Aniol

Aniols are sentient beings of held memory that exist as protectors for those who protected them in life. Many knights in the Alazor Empire dream of becoming Aniols as it is often regarded as a sign of heroic nature and a strong life.

Creation and Purpose
It is unknown exactly how Aniols come to existence, it is also unknown how many Aniols exist in the world as they only appear when their constant is threatened. Many of the priests in the Alazor Empire attribute Aniol creation to their Gods of worship, but there has been no confirmation of the fact. It's likely that this reasoning is completely false as there have been reports of Aniols appearing in the Dark Lands.

Aniols are spoken as good luck charms to many people. This is due to their purpose for existence. Aniols seem to appear only when a certain person important to them in their life before death is in danger.
