Twilight House
From Mizahar Lore
 Twilight Tower Insignia |
The Twilight House is one of the three ancient founding families of Lhavit. During the heavy uneasiness that clouded The Suvan and Alahea Empires, the coastal peoples were separated from their Suvan counterparts because they were living at the very edge of the seas on the western hemisphere of Mizahar. The Twilight Family originated from those named after the merging of the night and day, specifically notable for their expertise in Morphing. They were heads of their people, along with the Dusk and Dawn family, and acted as councilors, choosing the best path for the survival and the prosperity of their people. It was due to the Twilight House - Lhavit's history states - that the survivors of the Valterrian were able to manage to not only locate the current site of Lhavit (the Morphers in of the Twilights transformed into birds and scouted far and wide for a safe haven from the massive environmental damage after Ivak's imprisonment), but were able to guide the remains of their people to the future city's site. For this reason alone, the Twilight House has remained hugely influential in Lhavitian politics and have retained leadership positions within the city.
The Twilight House suffered during the Day of Discord as its leader and the source of the House's reported corruption, Weisur Twilight, was executed. And with that event, Altelo Twilight was able to step forward and assume control of the family leaving Weisur's wife and children as the sole survivors of that particular line of Twilights. Having recovered from Weisur's execution, the Twilight family is thriving once more. Their students in the Twilight Tower have redoubled.
Located on Sartu Peak in the north, the Twilight Tower is part of what was originally the Twilight Estate, and has since been opened to the public; with the exception of the wing that now houses the instructors and family. The Twilight Tower is led by the Svefra Ethaefal Orath, of Syna, and Inartan Tasa, who follows Leth.

Today
The Twilight Tower today have built themselves up from the ashes of their ancient civilization on the Sartu peak. They retained the same position they once had, as advisers to the Council of Towers who overlook the majority of various topics in the city. Besides their knack for morphing, they, as well as the two other families have opened their homes to teach prospective students for a price, and have since built farms on the lower ground to grow food crops for Lhavit. They are an incredibly wealthy family, but are still notorious for their elusive and mysterious ways. Most if not all low-ranking Lhavitian citizens make way when a member of a Twilight family is present, no longer out of fear since Weisur's death, but ouf of respect for all the family does for the city.
It is safe to note that their influence over the people of Lhavit since the city's founding has long since dwindled with the establishment of the Anchorite and the Star Lady, Zintila. Their power now simply revolves around the Council of Towers and their own prowess in the art of Morphing. Notable teachers, the Twilight family has risen from the ashes of the day of Discord stronger than ever. Their current notoriety in Lhavit revolves around their charity work and their outreach towards the citizens of Lhavit due to Altelo Twilight's influence.
