adaliz ( az ) reyer of pokemon xy .                    linked to canon found on @harmoniarequiem & @idanikou. 

i . hey its me knight ( he / him ) again . this is a sideblog to idanikou , so follows will come from there .

ii . its about time i made a sideblog for az . so here we are . all my blogs have lore linked to each other .

He’s almost too afraid to ask what language that is, but clearly this person’s opinion of him is already low enough, so might as well take a learning opportunity.

“I will take it as a compliment that you assume I am knowledgable in whatever language you just spoke.”

adaliz was not only the rightful king by birth order , but the gods considered him the rightful king because he has the qualities to be a king . like somnus lucis caelum , he has charisma , he had the trust of the military , he could make the hard choices necessary for a king to make . things like making sacrifices for the greater good . for the benefit of the future . did this make adaliz the best person ? no . his pragmatic nature made the commonfolk feel like they couldn’t relate to him . he was the sun , brilliant & burning . 

but , yvon was soulful & kind . yvon’s bond was with latias — the first one , as there were others in the future . latias responds to emotions . to kindness . of the two brothers , most people would immediately jump into yvon’s arms if they had to choose between them . but much as ardyn lucis caelum was a saint , his kindness made him ineffective . yvon wouldn’t be able to make the hard choices . he also didn’t want to be king . 

so , why did adaliz literally destroy kalos if his brother didn’t want to have the throne ? when he knew the gods chose him , that he was the true king ? well , adaliz didn’t really know how to trust all of that 100% . so he knew , but did he believe it all ? no . that , & adaliz’ patron , solgaleo , wasn’t always around ( although , historians say that the white pyroar was an extension of solgaleo , this wasn’t a total lie , but he only became an extension later ) . but yvon had latias around all the time . 

that , & the ‘ saint of kalos ’ , scion yrisviel , favored yvon in general as a person . she didn’t think he was meant to be king , she fought for adaliz to be king , but she still otherwise favored yvon . so adaliz ended up jealous . that jealousy turned into hate & led to the greatest tragedy in the history of kalos . 

RELATIONSHIPS! 

⛅️  friends of circumstance 

for adaliz , the issue is 2 gods got really MAD . he is immortal because xerneas’ punishment was to deny him an end of life . he is basically indestructible because yveltal’s punishment was that he would always be the person who had torn kalos apart , which resulted yeah in . eternal life , not really aging , unnatural healing , & a lot of ptsd & depression . 

adaliz calls kalos his ‘ death garden ’ because what was left in the wake of the weapon was the bodies of the dead & blooming flowers . from the really messed up combo of xerneas & yveltal’s powers , adaliz has never forgotten that . he has never forgotten how he then used his own power to burn the bodies of the dead , to bury the majority of the crystals that he’d used to fuel the weapon ( the ones left look like giant stones , but once were of a beautiful , blood red luster ) . 

& some other things ( part 1 of ? ) 

known as kalos’ greatest tragedy . this event is often mistaken for other events such as the war of truth & ideals ( 2500 - 2430 BCE ) & the darkest day ( c. 20,000 BCE ) . clearly , it is neither of these , as the darkest day happened more than 20,000 years ago , the war of truth & ideals lasted 70 years . the great war of kalos only lasted 10 years ... of actual fighting , but conflict began in 4453 BCE , so really in the end it’s a grand total of 13 years . still , historians make mistakes . 

as adaliz was the older ‘ twin ’ , he was blessed with the power from the gods . for reference, his mother was ‘ the hero of arceus ’ , who held the blessings of all the gods at the time she became pregnant . when i say twin , i mean adaliz & his brother yvon share a father , but they do NOT share a mother . since the king had a queen & a lover , & essentially it was a nice polyamory , no one really cared in the time ... but also no one knew which son came from which mother . while adaliz had the divine blessing , yvon was still a friend of the gods . he was often visited by latias , but solgaleo didn’t often visit adaliz , & even the boys had no idea who had which mother . 

the war’s beginning boils down to adaliz’ pride & jealousy . & the mess it caused made kalos into ‘ the garden of death ’ . when he built the great weapon , its main purpose was not actually to revive floette , its main purpose was to KILL HIS BROTHER . & he did fire it on his brother . he did not , however , manage to kill his brother . he & his brother both were hit with the immortality . adaliz & yvon hated each other for a while ( yvon evoked the ancient evil that resulted in the harmonia family curse ) , but adaliz still gave the throne to his brother when he ... well ... left for unova . 

over time , the two brothers hated each other less . in the end , they would only really have each other . history , due to mistaking the war of kalos for other events , sorta . doesn’t really have concrete evidence for either brother even EXISTING really ( hence a total lack of a portrait of adaliz for about 4000 years ) . 

one must pay dearly for immortality . 

c. 4475 BCE - adaliz reyer is born ( so is yvon ) . kalos is under the control of the empire of ydvraesia . 

at about the age of 18 ( 4457 BCE ), adaliz becomes king of kalos . 

the great war of kalos happens from 4450 - 4440 BCE . the war ends when adaliz is 35 . he will be 35 for eternity now :( yvon curses his brother ... & thus his brother’s bloodline . floette is revived ??? 

adaliz abdicates the throne to yvon ( ??? what is this an apology ) & leaves kalos for the kingdom of the earth (unova) where like 40 years later he meets dorothea harmonia , who he falls head over heels in love with . he marries & takes her surname , becoming adaliz harmonia . 

romaya harmonia is born in 4388 BCE , adaliz is chronologically 87 , but lol he’s still 35

dorothea dies in 4385 BCE , the harmonia curse passes to romaya .

by the time romaya’s reign begins in like 4258 BCE , adaliz has begun his worldly travels . 

tevrien & idraeil harmonia are born c. 2700 BCE . 

the war of truth & ideals begins around 2500 BCE. 

the war of truth & ideals ends in 2431 BCE . tevrien becomes king of the kingdom of the earth ( unova ) . adaliz hears about this great tragedy . this event is often mistaken for the great war of kalos . 

c. 1524 BCE , floette realizes how she was revived & she leaves adaliz & he falls into a big depression . 

c. 900 CE , adaliz ends up having a portrait painted despite being uh . not king anymore & the painter doesn’t know who he is . soon after he starts using his abilities to disguise himself as an old man 

2000 , the weapon is discovered in kalos . 

2014 , lysandre causes shit . floette finally comes back .
