Biography
Early life
Azar was born into a wealthy family in Shiraz, a city in the Abbasid Caliphate. Showing a natural and shrewd talent for commerce and trade, her father placed his growing commerce business in her hands. With the commerce industry being heavily dominated by men, Azar decided to adopt a masculine name and mannerism which eventually led to the discovery that she was gender fluid. As per her wish, Azar's friends continued to feminine pronouns while her family's wealth and influence protected her from much scrutiny.[1]
Around this time, Azar came to work alongside Konstantinos, a former friend of her father's which became her partner. In time, Konstantinos became consumed by greed and power and sought to claim the family business for himself. He had Azar's family killed and while she managed to escape to safety, she lost an eye in the process.[2]
Service under Bárid
Azar fled from Persia and travelled north and westward towards Europe. After wounding up in the Ireland, Azar entered the services of Bárid mac Ímair, the King of Dublin who also had a passion for trade and commerce, and sought to turn Dublin into a prosperous trading settlement. Becoming his most trusted advisor, Azar was tasked to establish trade with the various kingdoms and empires throughout the known world.[2]
Around 879, Azar made contact with the Hidden One Hytham, who was based in the Norse settlement of Ravensthorpe in Ledecestrescire, England. This also led to the discovery that the settlement's jarlskona Eivor Varinsdottir was a long-lost cousin of Bárid's. Azar was thus sent by Bárid to establish a trading post in the settlement, as well as to send an invitation to Eivor to invite her to Ireland.[3]
