| - Creatures on the world of Bur, related to their brother race, the Burun. They were the raw material for the creation of the Sclavus by the Dark Falatacot. by fusing the lives and spirits of the male Falatacot and creatures called the Fiazhatin. They grew hoods that sheltered them from The Sleeping Ones eye. Two sets of arms grew from their bodies and they rose from their bellies to powerful tails. They crafted long sticks into devices meant for poking and killing. They took the sinew of the iallootu and strapped them to the saplings of the alooki. They hollowed the shells of the gantha roa and wore them in plates tied with more sinew. They grew lustful of blood and sought war on all life. The Fiazhat saw the Falatacot as gods. The Falatacot made visits to the world of Bur and influenced the direction of this world on a grand scale. They arrived in the places where the Fiazhat supped on the land and grew strong. They came with promises and dreams that they used to bewitch the Fiazhat and fill their heads with thoughts of their worlds. The Burun however, having access to the memory of their world, by eating the fungus Mucor, knew these promises to be false. The Fiazhat built structures of hardened sand, carved images in the stone and hissed and sang the songs of the false beings. All this crept forward and grew for five thousand cycles.During that time the burning lands scoured the world and drew the swamp homes of the Burun to near nothingness. For the next eight thousand cycles the Burun and the Fiazhat make war and try to force themselves into the swamps. They fail as the Burun develop stronger rites to drive their foes away. But Fiazhat numbers grow and the first clutches rise and follow one another through the mire migrating away from the encroaching Fiazhat threat. The Burun walk across the burning land for the first time and press the Fiazhat back from the swamps. They become as brutal as their brothers sparing none of the slithering Fiazhat that they defeat. Burun turn to eating the flesh of their brothers to consume their souls and purge the defilers of The Sleeping One's way from the world. The Falatacot disappear from the world and the Fiazhat who are left behind fall into a time of fear. They build six grand temples in the locations where their gods have made their presence known. Giant, tentacled eyes are built in the places where the gray-violet tunnels appeared. Knowledge is gathered and placed into these buildings. The Fiazhat begin to fight amongst themselves over the next thousand cycles each vying for control over the temples that have been constructed. In the swamps, the wars between the Burun and the moar intensify. In the end, the war between the Burun and the Fiazhat resulted in an almost complete eradication of the latter and the Burun hold vigil over the temples built in the honor of the Falatacot. After they began their society on Bur and were stricken by the malice of the Burun, the Dark Sisters abandoned the world of Bur. They took with them a supply of the serpent-like creatures and sealed the access to the world. The Dark Sisters were content to leave the world to doom after they had collected their followers.
