Kitori

Originally used to describe everybody under the influence of Ezkankekko during the Silver Age, some people (perhaps Praxians) considered it synonymous with the Unity Council. Even the Heortlings were considered Kitori. Later on, the Kitori came to be seen as associated with Kethaela and the Heortlings came to be seen as different. When Arkat came, they had become a distinct people.

Instrumental in this differentiation was Varzor Kitor who taught everybody who would listen what he had learned from Ezkankekko. He taught the prayers that would halt the creatures of the Dark and the secrets of the night and what lay after death.

Ezkankekko made the Kitori his envoys and allowed them to collect the Shadow Tribute. They wore a distinctive garb then, a black hooded furline cloak, a lead mask and a ebon spear. They were known as Shadowlords.

There was division when Varzor Zator tried to make everybody worship Zorak Zoran

They fought alongside Arkat and studied his secrets. After the Tax Slaughter, Ezkankekko dismissed the Kitori from his service. Presumably this means they no longer collected the shadow tribute. Beresrolar negotiated a peace with them at this time.

They killed Orvanlanth after he refused to make the Ten Shadow Sacrifices. Verlant was forced to seek the Pharaoh's protection from the Kitori.

They are next heard off imposing Double Sacrifice on the Volsaxi but are defeated by Tarkalor with the help of the Night Jumpers who gives most of their lands to Monrogh.
