The Court of Rulfisethiem

The Court of Rulfisethiem is a strange collection of mysterious characters that arrived on Alathra one day. They consist of several people and groups who work under them. From all known information they all come from another dimension called Rulfisethiem.

Known information
J, also know as 'The Lady of Darkness' to the Lurkers, is a mysterious character who first showed herself to Syzmo in a dream. She would later return to Syzmo in his dreams when fighting Ra'thra and helped him by sending a monster to beat up Ra'thra. She would return again during a meeting between leaders of towns but this time she was in physical form instead of a dream form.

J is often also referred to as 'The Queen of Rulfisethiem' but this is yet to be confirmed, though she does have some sort of command over the 'Lurkers'.

She has shown to have abilities such as Runic magic and Dream manipulation though nothing much else is known.
