'''Istmaeon Illistim''' was the [[Argent Mirror]] who ruled at the end of the [[Kiramon]] War. The war was a thousand years old at the time, having begun only a couple of millennia after the [[Undead War]], ultimately leading the Illistim to resort to drastic measures. They were vanquished using a spell that banished their enemy, tricking the kiramon into traveling through a portal to what was thought to be an uninhabited world. Whether this was truly developed by Illistimi scholars, or some forbidden lore of antiquity, it was necessary for Istmaeon to authorize its use.

Though he called their triumph a "heroic act" in public, he felt there would be greater consequences. It would later be discovered that the portal had been to the world of [[Bre'Naere]], which was inhabited by the people who would be enslaved and transformed into the [[Aelotoi]]. The guilt of this collateral damage was a major factor in the way they were received in the [[Elven Nations]] in 5,103 Modern Era.
