Empress Sujira is one of the most enigmatic and divisive figures in the long history of Anarkand. To her disciples, she is not merely a ruler, but a divine figure — the chosen wife of the Creator, Emperor Radamik himself. Whether this claim has any foundation in truth has long since been lost, buried beneath centuries of myth, distortion, and fanatical devotion. Yet her disciples, numbering in the tens of thousands across the realms, speak her name with a reverence that borders on obsession, calling her the Eternal Bride and the Flame of Radamik.



Though Sujira has ruled for centuries, her age and nature remain a mystery. Some say she is immortal, sustained by the relics and dark rites preserved on Sujira Island. Others claim she is but a woman draped in legend, continuing a deception first woven by the Disciples of Radamik to give themselves legitimacy. Regardless of the truth, she commands absolute obedience from her followers, who would lay down their lives at a mere gesture. Her dominion over Sujira Island is total, and through her word the disciples have risen once again from the shadows, rebuilding the army that once plunged Anarkand into centuries of war.



Sujira governs not through the trappings of law or diplomacy, but through faith, fear, and power. To live under her rule is to accept her divinity as unquestionable fact. The disciples, acting as her enforcers, maintain strict control over the island and beyond, demanding loyalty to her name and spreading the teachings of Radamik as they interpret them. Within the inner sanctum of her island fortress, it is said that vast archives of stolen tomes, artefacts, and war spoils are kept, many of which are whispered to hold knowledge of forbidden sciences, blood rites, and the true history of Radamik himself.



Her personal presence is described as overwhelming, almost supernatural. Witnesses tell of her eyes glowing faintly in the dark, her voice carrying a weight that bends weaker wills, and her body untouched by time. She is clad not as a monarch of splendour, but as a figure of war and divinity — armour interwoven with symbols of Radamik, blades said to have been quenched in the blood of conquered kings. To her people, she is both mother and destroyer, the axis upon which their faith turns.



For most of Anarkand, Empress Sujira is not a sovereign but a threat. The memory of the Disciples’ cruelty runs deep, especially in the lands of the Marakai, who once rallied the world to destroy them. The idea that Sujira lives still — not merely as a relic of the past but as a growing power — fills many with dread. The resurgence of the disciples has raised fears of another age of slaughter, and of a war that could engulf Anarkand once more.



Yet there are whispers among scholars and sceptics that Sujira may not be who she claims. Perhaps she is a pretender, a female who inherited the legend and now perpetuates it. Or perhaps she is truly bound to Radamik — whether as wife, chosen vessel, or prisoner. Whatever the truth, the fact remains: Sujira Island is off-limits, its seas, skies, and borders guarded by death itself. None who approach survive long enough to uncover the secrets that lie at the heart of her reign.



The disciples of Sujira live lives of ritual and devotion, their every breath tied to her myth and their daily acts bound by rigid codes. At dawn, they gather before shrines carved from black volcanic stone, facing east to “greet Radamik through his bride.” They chant the Litany of Return—a hymn not merely for Sujira’s presence, but for the day she and Radamik will reunite and reforge the world under their dominion. Meals are communal and preceded by offerings: bowls of salt, drops of blood, or shards of bone, each symbolising the surrender of one’s essence to Sujira’s will.



Every month, the disciples perform the Procession of Blades, a ritual where warriors march in silence, their swords drawn but pointed downward, through the central roads of Sujira Island. At its climax, a chosen disciple is branded with Sujira’s mark upon their chest, binding their life to her cause until death. For them, sacrifice is not a burden but an honour — a guarantee that their soul will one day sit in the eternal courts of Radamik’s dominion.



Sujira and The Anarkian Brotherhood of Earth


Beyond Anarkand, Sujira’s shadow has stretched farther than her disciples could ever have intended. On Earth, a secretive organisation calling itself the Anarkian Brotherhood venerates her as a living goddess. Members of this brotherhood claim to be descendants of those touched by her disciples in ages long past, when the Disciples of Radamik still scoured alien worlds for converts, slaves, and spoils.



The Brotherhood’s beliefs are steeped in prophecy. They argue that Sujira did not remain confined to her island in exile but transcended worlds, her presence echoing across the stars. To them, her eventual return to Earth is inevitable — not as conqueror, but as redeemer. They build hidden temples where effigies of her likeness are carved into walls, their eyes painted in glowing whites to mirror her divine gaze. Rituals involve fasting, scarification, and the burning of incense that they believe opens a veil between Earth and Anarkand, carrying their prayers directly to her ears.



Some factions within the Brotherhood go further, claiming that the chaos and wars of Earth’s history are proof of Sujira’s subtle influence — a preparation of the world for her reign. They await a day they call The Convergence, when Sujira will step through the veil and re-establish her throne upon Earth itself. For these zealots, the violence of the past and the destruction wrought by the disciples are not horrors, but sacred tests, ensuring that only the faithful remain when she returns.
