Historical Figures

Yinhwa

Chief of Irna ❝ Think carefully about what mark you wish to leave in the world. History will remember it all. ❞
As elected Chief, they had an impenetrable calmness about them that compelled others to quiet down and pay attention. Born and raised in the mountain tribe, they grew up among expert craftsmen, scholars, and books on nearly every culture that ever existed. The quiet solemnity of the place is seemed to be seeped into Yinhwa's presence. They were in their early-20s when they were elected and in their mid-40s at the time of the conquest. Despite becoming the leader of the empire, for the majority of their life, they never got to see the world outside of their books.
