Editing Character:Thelaos (section)

===Mentor 2===
Niasios came as close as anyone ever had to uniting the Hundred Kingdoms five hundred years ago, successfully heading a coalition of leaders bent on conquering the region.  His intentions began with the greater good, but degraded into entitlement and hubris as he made concessions to other kings and warlike spirits in order to secure one victory after another.  He was exalted by the Unconquered Son at the height of his power, sealing his fate.  He was able to wage three more decisive and spectacularly bloody battles as one of the "forsaken," but the Wyld Hunt joined his enemies during the last of them.  Niasios was destroyed and his allies crushed.
<br />His ghost lingered.  His descendants and his entire kingdom had been branded with his stigma, and his legacy in the end was only arrogance and death.  He was not worshipped like his own anscestors had been - he was seen as a demon and a black mark on his family's history.  His family and his people mostly recovered from the damage he had done within a few generations, but no one ever truly forgot.
<br />Hundreds of years later, when Thelaos was near death and humbled by defeat, Niasios came to him to offer the guidance that none of his descendants would accept in the past.
