The '''First-Flames''' were the first deities chosen by their siblings in '''[[Yedistren]]''' to lead the unfallen spirits before mortality. As the first to take mortal vessels, they became the '''Elder Sherok''', wielding near-divine power as '''lawgivers, guardians, and enforcers of divine will''' under the command of '''[[Meera Jenlek|The Mother]] and [[Merrik Jenlek|The Father]]'''.
Their leadership established the '''Golden Age''', a time of prosperity for the '''Free Species'''. However, their rule—originally a benevolent dictatorship—became flawed, breeding resentment among the [[High Valorèin]], leading to rebellion, the fall of the [[Sherok Empire]], and their '''self-imposed exile'''. Their most infamous act was the '''Cursing of the High Valorèin''', a deed they would later deeply regret.
After the defeat of [[Malismorai]], the First-Flames purified the [[Valorèin]] and ultimately '''chose to transcend'''. Before their ascension, they performed their final miracle—the '''resurrection of [[Merik Teslek]]''', the Chosen Hero.
