The Deathless, also known as the Deaths of Rhir, are the champions of the Demon King and the leaders of his armies.
Overview[edit | edit source]
The Deathless are the last, greatest weapons of the Demon Kingdom. Considered to be some of the most powerful individuals in the world, they are immortal and return century after century if not slain.[1] There is an expression about the Deathless, saying "when they take the field, armies die,"[2] which speaks to their level of power, and proven correct when a still-wounded Silvenia overran the 5th Wall of the Blighted Kingdom and their forces by herself.[3]
History[edit | edit source]
Originally, there were twelve Deathless. There was eight remaining by the end of the Long Night, the period when magic disappeared,[4] before the Creler Wars and liberation of Stitch-folk.
One Deathless was a member of the Soiretham, and fought against the Blighted Kingdom before the war with the Demon Kingdom.[5]
The Death of Wings Serinpotva once convinced a species of giant spellcasting Silverfish to join the Demon Kingdom. After the Blighted Kingdom destroyed them, Silvenia created the Vorepillar plague in revenge.[4][2]
A century ago, the Deathless fought [Archmages] Zelkyr Amerwing and Peril Chandler along with the armies of several nations. They were able to break the armies sent against the Demons and force the [Archmages] to retreat, while also killing one of Zelkyr's Truestone Golems. However, the Death of Voices and the Death of Dust were killed. The others were grievously wounded, only kept alive thanks to Silvenia's magic.[6]
While it was expected that the Deathless not recover for at least another century,[3] everything changed with the arrival of an Earther named Flora, who had an epinephrine injector in her possession. Silvenia was able to clone the Epipen several times, boosting it to something similar to a panacea. The medication sped up the Death of Magic's healing a millionfold, allowing the former Archmage to divert more mana to her comrades' healing.[7]
Chronology[edit | edit source]
Volume 7[edit | edit source]
The return of the Deathless was heralded by Silvenia, who was able to break 5th Wall and its forces by herself. While she attempted to take 4th Wall, she was discouraged so by Lord Hayvon and his forces and ordered by the Demon King to retreat.[3]
Volume 8[edit | edit source]
Silvenia and Czuatha teleported to Chandrar and destroyed several of Roshal's caravans, freeing [Slaves] and Djinni, before attacking Lailight Scintillation itself.[8] They returned to Rhir via [Grand Teleport], but during mid-transit, they encountered another group using the same spell: Dame Eclizza, Ryoka Griffin, and Sammial Veltras. Silvenia kills Eclizza, but is dissuaded from further action by Czuatha, who sees the chains on Ryoka and Sammial.[9]
All three Deathless gathered in the Demon King's court to meet the Antinium delegation.[10]
Volume 9[edit | edit source]
After the Christmas broadcast, Serinpotva, the Death of Wings, revealed her recovery to the world. Silvenia continued to assault the Blighted Kingdom, assassinating a few [Heroes], unleashing Crelers, and attacking their fleet to the New Lands of Izril. She also teleported a colony of Demons to the New Lands.
