Empress Daz

The Rise of the Dazmund Empire
Empress (Run) Daz (pronounced (Roon) Da-z) is the youngest of the 3 Golden Run's (Empresses) children. She was known for her cunning and battle tactics. When her mother died she was the first to try and take the empire from her older sister Diz while Diz was in mourning. She had succeeded in the war against her sister as her brother Del sought refuge elsewhere and the Golden empire was renamed the Dazmund empire after her. The Dazmund and Dizand empires remained bitter but the Dazmund and Delmand empires stood at an uneasy truce. The tradition of royalty only having one child came from this historic incident for fear that having more than one heir would result in the destruction of their empire.

The Insanity Trait
According to Elajee, the other empires believed that Daz was somewhat insane or atleast unhealthily power hungry, and believed that attribute passed down the generations of Dazmund leaders which might explain Ucije's antics.

Daz's love life and lore
Further lore not directly spoken about her in Hacheeachkee is manifested in murals on the walls of the Dazmund palace and in Elajee's last dialogues about "folklore heroes who could dissolve bars and chains". There was a Dazmund general during the war over the golden empire who was captured and chained up in a prison cell by the Dizand empire. Instead of executing him right away they gave him a highly toxic plant, so toxic its secretions could eat through skin and bone, as a means to eat and commit suicide.

When the general put the plant in his mouth, however, it did not eat away at his flesh, so he salivated on his chains until he was able to break free and escape back to Daz and present her the plant that saved his life. Daz made the Daz plant the official symbol of the Dazmund empire and the general and Daz later married. Other accounts of this general depict him as a fearless warrior who was especially deadly in close range because he would spit the deadly poison into the faces of his foes, killing them in a gradual painful death. Despite his association with Daz, other empires look to his story as a metaphor for freedom and turning the worst of fates into miracles. Unfortunately this general's name was lost to history.
