Korabatah

By Wendy A. Peabody

Korabatah -- The DeliveranceThe land of Anyat was governed by members of the Council of the Order of the Onyx. They were Tarkha knights, riders of sapient and telepathic horses, the Ei-Avakharah. Partnered for life, horse and rider trained from childhood for nearly a decade at the Academy, before they were sent into the Field to serve as judges and law-enforcers. The Tarkha were shining examples of duty, honor and the protocol of righteousness, given by the Book of Wisdom. This righteousness was maintained by strict self-discipline and self-denial, and by the innate integrity of their mounts. Together, they successfully defended Anyat's citizens from intruders, criminals, and the monstrous Izhnarin. Thus the land enjoyed peace and prosperity for many generations. As a result, the Tarkha enjoyed a high level of power and privilege. There were those who stood out from even these elite, known as the best of the best. One of them was Commander Azren in Vogen. A warrior-poet, a clairvoyant, he was greatly admired, and greatly feared as the Council's Bloody Truncheon, exacting swift and severe punishments on his foes. His horse, Rarikei, also stood out from among his own, by his exceptional size, strength and intelligence, and his onyx-black coat. Ordinary people, even other Tarkha, wondered if this horse and this rider were truly made of flesh and blood. No one had truly been able to stop Azren once his treasonous plans were put into motion. The methods he used to overthrow the Council were not only unprecedented, but unforgivable. And the very game pieces he had deployed to win this game, were about to turn against him. Would there ever be redemption for conqueror and vanquished? An ancient prophecy was about to be fulfilled, and the Great Seer rejoiced that she was alive to witness it.
