=Overview=
Harlst is a man that has interacted with several legends through both personal relationships and formal negotiations. He was a member of the Regency Council and responsible for several political decisions, such as the grain delivery during Drache's famine and the defense of Drache during the Ellurian-Assi-Korthai war.

=Regency Council Biography=
Of Noble Arangothian birth to a family whose holdings were largely rural in the area
bordering the Elgar forest, Harlst spent an early life as befitted a moderately wealthy
family. However, economic hardship befell the family and it was in this economic hardship
that they fell to a shoe-string budget to pay taxes and keep the lands in working order.
It was into this situation that Harlst Mhern reached his manhood. It was not too long
before the impulses of a young man and even the encouragements of his parents brought him
to take up overseas voyages to Ethcabar-Antara and beyond, as far as Selrose Bay, Dulsi
and the Isle of Myst, to represent his family in trade concerns to try and bring some
money. Mostly these trades involved lumber to the ports that was logged from the Elgar
forest.

It was three years after his eighteenth that his ship was set upon by the Korthai and much
of the crew was killed. Those survivors, himself included, were taken captive. Contrary to
the popular notion that the Korthai ate the flesh of their captives, drank their blood and
sacrificed their hearts to the demons that gave them their skills, Harlst and the other
crewmen were adopted into Korthai society. It was for many years that Harlst was among the
Korthai, and eventually rose to the rank sufficient to captain one of their warships. He
made for himself a rather well-known and respected name amongst the Korthai when news had
come to him of his parents and family having passed on for many reasons. He had also
learned that he was the last heir surviving. When he and several other Korthai captains
began to discuss the ramifications of such an inheritance, it became apparent that the
Mhern family lands were quite suitable for the construction of a Home Port near the
booming new port city of Drache, and a place where many goods could be shipped past
customs in Drache.

The town of Mhernettla was constructed by several Korthai and initially managed in
Harlst's name before Harlst retired into the same town and took up the responsibilities of
acting as an intermediary for Mhernettla and the rest of Arangoth. By then he was known as
Harlst Mhern-Lathvek, having taken the family name of his adoptive family among the
Korthai. It was in Mhernettla that he and many adopted Arangothian Korthai have retired
to.  As a Korthai, he commands great respect for building a Home Port and for his
prowess as a captain. Among the Arangothians, he is respected for able administration of
his lands as well as the wealth that he has been able to put into the lands around
Mhernettla. His reputation amongst some Arangothians is only marred by his adoption by the
Korthai and his acceptance of a status beyond the need to do so.
