“By your power, I will know the Dark One. And by your power, Destined One, I will slay him. ”
Sir Ysla is a knight from Mirandus who is utterly loyal to the Kingdoms of Light. He is sent to Earth to try kill Paul Tanasin before he can gain the Dark One's power.[1]
Appearance
Sir Ysla is an imposing figure with a large, bushy beard covering a good portion of his face, and a wide nose. He is clad in full armor with a large billowing cape, and carries a one-handed sword.[1]
History
After Illarion announced that he had discovered the newest Dark One, he immediately set Kraisis to work preparing to defeat Paul Tanasin before he fully came into his powers. Kraisis prepared a portal to Earth, and recruited Sir Ysla to be the one to go through to Earth and kill Paul. Sir Ysla was sent through on his horse in full armor, and appeared in the middle of a street in New York. Through Kraisis' use of the Sigil of Seeking, Sir Ysla was able to track Paul to Dr. Marcus' office during Paul's emergency session with the doctor. Here Sir Ysla promptly beheaded Dr. Marcus before Paul managed to escape. Continuing to track Paul down in the street, Sir Ysla went to strike Paul down before Paul uses his Dark One powers to defeat the knight. Paul bound Sir Ysla's soul to the very sword he wielded to kill Paul, imbuing the sword with Sir Ysla's hatred of Paul to form a blade that was very good at killing.[1][2]
Trivia
- In one panel, Sir Ysla is encased in darkness and his beard makes it look like he is some sort of animal, mimicking his beast-like actions and disregard for life in this section of the novel.[1]
