The Sahasyas

The balance of life requires strength, perseverance, and co-existence. God Sahasya believed that the world of Illume, created by his father, the Almighty, should be ruled, controlled, and secured by a powerful race. Going against his sisters, Goddess Pragya and Aikya, he created the Sahasyas.

​

Sahasyas had fair skin, silver hairs and were often hefty. Frustrated by bloody inter-race rivalries, Sahasyasth was given to the Sahasyas by the Gods when they divided the world into three. After the Wrath of Almighty (Story in Illume), God Sahasya abandoned Illume and left the Sahasyas in disarray. Illumanes even believed that God Sahasya created The Death Smog to prevent anyone from following him. But the Sahasyas never wavered, and through strong determination, turned the barren lands of Sahasyasth into the richest country in Illume. Known to be the toughest and ruthless, they always strived to control the world. Through numerous wars, a strong army, and shrewd politics, they were able to subdue their arch-enemy, the Pragyas. Even the peaceful Aikyas often switched sides and bowed down to the might of the Sahasyas.

 

For two thousand years, Sahasyasth was ruled by the great Sahasyam family of the Vatyas. The First King, Mahabali Vatya, brought Sahasyasth out of turbulent stages of infancy. His descendants brought slaves, glory, peace, and converted the proud communities of their subjects into the great cities of Illume.

 

But after the legendary defeat by the Pragyas led by Surya Manu a century ago (From the point where the story begins), the Sahasyas were forced to move their capital from the Holy City of Dharma to Viryasth. This enormous defeat by the Pragyas shook the foundation of the great Sahasyam Empire of the Vatyas. They would be usurped by their General, Bali Renaud, in the decades to come.

 

When the story begins, Sahasyasth is ruled by Bali's son, Avir Renaud, who is constantly at odds with his brother, Hrikin Renaud. Illume is a world ready to punish for the smallest of mistakes. How the Sahasyas, and their King, The Renauds, would face the changing world that has begun to rise from the Ashes?
