Role

Chapter 22

1) With the Lich detroyed Azhelak has removed the mask that covered his face, the most afflicted part of
of his body. This is to symbolize the death of the shame that was associated with the curse. It is also
to note his level of comfort with those who he considers family.

2) With the Lich turned the ash Azhelak will devote the rest of his days to further strengthening the
Wardens and bringing forth the Renewal. He feels the best means to accomplish this is by breaking the
Reaver's branch and creating even stronger ties with the Fortress. He believes that a united front of
the Light is unstoppable.

3) His love for Andira grows beyond what he even felt was possible. With the Lich gone, and his bloodline
restored he hopes to forge a great future with her. At this point life without her seems impossible to
Azhelak, and he intends to make the most of the time they have together.

4) Azhelak continues to dabble in Imperial politics. Attempting to create dissent where there is none.
Though Duraskandr (who Azhelak takes credit for ascending to the throne) is becoming wise to these games
he currently works toward bringing Kraldinor (the last of the council at this time) to an early demise
as he realizes that he is a threat to bringing strength back to the Empire. Azhelak aims to turn the
Emperor against him while recognizing this will be far more difficult than it was with a similar plan
involving Gruna as the Emperor frequently ignores Azhelak now.

5) Furthermore Azhelak has been scouting key bastions of civilization that finds to be particularily
insulting to the natural order. He aims to begin mobilizing the Harbingers and the Wardens to attacks
these institutions, the most pressing being the whorehouse in Hamsah mu'Tazz.

6) For the first time in Azhelak's life, he is truly happy. Though perhaps more importantly he can
properly enjoy it. His spirits are lifted and his general demeanor is greatly improved. Additionally he
is reenergized and aims to spread the word of the Spearmaiden and further strengthen what he calls
the New Dawn.
