Muylari

Muylari (Erlini: "The Watcher (Of All)") is a man who was cursed with immortality after he and his wife were saved from being eaten by a dark rider, who was quite likely the dark elven warlord Lorgalis the White by implication. He owed his life to his new master. When Muylari's wife passed away, he returned to pay his debt. He was forced to oversee the plundering of silver mines in the Seolfar Strake (Lysierian Hills), far to the north-west near Claedesbrim Bay (Darkstone Bay), near the edge of northern Jaiman. He used sorcery in the form of "forget" and other mind destruction spells to make the locals fail to understand what was happening to them.

Unfortunately, while mining in what was once known as Silver Valley, they awakened a powerful extra-planar entity that was dormant deep underground. The equines of the valley had long been rumored to have kept the thing at bay, but now enslaved, were unable to stop it from breaking free and conquering the valley. They were all cursed with undeath, and Muylari fled, only to suffer for thousands of years.

Behind The Scenes

While the valley was still present in its cursed state when Selias Jodame visited in the early 6000s Second Era, it would become unstable and shifted between time and space until it anchored under the necropolis of Bandur Etrevion a few hundred miles to the south-west. Muylari returned to tell his story. Adventurers witnessed the equines fly up and battle the monstrosity, in spite of their undeath, which resembled a flying serpent with arms and wings. These Terrorite demons frequently served as lieutenants of Ordainers, and were almost identical in appearance to the avatar of Klysus (Luukos). These facts are both relevant to the symbolism of that specific area within The Graveyard.

Terrorites were known for tearing into other realities unexpectedly, knocking out whoever they ensnared with their sleep poison. It would have resembled a massive abyran'ra demon in appearance, but there is no actual relationship between the two, as they are from different epochs of GemStone. The Shadow Valley has a sleep theme in general, whether night mares or sleep-immune night hounds. Muylari was never seen or heard from again.
