Particularly with Anne Phayllos, one of her closest and most trusted friends who worked under her around The Great Somnus Mansion in its maintenance and preservation. Anne often supervises herself and her Menagerie of pets. Though upon her arrival in Rathnir, these fond times became more distant in thought becoming fuzzier as she progressed in the new land.

Beginnings
Xarahh would join up with her Brother Jonathan Lozharo and Sister Elizabeth Lozharo in their newly established home of Farrenore in the Northern Shores of Sparwood where she would soon call Home often being seen at the shipyard fishing or at the apothecary brewing when doing neither of those pursuits, she would accompany her Brother or Sister in their trips visiting towns and cities around the region from Vosokogrod to Lileanen, in one of these trips she would be introduced to Anerias Magistri the Duke of Suderen, the two would quickly hit it off, becoming very close and in time become lovers, and upon their engagement would move in to live with her new fiancé at Vollressal.

Duchess of Suderen
Following her marriage to Anerias Magistri, Xarahh would in effect become the Duchess of Suderen, one of the many Duchies of the Soleannen Empire of Escharia, Suderen as a Land was uniquely positioned between Sparwood, Nieden and Plagos at the Crossroads of Three Continents, the land marked the edge of the Core intercontinental holdings of Escharia. In her time as Duchess, she would work rather attentively alongside her husband, slowly learning the ropes the position entailed, in her determination to be accepted in her new homeland, she would begin her Studies of its Culture, Traditions and History of the Land, often studying late into night learning the History of Escharia, the lives of the Saints and the intricacies of the Soleannen Church with its various teachings, even getting up early to stoke the palace fireplaces alongside the Servants and Maids of the Castle conversing with them to further practise their Native Tongue and to hone her own pronunciations of the language quickly endearing herself to the People. When not studying or taking in her Various learning regiments she would not be too far from Anerias accompanying her husband side by side almost daily through numerous public events, various meetings with the other Nobles and participating in Construction Projects in the Duchy becoming one of the core parts of the growing community forming around Suderen.

Queen of Suderen
Following the disintegration of the Solea-Audal Union and the various declarations of War against Escharia causing the Empire to fracture into Instability, with the Duchies of Suderen and Tymarat seceding from the Empire in the chaos that followed. With Anerias in his Secession from the Empire, elevating the Duchy of Suderen into a Kingdom, with Xarahh being raised up as its Queen alongside Anerias, during this interlude, Xarahh would increasingly develop a mentality of utilising her position for the People this mindset stems as a result of her having been uprooted from her former home, now newly proclaimed as its Queen in her adopted home of Suderen, she had once again found stability and a place she could call home once again which she deeply valued and sought to safeguard and protect. In her time as the Queen, she would note to being incredibly open with her Subjects, often mingling and conversing amongst them as she journeyed in Progress across the Kingdom, her genuine and hands-on approach in her style of Rule alongside her Husband touched the hearts of her People. A Notable Crisis, she and Anerias would face head-on would be the Numetrean Plot, a plot which the Numetreans hatched Intending to coup the Newly founded Kingdom of Suderen and to restore Escharian Rule back into the region, the conspiracy would quickly be discovered with all of its Co-conspirators including any links being arrested and apprehended, in the Waves of arrests that followed, a trial would be conducted at Vollressal, in which after pleading guilty, they would once again pledge their loyalty to the Crown, in which they would be pardoned and recognised as a Noble Family amongst the Suderen Nobility, further they would be tasked with the design and construction of Vollressal Castle.

