"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 (can we call a star male?) is a member of the Amaranthine Conjunction of stars, which believes in the philosophy of culmination and ending.
The Logoi that patrol the Blue Kingdom are his words, and he controls numerous yoked spirits that serve him. Despite being the Kingdom's ruler, he rarely (if ever) appears there. His light emanates through Death's Door, and is what allows the region's shades to exist.
His dominion over the dead and belief in the completion of all things led him and his daughter to murder the King of Hours, who was using time to prevent the death of his own subjects.
