shalma urhi

Queen Nakia's personal attendant and accomplice in her schemes to usurp the throne, Urhi operates under the guise of a royal priest while carrying out her plans. His loyalty to the queen is unwavering due to a deep bond they share, ensuring he would never betray her.

Urhi suffers the loss of an eye when Rusafa shoots him with an arrow. Following this injury, he wears an ornate eyepatch. Unable to appear in public any longer, he becomes a scapegoat to shield Queen Nakia from accusations of murdering the king.

It is later revealed that Urhi was once part of the royal family of a nation that was invaded and destroyed. He endured torture, rape, and castration to ensure the end of his royal lineage. Rescued and cared for by a young Princess Nakia, this explains his profound loyalty to her.
