and instead, she raised him as her own on the isle of Nurtha. He left Nurtha at age 25, to become a knight of Edrig of Arondine. Nine years later Galian returned, begging begging his mother for help: He wanted to unite the isles of Inysca under one crown and to rule according to the six virtues of knighthood. To do this, he had to slay the Nameless One, to prove himself. Galian and Kalyba made a bargain: She would give him the magical sword Ascalon, to slay the beast, and when he returned he would marry her, as she had begun to love him as companions do.

Galian though had no intention of wedding her and instead sought out another of royal blood: Cleolind Onjenyu. Kalyba knew this as she had followed him. When he was defeated and exiled by Cleolind, he didn't seek Kalyba out. She was furious and somehow gained the sterren ability to influence his mind. When they met again, Galian thought her to be Cleolind and forgot not just Kalyba, but also what Cleolind had done and said to him, nor could he remember her shape, and erroneously believed he had banished the Nameless One back into the abyss. By so, he took back who he thought was Cleolind, united the isles and unknowingly married his adoptive mother.

When Kalyba birthed their daughter Sabran, she used so much of her strength that her control over Galian faded, and he regained all of his memories. He had her thrown in the dungeons and later had every image of her destroyed. After that, Galian entrusted Ascalon to the line of Beck at Goldenbirch and killed himself.

## Trivia

* The name "Galian" comes from the Old English "galla" ("bitterness, suffering, impudence") + "lian", a suffix indicating repetition. Could be translated as either "endless courage" or "endless suffering".
* The Berethnet name originates from Old English "berēafian" ("to bereave, to deprive, to seize") + næht ("night"). Could be translated as seize the night.

The **Free State of Mentendon** is an nation in The West, located on the continent of Edin.

Notable cities in Mentendon include Zeedeur, Kantmarkt, Rozentun, Spilda, Ostendeur, Gulthaga, and Wilgastrōm.

## History

A catastrophic flood, the Midwinter Flood, hit the country in CE 480. It struck the northern coast, killing thousands and destroying the former capital, Thisunath. In its aftermath, one year later, the Hróthi raider Heryon Vattenvarg attacked Mentendon. The Mentish soon had to give up the fight, due to their devastated coastal defences, lack of allies and the surprise element of the attack. Vattenvarg then claimed the country for himself and his clan, founding the House of Vatten as well as a new capital, Brygstad. In CE 483, after the War of Twelve Shields ended, he pledged his alligiance to King Bardholt I of Hróth in exchange for the betrothal of his daughter Brenna to the royal heir of Hróth, Einlek Ólrunsbarn Hraustr. Vattenvarg is then named Steward of Mentendon and converts to the Six Virtues, forcing the Ments to convert as well, and by so, bringing Mentendon into Virtudom.

Before the time of the Vatten, the country was a fascinating place, a crucible of cultures and religions as it was at the crossroads of the West, the North and the South. Its oldest indigenous religion is one that posed a rivalry between the Smith of the Earth (who is tied to the Dreadmount) and the Smith of the Heavens.

## Trivia

* Mentendon is primarily based on the Netherlands.
