“ | Those humans burned Serenes Forest and killed my people. No amount of human blood can slake my thirst for vengeance. For my siblings, for my countrymen, I demand justice. I cannot even return my bedridden father to our forest home! | ” | — Reyson, on Lorazieh |

Biography
Lorazieh was the ruler of Serenes at the time of the Serenes Massacre. He was one of five herons known to have survived the disaster, and he was rescued by Phoenicis' King Tibarn after the massacre, along with his third son, Reyson. At the time, they believed themselves to be the only surviving herons. Lorazieh and Reyson were taken in by Tibarn, where Lorazieh became near-permanently bedridden, possibly as a result of his grief at losing almost everyone and everything he loved to the massacre. For the next twenty-three years he remained confined to his bed in Phoenicis Hall, rising only very rarely rising, and leaving Reyson to act in his place as the representative of Serenes.[2]
During the Mad King's War and the subsequent three years, it was revealed that three more of Lorazieh's children had survived the massacre: Lillia had been captured by Ashnard and later died in his custody, Leanne had been saved by her sisters, and Rafiel had inadvertently evaded the massacre after being captured and sold to Hetzel; on learning of Leanne's survival, Naesala remarked that seeing her would help Lorazieh to recover.[3] Late in the war, the sleeping Lorazieh was present in the room with Leanne when the Black Knight came to abduct her, and the Black Knight threatened to murder Lorazieh to convince her to come quietly.[4] Three years later, after the defeat of Ashera, the three bird tribes chose to reunite into one nation and return to the Serenes Forest, where Rafiel performed a ceremony to awaken Lorazieh.[5] He later urged his ancestor, Lehran, to be healed by the galdrar of the surviving herons.[6]

Reyson: The same as ever. Since that terrible day, he remains abed... He seldom rises anymore.
