Wirlomeyan

The term Wirlomeyan (plural wirlomei) refers to shade-like inhabitants who are currently known to haunt the citadel of Utumno.

Overview
The wirlomei are a native people group from Rathnir. Notable for their well-like underground structures from which small citadels sprout, as well as their shadow magic. This magic is mostly used to migrate long distances in a short amount of time, communicate with one another, and to apparently conceal their identities by covering their entire bodies in an armor-like veil.

Most wirlomei are not born within the citadels they reside for the rest of their lives, as they migrate from their birthplace into already existing ones after being allegedly "called" by them; there seems to be are a few selection of fortresses wirlomei migrate to across the world, two of which are currently known about, Ninansuyo (which lays in ruins), and Utumno.

Even tough all existing wirlomei are mostly capable to communicate with the people of Escharia and most other nations nowadays, they possess a barely functional spoken language called utumnen by the escharien. Although this language is barely used amongst wirlomei, preferring shadow communication, it's widely used as an administrative language by the ruling class to keep record of any treaties forged with other nations.

History
Little is known about the early history of the wirlomei people as it's uncommon for them to form societies.
