Many believe that those Shapers who survived the onslaught of the Dragons only hid on Fiara, but that is not entirely true. Very few of them fled their homes to the Darkwind Mountains on Xu - they would later be known as the Children of the Wind, the Kathai.
The Kathai are people akin to the Humans of Nortander, yet they have their own distinct culture and beliefs. Their headstrong nature has helped them preserve through the many years of hardships, and they always had close ties with the Imperials on Xu, both pledging their lives to seal off the Darkwind and prevent the creatures of the Black Jungle from reaching northwards - but like many things, this alliance faded with time, leaving the Kathai to face the terrors of the jungle alone.
