'''Dilaf''' is the [[Shu Dereth#Chain_to_Jaddeth|gragdet]] of the [[Shu Dereth#Monasteries|Dakhor]] monastery leading up to the [[invasion of Arelon]].
Very little is known about Seala, Dilaf's wife. Dilaf is unhinged by the time he reveals most of it, so what is known, is suspect. Dilaf was over fifty when they met, and no one was as surprised as he was when he fell in love. He was left even more surprised when she returned his love, despite his physical 'deformity' of looking like an Arelene.
 
Seala eventually became sick, but the art of Dakhor cannot heal. In desperation, Dilaf turned to the Elantrians to heal Seala. Unfortunately, the glyph[[Aon]] that should have healed her instead performed a partial transformation, not unlike the [[Reod]], leaving her in pain and unable to die. Dilaf, however, believed that this tragic accident was a malicious attack, and began nursing a hatred that would ultimately drive him insane.{{book ref|elantris|60}} He retreated to the outlying city of [[Naen]], and began his infiltration in earnest, taking the role of an Arelene who had converted to Shu Dereth.{{book ref|elantris|3}}
