All else must wait."// ====== Paramedes ====== **Paramedes** is the leader of the [[Shadowless]]. His position as their premier is uncontested, and his orders are, begrudgingly or otherwise, followed. According to a book found within the [[Holdings]], //Paramedes and the Without-Shadow//, he and his cabal seek to destroy [[Ahm]]'s work and end [[Kona]]. ===== History ===== As with much before the [[First Age]], little is known of Paramedes. According to [[Monoeices]] and [[Father Katros]], after the creation of [[Leurut]], Paramedes was left whole, and did not need to recombine his soul with another, unlike the rest of the Shadowless (excepting Menoetes). During the end of the First Age, he fought alongside [[Protophylarch]] to seal the elemental beasts within the [[Vaults of Ahm]], seeming to be a competent and virtuous leader. According to Katros, Paramedes was responsible for triggering the calamity, and is a servant of [[Xanthous]]. His unexpected part in the conflict was allegedly to preserve his beasts and weapons for another attempt at destroying [[Kona]], once it became clear that [[Rozmajin]] would successfully defeat their plans.
