Syrus was one of the most powerful rulers in the Auxiqaira Dynasty. He was on a ship to another kingdom for a proposal when a hurricane struck and the ship crashed. Syrus was thrown overboard and fell into an unconscious state almost as soon as his body had hit the water. Twelve hours passed when syrus awoke. He was on a ship, but it was unfamiliar. As he felt the floorboards below him, he sat up, groaning from the headache.
