Nanha Niski
Overview
Nanha Niski was architect and engineer, eldest sibling of Niski family alongside sister Aroro Niski and brother Edire Niski. Dedicated talents to architecture while siblings pursued different paths—Aroro joining Yzmir to master magic, Edire focusing on sciences. Following 305 AC tsunami that reshaped economic landscape and took sister Aroro’s life, Nanha and brother tasked with rebuilding Arkaster capital, creating opportunity for adoption of kelonic energy technology at scale.
Capital Rebuilding - 305+ AC
Nanha and brother Edire Niski tasked with rebuilding Arkaster capital after 305 AC tsunami. As chief-architect, Nanha directed the reconstruction and designed several new districts.
District Designs
The districts of Nafitera and Kabatas were established during the reconstruction under Nanha’s direction. Resolutely modern for their time, with wide thoroughfares and spacious streets, these districts served as experimental zones to persuade the rest of the capital to fully transition to Kelon technology.
Kladiver was the third district whose plans Nanha sketched during the reconstruction, designed as an extension of Sjena along Sforafjord.
Kelon Technology Transition
Edire remembered Vaike Swiftwater’s and Anuar Binbasaki’s kelonic energy work from Avesta conference. Edire believed Kelon was key to ushering Asgartha into new age where science could meaningfully improve human life.
Partnership led to invitation of Vaike to Arkaster Guilds’ headquarters to lead infrastructure transition—trams, lighting, and more—to kelonic energy. Rebuilding project served as proving ground for Swiftwater’s kelonic technology, demonstrating practical applications that convinced skeptical industry leaders.
