"The Sapphir'd King suffuses the entirety of the Blue Kingdom, but he emanates from its heart. You find him there. He turns his attention to you for a moment. This is enough to immediately and utterly annihilate your officers and crew. Your engine, too, is unmade. You hold yourself together for only a moment longer. Long enough to perceive a blazing, roaring, singing, exhilarating, crushing fraction of him. He is mind. He is light."

The Sapphir'd King is the Judgement of The Blue Kingdom. He is a member of the Amaranthine Conjunction, the conjunction that believes in the philosophy of culmination and ending.

The Logoi that patrols the Kingdom are his words, and the yoked spirits that serve the Kingdom are bound to him. Despite being its ruler, he rarely (or ever) appear in the Blue Kingdom. His light emanate through Death's Door, and is what allowed the shade to exist.

His dominion over the dead and believe of completion is what led him and his daughter to murder the King of Hours for using time to prevent the death of his subjects.
