Aimia es un grupo de islas en Roshar que está separado del continente principal por el mar de Aimia.[1] Aimia es también el nombre de la mayor de las islas del archipiélago.[2] Estas islas formaban uno de los Reinos Plateados de Roshar que sobrevivieron a las Desolaciones.[3] El Reino de Aimia existió durante al menos una parte, si no su totalidad, de la Era de la Soledad,pero en algún punto fue aniquilado en la destrucción de Aimia.[4][5]

Geografía

por Isaac Stewart
Mapa de Aimia

Aimia es un archipiélago que consta de una gran isla y varias más pequeñas situadas al oeste de la costa de Shinovar. Está rodeada al este por el mar de Aimia y al oeste por el Océano sin Fin.[1] Las altas tormentas alcanzan el archipiélago.[6]

Una de las islas pequeñas al norte se llama Akinah.[7] Esta contiene cavernas submarinas, y es posible que otras las contengan también.[8][9] Está bien protegida de los forasteros, ya que hubo una Esquirla del Amanecer en la isla hasta que Rysn se convirtió en ella y se fue.[10][11]

Cultura

Personas

Un buen número de humanos residieron en Aimia en el pasado. Sin embargo, parece que tras la destrucción murieron o huyeron, algunos de ellos a Alm. Estos se recortaban la barba del mismo modo que aquellos que vivían en Steen. Poco más se sabe sobre ellos.[12]

Razas de Aimia

Para más información, ver Insomne.
Para más información, ver Siah aimiano.

Además de los humanos aimianos, existen otras dos razas de aimianos: los Dysian aimianos (o Insomnes)[13] y los Siah aimianos.[14] Ambos son seres conscientes no humanos.[15]. Aunque no están emparentados,[16] los dos poseen numerosas características inusuales, incluida una forma de inmortalidad[17][18] y la habilidad de modificar sus cuerpos mágicamente.[19][18] Los humanos son capaces de reproducirse con los Siah aimianos[20] pero no con los Dysian.[21] A pesar de que los aimianos no tienen ascendencia humana ni cantora, fueron creados por el mismo ser, presumiblemente Adonalsium.[22][23] Esto implica que, al igual que los humanos y los cantores, los aimianos existían antes de la Fragmentación. Sin embargo, se desconoce si alguna de las dos razas es nativa de Roshar.[24]

La relación entre ambas razas es desconocida, pero coexistieron en las islas durante miles de años. El Insomne Arclo se refiere al Siah Axies el Coleccionista de forma familiar.[18]

Fauna

Aimia was a desolate and barren place, too cold for anything to grow. In order to become habitiable, some sort of device or devices, likely fabrials, were employed during the Heraldic Epochs to change its climate.[12]

Many of the animals native to Aimia differ from other animals on Roshar. Unlike Shin animals, Aimian animals fit into the ecosystem of Roshar but have exceptional features that make them distinct, including the lancer, known for their large gemhearts,[4] and larkin, known for ingesting Investiture such as Stormlight.[25] Lanceryn and larkin are directly related in some way.[26][11] Aimian animals are now exceptionally rare and modern Rosharans incorrectly believe that larkin are extinct.[4][27] The few larkin remaining appear to have been taken in by the Na-Alind, and Rysn was given one of these in the Reshi Isles.[28][29]

At least one ancient text alludes to delicacies that come from Aimia,[30] possibly from endemic plants or animals.

Historia

Arrival of the Dawnshard

At some unknown point in the distant past, a Dawnshard was taken or came to Aimia and was trapped in the Akinah Dawnshard mural.[11] This Dawnshard was protected by the lanceryn.[11]

Silver Kingdom

Aimia was one of the Silver Kingdoms during the Heraldic Epochs. It contained an Oathgate connecting it to Urithiru.[5][31] As one of the ten kingdoms and a holder of an Oathgate, it likely held one of the ten thrones in Urithiru.[32] Akinah was the capital of the kingdom, and it was once a grand city built on a natural rock formation with tenfold symmetry.[33][7] It was also known as the location to obtain Soulcasters.[7] Siah Aimians were integrated into larger Rosharan society to the point that they are partial ancestors of some ethnic groups on the main continent.[20] At least some of the Aimians were close allies of the Knights Radiant.[12]

Scouring of Aimia

Para más información, ver Scouring of Aimia.

