Andamab Malid was born in year 229 of the First Era, in the city of Musladad, in the southern lands of Sarasad.

Son of merchants, in those days, the Asgranes civilization was prosperous, and peace reigned in the world of Asgaralad.

But the year 234 came, and Durcarad the War Minion appeared as a sandstorm in the great desert of Darasad, and at first nobody managed to notice of him, because his skill with stealth was such that when they found the dead, he was already vanished.

The great Alimad Muyam of Damasad sought him, but he ended up dead along with his Kinship of Explorers.

Her son, Alimad II Muyam, survived the attack and adopted defense as a strategy, with no offensive, at least for that time.

Four years later, the encounters with the Lieutenant were more terrible, and Andamab's father himself was killed.

While the war was beginning in Asgaralad, Andamab aspirated to become a sage and learn as much as he could.

From the year 250, he was preaching his ideas of good among the peoples, and this is how he got many followers.

It was in this year when he ordered the construction of the first Temple of the Sun of Asgaralad, called Soladem in the Asgra Language.

This construction symbolizes the home of the Wisdom of Pirenhad, and is the main building of the cult of wisdom, and is always full of ancient books.

Even the military came to the Temple of the Sun to ask for advice for the war. One of them was Nascara Absad, born in the city of Siridad, in the southwest.

Andamab and she fell in love, but the ravages of war would break these ties, because when Nascara heard of the fall of her city at the hands of the Lieutenant, she was so quick to depart to help that she did not even say goodbye to Andamab.

But this was not known until a year later, when they found several of Nascara's belongings and everyone thought she was dead.

Andamab mourned the loss, but as her body couldn't be found, he hoped that she was still alive somewhere.

The Corrupts advanced from Siridad to Fridad, and there Alimad II and his army held them for months.

Meanwhile, Andamab continued his studies, and remembered an ancient legend of the Asgranes.

A majestic tree is said to be found somewhere in the world, and with the current knowledge, no one knew where it was.

The Asgranes of Sarasad thought that the entire territory to the north of this land was desert, so the idea of ​​the tree being there was discarded.

So Andamab thought about looking for it in the sea, hoping to find some island.

In the year 253 he left the Harbor of Musladad with some companions heading for the unknown.

After several weeks of sailing without destination, they saw land and landed on the island that they gave the name of Darmidad.

And there, after much walking, they found the great tree, the Replica, called Penadad.

There they spent a long time studying the tree, and Andamab's companions longed for their home, and so Andamab let them leave without him, since he preferred to stay on the island, alone, since it hurt to return to the mainland and think in Nascara.

With the passage of time and his many reflections, Andamab changed his mind.

He gnawed at the thought that perhaps Nascara was still alive somewhere, and it was his duty to find her at any cost.

Thus, by the year 254, he built a small raft as best he could and set sail back to the mainland.

When he arrived at the Harbor of Musladad, he saw the smoke rising from his beloved city.

The flames ravaged the landscape, and then he realized that Durcarad had razed the land of Sarasad in his absence.

There he stood, paralyzed with horror, and he had no time to react when a group of Corrupts approached him from behind and one of them cut his throat.

Andamab fell and did not die instantly, but in his last moments, amid the mockeries of the Corrupts, he saw the face of Nascara in his mind, and begged the Creator to keep her alive.

Musladad fell, and the Soladem was left in ruins, but its knowledge was not lost, and the studies of Andamab would be of great importance in future times.

The city of Damasad was the only one free from the yoke of Durcarad in the southern lands, and there the knowledge of the Replica remained safe.

Perhaps Andamab died in vain. An avoidable death, since he found it arriving at the worst time.

Nascara may not be dead... but that is something that Andamab never knew, although deep inside, he always had the feeling that she was still alive.
