Islay al Gahan



= Islay al Gahan =

Islay is a non-binary human currently living in and leading the city Gol'Gahan in the Enkii.

Early Life in Laelewyn
Islay was born in Laelewyn, a small village on The Roaring Isle. Like many people in this village they learned to gather food, hunt, harvest crops from a young age and later helped selling the products of the town in the nearest big city Thyngfald. Islay had a peacefull upbringing and secure life, until the Green Menace swept over the lands. A horde of ents, that destroyed villages and towns, including Laelewyn and killed most of the people, including Islay´s parents. A small number of persons from the town managed to get away by ship. But they only had the oportunity to run and get to the safety of the ocean, because of the knowledge of the wilderness of Islay, who were leading them.

Time in Hewe Kahmang
After a few days on the ocean the Laelewynians lost orientation and sailed into a storm. As their ship sunk, most of them made it luckily to the shores of a small island. There Islay and their companions survived for a few days, when they were found by sailors from Hewe Kahmang, who offered to take them to their city and give them refugee. In Hewe Kahmang Islay could rest and befriended some citizens, from these people they learned a lot about sailing and ship building, while teaching them on how to optimize their farming of crops.

But like the other Laelewynians, Islay didn´t feel at home in this new city. The people were nice, it was safe and beautiful, but there was a sense of the thought "We are just guests." Some time after recovering and building a ship of their own, after Hewe Kahmang standards, Islay and the Laelewynians set sail.

The New Home New Laelewyn
Finally the refugees found a peaceful island located in the Glassinica Delta. This seemed like a safe place, so they built their first houses there and tried to adapt to the desert coast.

It didn´t take long until the natives of the land, the Siva of Kissara, found out, that they had strangers on their shores. But the Laelewynians were not sent away, the Siva welcomed them with open arms and gave them the legal claim to the isle Islay and the other landed on, called Abadi.

Islay declared the new founded town as New Laelewyn.

The oasis on the island was the core of New Laelewyn and one day, when Islay washed themselves, they dived into the water and did not reach the surface again. the leader and founder of the town just vanished.

Vanished
Islay found themselves in a strange place. They didn´t know where they were or when. A realm that had the looks of an endless oasis. It seemed as there was a big desert around it, but as soon they took steps away from the oasis, it was like the oasis followed. Islay also lost their feeling of time, because it was constantly nighttime, with a big full moon in the clear sky and a gentle breeze. There were sounds of unknown creatures coming from the desert and after some time a beast appeared. A giant hound with multiple heads and breathing fire. It did not hesitate to attack. Islay dodged, got hit, fought back. The fight went on for minutes, until both fell into the water of the oasis. Surprisingly the creature was weaker and slower in the water and Islay managed to slay it. When they swam up, to the surface of the water again, they found themselves in New Laelewyn. But something was different.
