Wyntryn

“Flecks of white patter her hair and face. She doesn’t remember it being this cold on the balcony, but she pushes past the uncomfortable feeling and goes down the front stairs. She hugs her arms around her and starts off towards an opening in the trees. Identical to the path she walked in her dream. She shivers uncontrollably underneath the jacket, her body vibrating. She pushes on, fighting the icy air that consumes her lungs.” — These Shattered Truths

The Wyntryn Bloodline

Kataar was the very first irregular of the bloodline. He fused his blood with that of a winter dragon. The acidity of the blood and severity of the infusion caused him to die, but the changes in his bloodstream brought him back to life.
He was also the founder of the Wyntryn region and the first King to take the throne and become a protector of the people. Although, the blood of the dragon began to change the state of his mind. Over the years he fell into madness, and even tried to kill his own son.
His son Aran in turn had no choice but to kill his father.

She is honored for her many successes in the Great War. Jespei was also the first Wyntryn ruler to begin mining in the western mountains. Those mining expeditions led to the discovery of the first huge cavern hidden beneath the mountains, Metarock. Although she lived a long life of successes, she sent a threat to the King of the Fynger Isles after he hunted within Wyntryn borders. That threat led to her being unceremoniously executed before her 60th birthday.
Jesepi was actually the 9th Wyntryn to take the throne, and the first ruler to serve for more than 20 years.