Empress of Escharia
The Sudden Political Changes in realities that swept over the Land weighed a lot in her Mind, with her having barely enough time to properly process these changes, with her predicament being best described as being dragged through all of these changes in swift Succession. Even still she kept most of these private feelings to herself, recognising Anerias tireless efforts in spearheading this Nation to new heights at the centre of the Cut-throat Politics of Nieden, she resolved to work alongside him, to alleviate his workload being his constant Companion, the rock he can lean and rely on. As the Dawn of the new month arrived new developments in the World of Eldham would transpire, the Uraki Imperium, whom the Escharian Empire had knelt to for their protection in their desperate plight from a Southern Coalition was on a death spiral to total collapse. The Escharii People to the North of Suderen led by its Duke felt unheard by their Central Government of what remained of the Soleannen Empire of Escharia, would be reached out by Anerias and Nive Pallas where after negotiations the idea of merging the Escharian Heartlands under Anerias would be put forward and later put into effect overnight Xarahh Lozharo would become Empress of Escharia. In the proceeding weeks after she would completely devote herself to the People as she had done from her earlier days as the Duchess, leading the Empire alongside Anerias into a Golden Age of flourishing in art, culture and music, with plentiful festivals and celebrations of many, Xarahh would be best remembered for her activism in Championing the improvement of her Subject's lives, advocating and introducing alongside Anerias new industries in farming and craftsman into the Nation, revitalising the Nation with their Arms and Weapons industry booming in great leaps and bounds, She would lastly be noted for her charity work and being a consistent patron towards the Soleannen Church making a large number of donations to the Sylene Cathedral at Drakhasrei, her devotion to the faith would be etched into carefully crafted Iconography with her as the embodiment of Sylene with her husband Anerias as the Embodiment of Solaris. A noted detail that often goes overlooked in her time as the Empress would be how she was the Constant Listener and mediator of disputes for much of the Government functions in decision making observing and taking in all the words of the councillors at the Royal Court, however as time progressed her husband Anerias would become more lethargic in-between short periods where he would become incapacitated and unable to effectively rule despite the great worry and concern of his health, Xarahh with her husband incapacitated would step in with the support of Nive Pallas in carrying out the continued smooth daily running of governance and state affairs of the realm effectively forming a regency. After a prolonged period of Anerias’ continued poor health being unable to fulfil his duties as the Emperor, and with increased looming threats to the wings specifically from the resurgent Kartek Empire, they had to act soon, A council meeting would be called with Xarahh, and Nive Pallas in attendance with the councillors, the dreaded topic of the making Anerias step down from his position would be brought up, as a debate began to wage on between the council, with Xarahh remaining silent as she ponders this turn of events she herself was greatly distraught, she had watched as her love Anerias deteriorated and declined in health over the months, though she outwardly took to the care of both him and the realm they both share, deep down she felt as though she was walking an aimless path, as she listens in and out the of the council debate, Nive in an attempt to break the Deadlock would propose for Xarahh herself to take full reins and become Empress in her own right, to which she promptly shut down and declined, with her in the end at last supporting the motion of a permanent regency led by Nive and his Councillors, with Anerias stepping down and dropping out of politics she soon followed him leaving the political world behind as the Empire they both built and raised fell to the hands of the Soleannan Imperium by the initiation of Nive Pallas-Akerian.

Dragon Empress
In the Period of the Soleannan Imperium, she would become increasingly isolated although having a place in the Imperial Council, she was never keen on the formation of the Imperium, with each day that passed, she would bear witness to the rewriting of history, and the blackening of her Husband’s very name, appalled and disgusted in all parts of her very being, the home she had adopted lost its meaning and growing ever tired of the new government and its actions, she would leave her post in a rage of fury retreating to the City of Vollressal, the place of her fondest memories with her departed love where she remained in quiet tranquillity raising her Son Lazánia Agóri Lozharo-Magistri, and slowly building up the Castle in the City until she would be forced out during the instability caused by Yazov's abdication and the incidents that followed. Despite hitting rock bottom, her Family in Llozhar gathered around her side to comfort and defend her, bringing her back to her first home where she would soon be raised as its Zhahmira amongst her subjects, where she would rule ably into her twilight years, seeing off threats throughout her tenure, repelling invaders from all fronts, with her reign coming to a close with the formation of the Thalozar Diarchy stepping down in favour of her Nephew Joryth.

Marriage
Upon being introduced to Anerias Magistri, and quickly becoming lovers, the two would become engaged not too long after with her becoming the Duchess of Suderen in consequence one of the many Duchies in the Soleannen Empire of Escharia. She would bear witness to a number of events and the political turmoil of the Second Interregnum also known as the Kimiwekessie, where she would acquire and bear the titular titles of 'Queen of Suderen' & 'Empress of Escharia' for a Time. Later in life long past their Rule over the Empire of Escharia they would move and settle at the Llozharii Capital of Farrenore where they would, at last, marry (10/06/2022) to the tune that had encapsulated their relationship from the Beginning to the End.

