History
On Ispar
Very little is known about the history of the Souia-Vey.
One legend speaks of a battle between a king of Milantos and a hero of Souia-Vey. As the legend goes, long ago the Milantan sorcerer-king Karuz had come to the conclusion that the secret of eternal life lay in the blood of the of Souia-Vey. At his direction, Milantan sorcerers had been kidnapping villagers of neighboring Souia-Vey to perform foul rituals upon them. The Souia-Vey were largely helpless until the arrival of the hero Brador. Armed with a sword that seemed to fend off sorcery, Brador alone was able to repel the Milantan incursions. Frustrated by Brador's defense of the Souia-Vey, Karuz decided to end Brador's interference personally, and brought forth his own terrible weapon to do battle with the hero. There was a great clash, which laid waste to the land all around them. Some say the battle lasted for days, others say only an instant. Whatever the outcome, neither Brador nor Karuz were ever seen again.[1][2]
Another possible legend, possible historical event is that of Sir Borlac and the Vessenjhe. Sir Borlac di Lotila, wielding an ancient axe he called Smite, led the knights of the Bull against the Souia-Vey warriors of Vessenjhe. Sir Borlac met the Vessenjhe on the plains of northwest of Gharu'n, and single-handedly slew every last Vessenjhe himself, according to tales.[3]
Mercenaries from Souia-Vey, along with Silvera, were hired by the Viamontians in Aluvia during the reign of Alfrega.[4]
On Dereth
The only known possible Souia-Vey on Dereth is the Apothecary Zongo, traveling companion of Duke Raoul Lascera, and famous for his beer recipes involving Moarsmuck. It is said that Zongo was a witch doctor of Souia-Vey who dabbled in poisons and dangerous distillations. [5]
