Thousand Cities:Yedan

Yedan, The Sword

History

Yedan is the ruler of the Gods of the Cerulean Sky. Although he is one of the youngest of the Primal Gods, he quickly rose to power after his exaltation. Yedan rules with his war host, consisting of Gard and Roane, both of whom are his own children.

Yedan is notoriously virile. He has been credited with leaving entire cities of gravid women just through his brief presence. While he has many children, only seven of them have become powerful enough to enter the Cerulean Host. Most of these are the product of his marriage to Klesthes.

Yedan has been married to Klesthes for most of his life, except for a brief period when he put Klesthes aside and married Seyanne. That marriage lasted long enough to produce one child and then ended with Seyanne's infidelity with Yedan's son, Gard. Gard was forgiven, Seyanne put aside, and Klesthes returned to the throne.

Yedan has only been challenged once during his lifetime, by Vanar. Yedan killed Vanar and retained his position as ruler of the Gods. Yedan does not fear ever being challenged successfully.
