Sildara

Sildara

The forest nation of Sildara, home of the Sildaryn peoples, occupies a vast forested region covering the Eastern arm of the continent of Annexea. This forest covers many latitudes, from tropical rainforest in the South transitioning through to temperate regions in the North.

The Sildaryn people live in groups that follow cyclical nomadic migrations. The have a series of tree house villages which they occupy as stopovers along their migratory loops. Depending on the time of year the hinta occupying a given site differs. They engage in trade by proxy, leaving goods for future visitors and taking away items they may need from goods left by past ones.

In their distant past the Sildaryn people migrated from the region occupied by the People of the Ark. Mostly due to differences of opinion on matters of ecology and moral obligations towards the planet and its prior occupants. This separation allowed their culture and species to diverge from the remaining treahni. The Sildaryn's consider the entire forest region sacred, and maintain it in as natural a state as possible. They chose to live in harmony with nature rather than bending it to their will.

Bassir Jencho

Dalfyn (shaman/druid) of the Sun Piper Hinta.

Bassir is a spiritual leader amongst the hinta of his birth. He guides his people in all matters of spirit. Dalfyn are so revered by the Sildaryn that every last man, woman, and child will fight to protect them should they be threatened. The dafyn have a talent for spellsinging; a form of magic unique to the Sildaryn. Singing to/with the spirit of living, and (in rare instances) inanimate things, allows for subtle manipulation of the natural world.
