Personal history
In Zendararcha's childhood, he was very introverted, he was not interested in making friends or participating in ceremonies. Instead he spent his time in the library reading and studying; he was fascinated by foreign cultures and curious to learn about the world. No matter how much his family and teachers tried to get him involved in the Havlic traditions, he was not interested; Havlic traditions simply bored him, he sought new experiences.
As Zɛndararcha's father's nationalistic tendencies grew, so too did his efforts to force Havlic culture upon his son. The more his father pushed, the more he refused. Eventually Zɛndararcha grew to hate Havlic culture and tradition; because of this his father grew to disdain him.
While Emperor Ζɛndaruxos was away on the Conquest (from 170B), he put his closest tribune Hjɔziemis in charge of Havlia; instead of his own son. In the fall of 164B, Zɛndararcha took advantage of his father's absence and ran away from home. He went undercover to the western harbour city of Arcanittas and took a ship to the [realm.name] coast. He changed his name to "Arka" to hide his connection to Zɛndaruxos.
When the Emperor got word of this, Zɛndararcha was banished from the realm and disowned, formally stripped of all titles and inheritance. This did not affect Zɛndararcha much personally, he would never go back to Havlia either way, however this did mean that Havlia was left with no heirs. Forcing Emperor Zɛndaruxos to stop leading his troops and return to the capital to try for an heir.
He spent many years in [realm.name] living a nomadic lifestyle and exploring the various cultures and peoples of the land. He later spent some time in the mountains of Jazeria learning the ways of the Jaki monks. There he leaned the arts of elemental magic and became a student of water. In 137B he took a ship to Kuzuhi in the northeast, lived as a vagrant worker for a few years and finally left Himixia in the summer of 130B. He took a ship southeast to Asderland but as a Havlian he was unwelcomed. forced to leave, he crossed the [lake.name] to Tsedria where he met another traveller, a Yeleni woman by the name of [name]. Together they trekked around Tsedria, visited the Gartheoir mountains, saw the tree of life in Calley before finally settling down in [name] along the [bay.name] Bay. He once again changed his name to Salasi and began to write books based on his journey. All the while living in hiding, never to reveal his true identity, if people found out he were related to the Emperor, he would be killed on the spot.
