Araray, the Elven King

Araray, the elven king and other who rules beside the empowered elven queen Diona, is known for his immortality and accompanying adroitness in the arts of powerful wizardry and the manipulation of the elements given by the Aurya. He is believed to be just as quintessential and flawless to the elven people of Arethayn as Diona, the golden of the light manifesting in his spectacular appearance of a certain radiance and purity. As the ruling elven king, he is known to possess far greater magics than those of his underlings, though he does illuminate the way to the idealized perfection of himself for his students, teaching them the ways in which the elements can be manipulated through the use of potent magics. His teachings in the arcane arts are often related to the acknowledgement of the crystallized of the Aurya and how they became divine, being mere spectacles of light which emerged from a time where the light reigned supreme and mana knew no bounds as shards of the light. These teachings are also related to his students as evidence of their sanctified purity, proclaiming that all races of man which exist outside their world of greatness are simply beings of unsophistication and accordingly, unworthy of the life given by the light.

Araray, the elven, ageless patriarch of Arethayn who rules beside the immaculate and empowered elven queen of Diona, is one of the original Cephareth who managed to survive into modernity as a result of his adroitness in the arts of powerful wizardry and the magics practiced by the Cephareth. As a result of his survival, he is praised and acknowledged as the king of Arethayn who has ruled the land upon the event of the deaths of the other Cephareth from these times. He is believed to be a quintessential format of all of the elven peoples as he represents the perfection of the Cephareth that had since become spoiled as the curse of Azratha was instigated, and which had changed the elven peoples from their more perfect forms in the beginning time which did not have a need for reproduction. Thus, Araray is an artifact from these times, and accordingly, possesses a great wisdom that can only be described to originate from his status as a deified Cephareth that had since ascended to the throne. In addition to this great status observed throughout the peoples of the elven state of Arethayn, he is known to possess far greater powers and deific abilities than those of his underlings and, as a result, is known to instruct those beneath him in the arts of magic which he is so adroit with and those which he had preserved from the previous era of which light knew no limitations among the mortal plane.

Because of the believed purity of Araray as the sole survivor of the curse of death which plagued the original powers of the Cephareth, he oftentimes regales his tales of how the Cephareth had formed themselves in the times of Caelarkhe’s presence, with the underlying indication of these stories being their superiority to the mortal races of man which existed from without Caelarkhe’s blessing.

As the ruler of Arethayn, he is known to be admired as a divinely powerful mage, with many coming to him in order to cleanse themselves of their imperfection through the use of his banishing magics. He is also believed to be just to his people and thus, supremely wise and possessing greater advice and patronage, his illustrious power of wizardry not believed to be his only virtue. This advice is oftentimes tinged with a degree of righteousness and arrogance, as noted by the elven peoples that were excommunicated from Arethayn, the advent of his lordship having marked a new era for them to become apart from the land of ever-flowing mana.
