King Sheyda

Pre-Artésque:
The true life Sheyda's before Artésque is not really known, at some point he had become a Lord within the Únoff Lordship, though he was not one of much power. Additionally, Sheyda assumed the title of lord very early on, mostly within his early twenties, rather rare for the Únoff Lordship. This may have been one reason he was choose to be wed to Emperor Gust's daughter near the end of the Oválll as many may have seen him as easily persuaded due to his age and lack of experience. Of course with the crown and all those associated with it being affected by the Krosta Ó Desatá, the plan to make him more of a pawn ruler failed. Instead, Sheyda assumed the title of King as he was the only officially sanctioned Únoff within Artésque that had land under his Lordship.

Ruling The Crystoreeñ
As the King of the Crystoreeñ, Sheyda was a fair albeit somewhat quite leader. As Sheyda saw it, the city of the Crystoreeñ was a bastion for hope where all of The Three could come and set aside their differences. The problem was that many choose to bring old world grudges and disputes into the city. While Sheyda and his wife would eventually quell problems as they arises, it took the young King some time to actually gain the respect he needed to truly rule. (See the Crystoreeñ for more details on his rule).

The Fall From Grace
King Sheyda did eventually come into his own as a king, never once abusing his power or overstepping the peace treaty he held in such high regards. But, Queen Aeróbeth fell ill early on. Sheyda, despite the somewhat forced nature of their union had come to love his wife and sought everything within his power to heal. One such this was the first Stoná, which Sheyda used in an attmpt to save his wife from death. While we would eventually succeeded in this task (Crystoreeñ) it cost him both his life and the city itself. Sheyda's actions lead the city to be swallowed by a storm of magic, one that swept it away from the land and into its own pocket dimension. There it stayed for over fifty years, trapped by the storm of magic Sheyda created.

Return Of The Purple King
Nearly ten years (real time) after the Crystoreeñ's disappearance the city returned to the normal plain of existence via a magical tether created by Sóltina. With the city's return so too did Sheyda, who saw the new comers as invaders and attempted to stop them from reaching the city. Among the fighting Sheyda struck his own father-in-law, infecting his very being with the corrosive magic that spawned Sheyda's form. It is not known why Sheyda did this though it is assumed that his mind has long since been lost to the magic that consumed him.

Life During The City's Banishment
There were some within the city who attempted to make contact with the outside world before Sóltina saved them. However, not only did the magic form a never ending blizzard of magic around the city but it also psychically moved the city further to the East and sunk it beneath the ground, forming a sort of dome bubble of magic that the Stoná used to protect the people within. Despite this, there have been occurrences where explorers from the city managed to make it deep within the blizzard. The explorers aimed to map where they were so that they could better prepare for the perceived lengthy journey into the snow, yet many succumb to the cold, others however spoke of something within it. Rumors spread among those who ventured out into the snow of a shadowy figure that hunts within the snow, while not truly malevolent, the shadow seemed to attack any who attempted to venture to far from the city. Or, in Clover's case, too close.
