Shaylang

Summary

Shaylang is the dark dragon tied to Volan's corruption, the force that mutated the Volanen and the hostile power remembered beyond the gates. ^{*1 *2}

Shaylang is remembered as the enemy that remained after Ayoshen opened the gate above Volan, corrupting the world and the people who stayed behind. He exerts power through temporary gates, warped servants, and the occupation of Ayoshen's former seat of power. ^{*1 *3 *4 *2 *5 *6}

Relations

Shaylang stands in direct opposition to Ayoshen and the older Keor'drin legacy on Volan. Volanen memory ties his arrival to the break between Volan's earlier age of sanctuary and the long exile that followed, while Ayoshen's surviving fragments describe him as the force that turned one of his own creations against him. ^{*1 *3 *2 *5 *7}
