Biography

Rebellion and refuge for the Nightshade Clan

Karath rejects the Rajah Clan's claim that it treated his people well, declaring that the Nightshades had endured slavery for years. Bound, beaten, and left badly injured for planning to submit to William, he refuses to abandon his clan and trusts his new master to come. William heals Karath and enables the Nightshades' migration into the Thousand Beast Domain. Karath then flies beside him with a conviction to remain loyal, and later describes the clan's new home as a paradise compared with the hardship they expected. (Chapters 993–996, 999, and 1101)
