Nyokyi

Description of the Téhos-Luçeçéhël (Our People) / Nyokyians



Early History

The unrecorded racial genocide of the native Wüslhaw̃ch of the southern isle ended during the reign of Múnshu, the Last Conqueror, the Father of the First King, the Great Strategist, the Red Death. He succesfully defeated the remaining defending armies, filling the veins of his war-torn cities with yet unmourned blood. Through this massacre he will forever cast his image upon history, as well as the future of the great Nyokyi. He started a royal ligneage, which is to this day unbroken.

Wátman, the Third Hand, the Eyes of the Abyss, the False Heir, the Black Vengeance, recorded all these events in his "Histories of War". On top of this, his research into the shamanistic, blood-cultivated magic resulted in the publication of "The Art of Death". He was the secretive, widely feared right hand man of the King of the time. He not only recorded and researched much of his Kingdom, but he was also responsible for the creation of the Manyèçúli (Shadowthrone), colloquially known as the Shu-Tetényaç (Big Brothers). He was so trusted and beloved by the King, that he was made heir in place of the King's own eldest son, Sòtlin.

Sòtlin, the Second Son, the Unchosen Heir, the False Blood, overthrew Wátman in a spiteful attempt to reclaim what was his. His death was never confirmed, leaving speculations that the near-immortal Wátman is still alive and plotting his revenge against the, in his view unjust, lineage of Kings. Before he could accomplish anything truly great, his own son usurped him, parading his head on the floating city of O'ounyúpsony (Ocean Forest). In doing so, he warned the neighbouring peoples of the Nyokyi threat.
