Following the Reod, Ahan rose to prominence in Iadon's income-based meritocracy, gaining the title of count. Where his fortune fell within the Arelon system is unknown, but was no higher than fourth.[5] He shared a friendly rivalry with Duke Roial and was constantly trying to either outdo or oppose him. In fact, Ahan joined Raoden's group thinking he was opposing Roial and was shocked to see that Roial was also a member.[1][4] After Raoden was taken by the Shaod, Ahan, along with Roial, Eondel and Shuden, was part of Sarene's opposition to Iadon's rule and resistance to Hrathen's efforts to convert Arelon.[6][7]
