Saiyuyaan Gülounsi

Saiyuyaan Gülounsi, officially Kizildhar Saiyuyaan Gülounsi-Dhar, is an Ashkavari Kizildhar (Senior Leader) and Korishqai (Mayor) of Sifedşovan. He founded the city of Sifedşovan after the Kavari Civil War's conclusion, joining the Ashkavari Korqoriat in the process. Saiyuyaan has been regarded by many as an arrogant yet empathetic, calculative yet eccentric at times. It can be very hard to predict what his next move may be.

A Nomad Forged by Tragedy
Saiyuyaan Gülounsi was born into the simple, yet fulfilling life of a Şohrökavari nomad in the quaint Shikorvan (nomadic town) of Jaharişk, located in Qash Şohrölaatıın in the Korqoriat of Kavaria. Following in the footsteps of his father and grandfather, his days were spent tending to the family's livestock across the vast steppes. He developed a deep respect for animals, learning the intricacies of their care and even mastering the skills of butchering and cooking their meat. Little did he know that his skills with the knife would translate smoothly into the sword, immensely helping him during his travels later in life. He eventually met a young, scholarly boy by the name of Horgdul Bardakcı. Even though they had very different personalities and goals, they bonded very quickly, as they were the same age, and built a friendly rivalry over the years. They would compete with each other in everything, from swordsmanship to equestrianship. Contentment defined this period of his life; Saiyuyaan harbored no grand ambitions, his loyalty solely devoted to serving the Kavari Korqoriat and his family.

On the Ruins of Jaharişk
One fateful night, the tranquility of Saiyuyaan's life shattered. As the nomads settled for the evening, the haunting sound of horns echoed across the steppes. A ruthless band of raiders descended upon their Shikorvan of Jaharişk. Before Kavari soldiers could mobilize, the raiders unleashed a torrent of violence, indiscriminately slaughtering livestock, soldiers, the Korishqai (Mayor), women, and children. Saiyuyaan, witnessing the brutal carnage, fought back with a desperate fury. However, his efforts were tragically in vain. He watched in horror as his loved ones were slaughtered with a cruelty that far surpassed the practiced butchering of animals. Overwhelmed by grief and rage, Saiyuyaan was cut down by a raider, collapsing unconscious amidst the carnage.

A Survivor's Resolve
Miraculously, Saiyuyaan awoke to find himself alive amidst the devastation. The brutal reality sank in – he was one of the few spared that horrific night. This harrowing experience left an indelible mark on his soul. He developed a deep disdain for the Kavari leadership, whose failings had allowed such an atrocity to occur. Driven by a burning desire to never again experience such helplessness, Saiyuyaan embarked on a rigorous training regime. He refined and improved his skills, vowing to become strong enough to protect himself and those precious to him.

A Travellers' End
Saiyuyaan's grief eventually morphed into a resolute determination. He decided to become a traveler, venturing beyond the familiar plains of Kavaria. He explored diverse nations, taking on the odd job here and there to broaden his skillset and, most importantly, earn the coin necessary for his journey. During his travelling, he came face-to-face with Horgdul Bardakcı, his childhood friend, who revealed a shocking truth – a raging civil war had thrown Kavari society into turmoil. This news ignited a fire within Saiyuyaan that he didn't know he still had. He wasn't destined to wander aimlessly; his people needed him. Throwing himself back on his horse, not to go on another foreign adventure that he had grown so accustomed to, but back to Kavaria to confront the destiny he had trained for. Horgdul tagged along with him. Finally, the skills he honed, the resilience he cultivated and, most importantly, the vow he made back on Jaharişk would all be put to the test.
