Other Background Info:

Archipelago: Gryuac, "Times of prosperity", interchangeable with "It will be our end"
Island: Llilya
- The western most island in the Gryuac archipelago.
- Llilya is home to the Lavos family, a merchant family that has found much prestige despite it’s Dirty lineage.
- The island borders on Q’naldinar (Golden Center under the sky / The Hub of all revenge); the primary capitol of the ven.

(Mechanics: Llilya is known to be controled by the Lavos merchant family. As a result, character’s who inhabit Llilya gain the ‘Friend of the Merchant’ aspect for free. This is a public aspect.)

Suhajka lives in the lands of Countess Dara Ashken, Blooded of the Falcon.

Countess Dara Ashken, Blooded of the Falcon -
- She is a direct descendant of the suaven Ecc Jalan.
- Her lands are riddled with Ruins.
- Ven scholars have been known to pay her to get to explore said Ruins.

Suhajka has been serving Countess Dara Ashken in many ways, one of which is the traditional upkeep of Shrines and Temples in her Domain, another is to spread the influence of her favored Suaven, her ancestor Ecc Jalan, and yet another is the help he provides in guiding others through the Ruins of the Sorcerer Kings that riddle her lands.

Contact Background: Lady Vanya Steele, Seneschal of Tryran Dur, Vassal to Baron Alexai Yvarai.
Suhajka Jalan met Vanya Steele while exploring Ruins said to hold a Relic of Ecc Jalan.
After being stuck for a week in a cryptic and apparently endless maze, Suhajka Jalan finds a section of a ruined wall that looks freshly dismantled. Underneath it, he finds a daring and clever ven named Vanya Steele. Suhajka helps her out from under the debris and cares for her, sharing what little rations he has left, not knowing that she holds the key to his freedom!
The Cunning Vanya Steele finds her way through the maze soon thereafter and Suhajka thanks the Suaven to send him such a benevolent guide, however reluctant Vanya is to accept Suhajka's help.
After several days of careful exploration and mutual assistance, they form a certain bond.
Suhajka allows Vanya Steele respite in the Shrines and Temples he oversees, while Vanya allows him free passage in her Domain.
Recently, Suhajka has discovered Ruins in Vanya's Province.
