Drûin I awoke with the first rise of the sun in the north of the Orocarni with his friend Malin and his Queen Vigdis. He led his tribe during the first Age who did not choose a new king until Drûin´s second Awakening. * Drûin II - also called Drûin the young he awoke in S.A. 625 and led his people into the East. He was the second King of Drûin's House. Founder of the Walled Kingdom of Ruuriik, Drûin followed Balli the rash and boldly led his tribe to their new home high in the Red mountains. Druin the Younger wed Bis and was the proud father of two maidens, Gris and Nuris, a rare feat, In return for Bis' hand Druin granted his aged father-in-law King Malin, a fief covering the northern half of the Kingdom of Ruuriik.
