THE AKACHI EMPIRE
​
The Akachi Clan, the Tribe of Water, are direct descendants of Olókun, god of the oceans. Descendants of the tribe possess varying abilities to protect Earth’s vast waters and all life that dwell within them.
In 352 B.C., “Maliki” Akachi, scorned by his violent and erratic father, Lutalo Akachi, narrowly escaped the Kingdom of Tayan and an imminent death at his father’s hands. Maliki led three hundred men and their families by stolen ships and sought refuge north. They settled in a remote seaside village that enjoyed fertile land and mild weather along the southwest shores of Iberia.
The coastal village, surrounded by various small islands along southern Iberia, proved aproductive fit for Maliki and his followers. The clan’s technical, medicinal, and seafaring knowledge proved an asset to the humble seaside Celtiberians. Led under Akachi’s rule, the Kingdom of Karacen flourished, evolving into an impressive empire that conquered invaders—potential and overt—alike. Karacen’s progressive ideals and riches from southern assets built the “Kingdom of Immigrants.” Their tolerance for varied ethnic, cultural, and religious backgrounds became their strength.

Mlezi - Order of the Divine
Soon after the third shift after the enlightenment of man, select groups of men, assigned by the Divine, were chosen to protect the descendants of Olókun. Originated in Southeast Alkebulan in 20,062 B.C., the Mlezi Guard were born and culminated under the direction of the Great Shaman, prophet of Realm One. As millennia passed, mlezi embarked upon a coastal migration that led them on coastal waters along the farthest edge of Western Alkebulan. The vast majority of mlezi are descendant of Olókun, the god of water. Mlezi serve, in collaboration with the Twelve Prophets, under the sacred command of the Divine.
