Eniawing

General Overview
Eniawings are winged creatures with powerful riis. When they are killed, often times if they spirits are not properly dampened, the birds reincarnate, returning to life stronger and more powerful than before. Eniawings get their names from the prefix "en" denoting death and the suffix "ia" denoting life. In old tongue their name would loosely translate to the wings of death and life. Because of their ability to reincarnate when unhindered, eniawings often live for thousands of years. There are four confirmed types of eniawings. One type exist for each element: fire, water, earth, and air.

In Recent Years
Since the birth of the Tierii in 1966 WE, eniawings have been hunted to near extinction. Many tierii believed consuming the soul of one of the near immortal birds would permanently provide them with a self-sustaining rii. While the eniawings' souls do endow tierii with special properties, the effects have proven to only be temporary. Some powerful eniawing patriarchs and matriarchs do still roam Ilderon freely, but they are seldom found near any civilization.

Frost Talon the Rumored Ice Eniawing
Frost Talon is a fabled icey eniawing rumored to be born after a climatic battle between an ancient air eniawing and water eniawing. The clashing birds killed each other simultaneously and their riis combined to form the first ever and only frost eniawing. The powerful bird is rumored to roam the icey northern reaches of Galken. Many scholar's believe Frost Talon's presence intensifies the cold weather and is the reason the lands are uninhabitable even though ancient Kyic Milserii once lived on the icey tundras. No academic accounts have yet to have been made that confirm the existence of Frost Talon. Professor Calye Estes from the Mapheus University has made it her life's goal to confirm the existence of and study the fabled eniawing.
