Omadin
| |||||||||
- During the occupation of the Dericost town of Daralet by Yalaini soldiers, Omadin the Farmer accompanied Ilservian Palacost when he was banned from the village. [1]
- Omadin is described as "a rough farm boy embittered by the starvation of his entire clan". [1]
- Ilservian Palacost's forces assault the Empire's holdings in the Haebrous continent. The Yalaini forces lead a desperate retreat from the Haebrous lands. As the remnants of the Yalaini armies try to board ships bound for the Yalaini archipelago, Emperor Caerlin I and his Heiromancer guards challenge another Shadow general, Omadin.[2] Omadin lead an assault on the Yalaini rearguard, scattering it like chaff and scything through the weakly defended trains.[3] Emperor Caerlin I and his forces jumped into the breach, and there fought in single combat against Omadin.[3] Seeing his defeat imminent, Omadin called to himself the Black Madness[3] and summons a cloud of Black Breath to his defense.[2] Omadin was defeated and slain, but not before he infected the emperor with the Black Madness at the very moment his head was released from his body. [3][2]This poisons Caerlin, causing him agonizing pain, and in the coming years the pain increases as the patch grows and covers more of his arm, eventually driving him mad.[2]
- Three of the other companions of Ilservian Palacost, Isin Dule, Ferah and Ler Rhan survive the Third Sending of Darkness, the fifth, Elithra of Daralet is destroyed just like Omadin.
