Karbak People

Karber and briefly Sheber.

Sarrayan was the first Hireos ruler of the Karbak people, born around 1600BD. In the terms of the Sarrayun religion which was named after him, he is their Guranda -- their immortal emperor who reincarnates after each death. Sarrayan brought such prosperity that he had to divide his dominion in two, the Kayen people being granted the other half, though these two regions weren't technically considered kingdoms until much later.

After increasing tensions between the Mintar Kingdom and Kayen Priestdom, Bedin Mintarmanu became the first true emperor of the entire region, uniting both halves under a single religion -- Sarrayun. His empire was so prosperous that it was arguably as powerful as the Oolu Empire today, despite the oppression of followers of the Pakorra religion.
