Tyndri Silverveil
Overview
According to A History of Rislandia, Tyndri Silverveil was described as a "brilliant healer and administrator" — a noblewoman from the southern provinces of the old empire and a former master within the Tideweavers guild. She was forty years of age at the time of the Great Gathering and stood among the key leaders to emerge at Petra Magna in the years that followed. Her departure from that settlement and the subsequent founding of the Tyndree Kingdom secured her place as one of the most consequential figures of the post-exodus era.
History
Origins and the Great Gathering
According to A History of Rislandia, Tyndri Silverveil came from a noble family in the southern provinces of the Orethan Dominion — the region that would later become the Tyndree Kingdom. Her standing within the Tideweavers guild, where she had attained the rank of master, combined with her gifts as a healer and administrator, made her a natural figure of authority among the survivors who gathered at Petra Magna after the exodus led by Jory Malaky.
Departure from Petra Magna
According to A History of Rislandia, Tyndri Silverveil left Petra Magna in Year 14, a few years after the departure of Wyranth. She longed to return closer to her ancestral homeland in the southern regions of the old empire. Jory Malaky blessed her departure with the words: "Go in peace, and may the Great One guide you." She took approximately 1,500 followers with her, travelling to the southeastern peninsula.
The circumstances and route of this journey are not detailed in A History of Rislandia. The page Tyndri Departure may contain additional information.
Founding of the Tyndree Kingdom
According to A History of Rislandia, Tyndri Silverveil and her followers settled in the southeastern peninsula, where they established what would become the Tyndree Kingdom. By the reign of King Malaky III, her people had established a proper kingdom in the southeast. The kingdom was later conquered by Wyranth; see Conquest of Tyndree and Wyranth-Tyndree War for further detail.
Legacy
Tyndri Silverveil was the founder or progenitor of the Tyndree Kingdom, and the kingdom's name is understood to derive from her own. According to A History of Rislandia, her people had consolidated into a recognised kingdom by the time of King Malaky III's reign, demonstrating the speed and stability of the settlement she led. The Scholars' Guild of Tyndree and the figure of King Aldous III of Tyndree represent later developments within the polity she founded.
