Shien'tyr is one of a number of valances from which sorcerers are able to summon demons. The shien'tyr (rune) is found on shadowy black runestones and can be drawn by any sorcerer with knowldge of Minor Summoning (725).

Shien'tyr is a shadowy, misty realm, utterly devoid of light. Attempts to bring light to this realm have resulted in the light being extinguished by the darkness almost immediately. In those few seconds of light, researchers have seen a vague, shadowy mist in all directions. Aside from this, very little else is known about this mysterious realm.

Shien'tyr is known to be the host of at least two demon archetypes, the shien, which is further comprised by two distinct types called shadowlings and darklings, and the aishan. Both of these demons seem as if they manifest some form of Shien'tyr's shadowy mist, though this, like so much else about the valence, has not been explained.

Any sort of behaviors, society, or hierarchy amongst these denizens in their natural habitat has never been observed, as they have only been seen in their summoned state in Elanthia.
