| |||||||||
Character and Background
- Yalaini Emperor, successor of Emperor Keldin, 8th in the Line of Alaidain, original name:Delophon Realaidain
- Third Sending of Darkness
Reports from Daralet of people, especially children, simply disappearing begin to trickle in to the Imperial capital of Tentael. As these reports and stories spread, the populace in neighboring villages become terrified. Emperor Caerlin sends forces to the borders of the Empire to investigate. [Lord Atlan]] is amongst those who do not return.[1]
When Bael'Zharon'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][4]
- With the defeat of Bael'Zharon, Emperor Caerlin I declares a new age for the Empire.[2]
- Emperor Caerlin I is finally consumed by the disease given to him by his exposure to a swath of Black Breath and dies. His son, Durglen, ascends to the throne and takes the Imperial name of Emperor Caerlin II. [2]
