Capital: Sahen
Ruler: The Lyris
Religion: Fire magic
Living underground, beneath the mountain ranges of Elhmen and beyond, and emerging only for religious ceremonies, the Sahale are known throughout Jaddayoth as the Fire People. As befits their chosen religion, hara of the tribe habitually dye their hair red, but varying shades to signify their position within the tribe, and their caste. Young harlings, until feybraiha, have hair of a strawberry pink colour which changes to vibrant scarlet once they have come of age. On reaching first level Ulani, the hair becomes crimson whilst hara of Nahir Nuri level have hair that is so deep a colour it is almost purple. Subtle shades within these groups denote abilities, social standing and intelligence.
Sahen, the capital city, is situated next to a vast underground lake. Other settlements on the same level as Sahen include the religious retreat of Pir Lagadre, visited by pilgrims from as far away as Megalithica. Outsiders know little about the lower levels of Eulalee.
The ruler, or Lyris, of the Sahale dwells in the city of Sahen, attended by priest figures known as Lithes.
Typically harish in every respect, their only peculiarity is that,
in spite of living underground, they all have rather dark skin. |
| NOTE: Currently the Wraeththu Companion is current only as of the original
three Wraeththu books (Enchantments, Bewitchments, and Fulfilments).
The Companion does not encompass anything is the new Wraeththu History series
(Wraiths and two additional books), nor does it include changes made to
the original books by Storm as she re-edited them for reprint by Immanion
Press, with new content and appendices, and nor does it include material being
developed for a Wraeththu RPG game. It is hoped that the Companion will expand
over time to include these. All original artwork remains the property of the artist, Ruby.

creator and author of the Wraeththu Chronicles (The Enchantments of Flesh
and Spirit, The Bewitchments of Love and Hate and The Fulfilments

and Pleasure, The Shades of Time and Memory, and The Ghosts of Blood
and Innocence.)
