Sadath
Our hearts are a burning fire and the shadow has no place within us. We are the flames, the light of all creation.Sadath are spirits from The Reverie that incarnate in Nalea in variant forms of anthropomorphic animals. Most believe that Sadath are frivolous beings who wish little more than to enjoy their life. This is a purposeful illusion. In the moments before their birth, when they see their spirit animal, each Sadath receives their purpose. Since it is rare that any two share a life focus, they tend to go about living their life to to fullest so they will have the best chance to fulfill their heart's desire. Existing in the Reverie as little more than a Will-o'-the-wisp, Sembris, God of Abundance, forged them into living beings filled with all the wishes, wants, and desires common to all the creatures of flesh. As a result, they are a bit of a paradox: they are pure spiritual beings that are more often than not extremely materialistic. It took the Sadath some time to realize that they were in fact one people on account the extreme diversity of forms they take in life. After so much pain and suffering, they resolved to never to allow the variant forms of life to hate one another on account of the pale differences between them. One day, Sembris desired the abundance of spirits in the Reverie to have a life in Nalea and forged the path to incarnation for them to follow between the world. Minori was the first Sadath to come forth from burning forge of abundance. As he arose into existence, he saw the great black rhinoceros, Kenta, and took his form and the two stepped out int the world.
