Garte

Garte is the Lord of O'khasis, and father to Garroth and Zane. Garte, once a man who cared for his people, is now a man who only cares for "the pursuit of power", as Garroth put it. This was due to a near death experience.

Garte had a huge influence on Zane, even though Zane was showing horrible traits before his father's NDE. Almost going to war with Scaleswind, Garte had set up a peace treaty. The treaty stated that the first born of the estates were to be married. Horrified at the thought, Garroth ran away. Zane is the most loyal to Garte.

Garte also has the "Jury of Nine" to protect him. The Jury of Nine are guards sworn to protect him. As Jeffrey dies, Garroth takes his place being brainwashed. Garroth is now a Jury of Nine member, and we wait to see what is going to happen to him.