Conflicts
In her long years of life, she would be present in a number of conflicts, raids and exchanges that transpired. Being present during the botched Arxellan incursions into Vraelea and witnessing the disaster that unfolded through her involvement being minuscule, the same can be said for the Unnoteworthy Simulami Civil War where she accompanied an ill-fated Arxellan Expeditionary force to support the deposed Cadexii. Xarahh, however, was placed out of action from an ill-placed bandit and was brought back to Farrenore to recover when his cause was lost and finalised. Later into her years as the Consort of Anerias Magistri in his meteoric rise and downfall in his political career in the Continent of Nieden. She would play a key role as a supporter and constant listener being 'Anerias' rock of stability to lean on throughout whenever disaster and strategic blunders will go awry. One of which was the Turrian Affair where squatters sent by Bardonia landed and settled into the Duchy of Suderen at its heart without informing Anerias, which inevitably caused friction between both Parties which increased when they refused to depart. Having enough of these Turrians, Anerias would dispatch a light force that was accompanied by Xarahh to rid them of these Turrians. However unbeknownst to them, the Turrians employed a Notorious Bandit, Norsk to defend them which he did with great speed and effect, with the Light force sent being swiftly brought down by the Warrior of renown with Xarahh Lozharo despite a valiant effort. She would be no match for them and would be thrown down a steep cliff by the Bandit becoming severely injured in the process losing her original engagement ring gifted from Anerias Magistri, the disaster would eventually boil over with the so-called Turrians fizzling out from Suderen, and served as a visceral example to them that even the most insignificant of foes should never be overlooked or underestimated which with this serving as a constant valuable reminder of such. During the interceding years of the Soleannen Empire of Escharia and its steep collapse, the entire Escharien Homeland would entirety threatened by the resurgent Kartek Horde, seeking revenge and retribution including their Allies in Aldovir along with the South Sea Pact against Escharia, the alarm would be raised with Anerias and Xarahh would collectively prepare for the eventuality of war. With Suderen and its People being worked around the clock from constant supplies being stockpiled and the forging of weapons and Armour to contribute to the armoury, however, it would prove unneeded with Anerias electing to instead secede alongside Tymarat from the Soleannen Empire of Escharia in further Stroke of Political manoeuvring he aligned himself with the Second Empire of Uldarash and the South Sea Pact by extension specifically with Robot Girlyman and the Aurorans with him selling West Tessel to them in exchange for military support. The events that followed that led to the Empire of Escharia its fourth iteration was one of great complexity, from genuine good intentions to backroom deals as well as betrayals on multiple fronts including from within Suderen's own ranks, in this period she would be the constant listener and mediator for all government functions, attempting to find a middle ground for all parties involved, these state of affairs remained the same until this Escharia's unification into the Aesperium Niedea to form the Soleannan Imperium, in this period she would become rather isolated although having a place in the High Council she would leave her post, and retreated to Vollressal, her adopted home seemingly lost its meaning even still she remained slowly building up the Castle in the City until she would be forced out during the instability caused by Yazov's abdication and the incidents that followed. This concluded with her now returning to Llozhar her first home along with Anerias where she would soon be raised up as its Zhahmira where she would rule ably in her golden years, with her combating a number of threats throughout her rooting out a number of pirates and notably rallying her subjects in defence against Caligo Cultists fending them off from the Llozharii Isles and pushing them back out to sea from whence they came with her reign coming to an close with the formation of the Thalozar Diarchy.

Xarahh and Joryth would often write to one another, having a long correspondence with him that dates back to her move to Vollressal.

Magistri Family
Over the years of Xarahh's life, her husband Anerias was the one in the family that tended to adopt many of their kin from Wally, Psycho, Alex, and Luci those being the four children adopted by him, and Xarahh followed through as their adopted mother by wishes of Anerias. Many issues and arguments arose between Alex, Luci and Anerias Magistri while his children were in their detrimental years (18-25). This caused a rocky history in the Magistri House, a quite commonly known trend. For a while, the family feuds calmed after each member of the family departed to their own paths.
