Origins of this Ysi date back to BYE 350 during a period known as Pre-Contact - The Falcon Movment. While Caecyan Eitan united Norian nations, the Akhai Ysi began service to the Imperial family of the Caeyara and Eitan Ysi as Shadowguard Amellius. During the Norian'Rolthil'Quaen Divergence it is rumored that some of the ysi may have split from the main clan to follow Ujin Eitan. As of YE 46 there has been meniton or connection to prove one way or the other. While in service to the ruling ysi they became well acquainted with another ysi in service to the Imperials, the Drenai Ysi. The Akhai and Drenai grew close through various unions which has led to offspring with attributes from both sides.

As Pre-Contact - The Falcon Movement began to come to an end members of the ysi began to spread into different pursuits outside of Shadowguard Amellius. Some members began serving the Norian Galactic Empire in various military roles. Though the ysi had begun to diversify in their occupations the undercurrent of loyalty to the Eitans remained. Honorable service continued throughout the Space Race and the Colonization of Ayenee, Umarian Wars, Void Wars, and the Craethel War and The Declaration of Null.

After destruction of the Norian home worlds brought about by the Craethel accompanied by the death of Empress Sinith Caeyara, the ysi took heavy casualties. They followed then Aestaesys Tetsuya Eitan (Airwin Caeyara) and survivors of the Minatu Empire to New Noria. When that ultimately did not pan out due to the Craethel tracking them down, commencing a new onslaught of violent attacks the ysi once more followed to a new home. Their new home in the Akina System of the Kagami Galaxy would come to be known as Tsenlan, established in YE 44.

The symbol of the Akhai Ysi is the Ulithai. It represents the blended paths of knowledge and war utilized in service for the protection of others. Through the ysi's history it has become a symbol of perseverance and determination during troubled times.

The Akhai Ysi is fairly typical in following the tenets of Norian culture. They respect certain aspects of The Church of the Builders, but do not adhere to any teachings relating to xenophobia and slavery in their personal lives.

The Akhai in general, practice these Phaloam

• Loyalty - The Akhai have strictly adhered to being loyal to the Caeyara and Eitan Ysi and their own ysi, in that order. Deviation or any indication of disloyalty to either would be dealt with swiftly and severely. When things get hectic they hold to this phaloam so that there is always one thing that can be counted on.
• Sacrifice - Akhai without hesitation will suffer during times of war, combat, or other crisis on behalf of those they care for. This includes those they are in service to or those they serve with.
• Adaptation - The Akhai believe that being flexible with whatever comes their way is key to survival. If they are able to expect the unexpected and function accordingly it could potentially lessen consequences, save lives, and prevent damage.
• Knowledge - The ysi's thirst for knowledge is well known. They are always looking to better them selves through learning new things. This includes, but is not limited to: history, culture, social habits, and technology.
• Combat - Akhai strive to learn all forms of combat available to them. They will generally master at least one, if not more of these forms. Their general policy when it comes to combat is, “fight to survive.” Which means nothing is out of the question when it comes to what they are willing to do.
