King Hidellith was the ruler of Alinor in the Second Era. He was the husband of Tuinden, and the father of Ayrenn and Naemon.[1][2][3]
History[edit]
Hidellith was believed to be a direct descendant of the Divines who created Nirn. His rule is remembered as a long and great one, and he exemplified the best traditions of High Elven Ceremoniarchy, basing his every decision on the precedents laid down in the Scrolls of Praxis.[2] In 2E 486, a small Maormeri fleet was sighted off the coast of his kingdom, and King Hidellith ordered his navy to give chase. They followed the fleet to Pyandonea, where all but one of the ships were destroyed.[4]
His child with Kinlady Tuinden was born on the 5th of Second Seed in 2E 555. Following the dictates of the Scrolls of Praxis, they named her Ayrenn, and held celebrations for fifty-five days. He had other children, as well, including his eldest son Prince Naemon. In 2E 573, he gathered with his family at the Crystal Tower to celebrate what was supposed to be Ayrenn's entry for schooling as a ruler, but his daughter disappeared. She would not return until after Hidellith's death in 2E 580.[2]
Some speculated—though with doubt—that the mysterious Gardener of the Garland Ring was, in reality, King Hidellith.[5]