At some point, a scouring occurred at Aimia, however, what exactly occurred, and why, is unknown. While the exact time is uncertain, it occurred after the Recreance[4][12] but longer than four hundred years before the Everstorm's arrival.[36] Axies the Collector recalls it being fairly recent,[14] while Nikli recounts it as being many generations ago.[12] Nikli believes that Aimia's fall was due to its extreme riches being too tempting to the rest of the world.[12]

“They assumed their secrets would protect them, but then their allies fell. And secrets can't hold swords.”

—Nikli to Rysn on the Scouring

The fabrials or other devices regulating Aimia's climate were destroyed, leaving the islands desolate and barren.[12] The scouring decimated life on the islands. Native animals nearly went extinct,[27] and members of both of the immortal races are now rare.[14] The surviving humans fled to other nations.[12] The last few larkin were taken in by their cousins, the Na-Alind.[29] The Oathgate in Akinah fell into disuse, isolating the islands.[5][31]

With the fall of the lanceryn and dispersal of the larkin, the Dawnshard was left unprotected. The Sleepless residing there decided to take up the role of its guardians because they did not want the power to fall into the wrong hands, as it was capable of destroying billions of people.[37]

The Aimian Sea near the islands became very dangerous, with strange winds and storms that seem to originate in the islands.[7] In particular, one constant storm surrounds the island of Akinah.[7][38][39] Akinah is now surrounded by a wall of Soulcast stone spikes that are forty feet tall, with additional spikes underwater to deter ships.[7] Kaza believes that the spikes must have been created by multiple Soulcasters working together.[7]

Hessi theorized that an Unmade, possibly Dai-Gonarthis, caused the destruction of Aimia.[40]

Modern Day

Enough time has passed since the scouring that myths and stories about the Aimian islands and their people have spread.[14] Akinah has many nicknames including "The Rock of Secrets" and "The Void's Playground", and Rosharans speculate about what it contains.[7] Some individual Aimians survive, and at least some are still on the islands.[41] Other cultures on Roshar are aware that non-human Aimians still exist, but generally have negative reactions to them if discovered.[27] Legends also speak of creatures that can eat Stormlight[39] and creatures that are living heaps of cremlings,[12] although the latter legend has lost its association with Aimia and its immortals.

The Sleepless have been very dedicated to protecting the Dawnshard in the time since the scouring. They have killed anyone who gets near to discovering their secrets, with a total death toll numbering in the hundreds.[37] They even built a fake version of the city of Akinah, following the same cymatic pattern as the original, in order to build a ruined Oathgate replica, in hopes of dissuading anyone who manages to get that far from returning. The real Oathgate remains functional, albeit locked, underneath the replica.[42]

Very recently, perhaps coinciding with the arrival of the Everstorm, the protective storm around Akinah has weakened somewhat.[37] As a result of this, the ship First Dreams was able to approach Akinah, but the crew was poisoned by one of the Sleepless, who was actively preventing humans from reaching the island.[7] The Sleepless said that it was protecting a secret that could lead to the "end of worlds".[7] Kaza made it to shore and saw a larkin, or perhaps a hordeling with the appearance of a larkin, and the faked ruins of Akinah before dying.[7]

Recently, scouting parties have been sent to the main island and found it quite barren. The Royal Navy of Thaylenah has set up outposts there just in case.[29][39][2]

Expedición a Akinah

Para más información, ver Expedición a Akinah.

In late 1174, Rysn Ftori headed an expedition to Akinah which brought back eight Soulcasters and a set of Shardplate. Rysn became the Dawnshard and the Sleepless guarding it let her return, conceding that Akinah was growing too hard to protect.[11] [expandir]
