Heren-Akhlan Soorvyid the Eighth

Heren Soorvyid, eighth of his name, is unfortunately best known around Yjaal as the only king ever to die from suicide.

Death:
While most believe the overwhelming evidence implicating suicide, many conjecturers still vehemently argue that the king was thrown, rather than jumped, from the edge of Tyrsea Promontory. General consensus among such believers is that it was an elaborate plot undertaken by the Ravens - an indigenous woodland race - with whom Heren had repeatedly fought and quarrelled with. After his death, which finalised the end of the second aeo, Heren was replaced by King Tement fol Xanifaar, who was known to be much more sympathetic to the Ravens concerns. It is believed (by the conspiracy theorists) that the Ravens had a huge underlying influence over both Heren's death, and Tement's coronation, due to their heavy connections to The Temple and what they gained as a result.
