Exathi

The Exathi were a culture of non-Adepts in Weyard's ancient past. They were skilled engineers and smiths, and built powerful Alchemy Machines, such as the Alchemy Forge and Alchemy Well. Because of their skill, the Exathi forged an alliance with the Jenei, ancestors of the Adepts. The Jenei trusted the Exathi to the point that the Exathi were allowed to use the machines for their own benefit, even though these machines controlled access to the Jenei's home. However, the machines became inactive following the sealing of Alchemy.

Most known descendants of the Exathi currently reside in the towns of Passaj and Ayuthay. The civilization has recently experienced a revival due to the activation of their Alchemy machines. Passaj is known for their talented smiths who work with the mineral Zol, while Ayuthay has become known for their talented stoneworkers.

Their encyclopedia entry reads as follows:
 * "This ancient people gained the respect of the world-and even the Jenei-with their their great craftsmanship. Though the Exathi had no Psynergy, their skill made them partners with the Jenei in creating things that used elemental power."
