Home: Waejiradur, Waejir
History: The real Dractios Waejirus is shrouded in myth and legend, his birth name is forgotten; his accepted name means "mountain-like of-fate-approved". What follows is a generally accepted description. of the man, and some of his deeds:; Dractios was one of the firstborn children of the gods, birthed by mortal women. His hair was copper, and his eyes were like topaz. He is said to have been nearly half again the height of a ordinary treahni, and to have possessed fantastic powers over the elements, as proof of his divine parentage.
The High Nobles: As these strange children with precious metals for hair, and gemstones for eyes became known, elevated themselves above ordinary mortals as divinely chosen rulers of the treahni. While not all the seven cities agreed with becoming a unified empire initially, Dractios lead an impressive army, and encouraged acceptance of High Noblitiy as a ruling class. As more and more of these demigods joined his campaign, the treahni nobility eventually acquiesced to being second tier citizens above the commoners, but below the royal line composed entirely of High Nobles. This caste system (High Nobles -> Nobles -> Commoners -> Slaves) has remained in place since the founding of Waejir. Today, each city of Waejir is considered the principality of a High Noble Prince or Princess, but under the umbrella of the Emperor seated in Waejiradur.
