The land of Es’Rua in the South of Neyarazin is known by the Formar as the Strickened Heart. It was once a seat of power for the legendary Formar King Iridon who, wishing to seal his legacy, bargained with a Spirit to sire an immortal child, one who would guard the Formar lands from the arising Diar Parlas. Unbeknown to the King, the Spirit with whom he communed was a malevolent Unseer of the Spirit Realm – Azrulir. As with all Unseers, Azrulir sought his power through the feeding on sorrow, strife, and regret. Seeing in in the aging King an abundance of goodness he hungered to feed upon Iridon’s downfall.

 Azrulir took on the physical avatar of a brave warrior from afar, who arrived at a time when the King’s daughter Ygril was in mourning for her husband – who had in fact been slain by Azrulir in his guise. Azrulir fought valiantly to protect Iridon and Ygril from would-be usurpers in their hour of need, and eventually married Ygril with the King’s blessing. Azrulir taught many gifts of Magic and ritual to Ygril, poisoning her mind to believe that drinking the life force – blood – of their enemies would mitigate against the perils of using Magic continuously. Ygril’s faith in Azrulir brought this concept to be and eventually the Princess found that blood wildly fuelled her Magical expertise.

 The years passed in harmony for Iridon until the day upon which he lay on his death-bed. Azrulir chose this moment to reveal his true face to Iridon with Ygril by his side, her mouth stained with the gore of her most recent feeding frenzy. As Iridon’s soul twisted in horror Azrulir placed his hands on the King, absorbing every ounce of his torment.
