His Backstory

See Blackflame Empire: A Timeline. There are only a very few sacred artists alive today who still practice the Path of Black Flame. One is a magestic turtle, Orthos.

Eithan spoke with a wistful sadness. “Long before my time as Patriarch, Orthos served as a liaison between the Arelius and the imperial Blackflame family. Only ten years ago, he overused his power defending us from attack.. .Orthos’ own madra overwhelmed his mind. He gave too much of himself for the sake of protecting my family. The branch heads spent a fortune trying to restore him, to their credit” (Blackflame chapter 10)

Bonding with Lindon

Eithan Arelius wanted to help Orthos, while helping Wei Shi Lindon-Arelius. So Orthos bonded with Lindon and taught him the Path of Black Flame. Lindon helped Orthos clear his channels of harmful madra buildups. With the help of Lindon and Little Blue he was able to regain some measure of sanity. This was further helped by his time spent in Ghostwater (Pocket World), where he accessed the Dream Well, the Spirit Well, and the Life Well, plus he ate sacred meat.

Sacred Valley

In Underlord, Orthos temporarily leaves Lindon and the others, saying that Sacred Beasts do not have to undergo a revelation to reach Underlord. Instead, they chose what they wished to become (ex: Orthos could remain a turtle, become a dragon, or even become human, as seen by Seshethkunaaz, the boy King of the Dragons). For this reason, Orthos leaves and is later seen in Sacred Valley alongside Lindon's sister, Wei Shi Kelsa. He helps her and teaches her. He also gets Jai Long and Jai Chen to help free her mother.
