Jeshua Yahra'Aslan (born ~2243 GD, died 2270 GD, resurrected 2270 GD) is the incarnation of Yah (the divine Son aspect of ElohYahRuosh) and the central messianic figure of the Fourth Age Revolution. Known as the Prince of Peace and The Redeemer, Jeshua serves as the spiritual catalyst for both the overthrow of the Septuni Empire and the restoration of humanity's divine connection.
Biography
Early Life
Jeshua was born circa 2243 GD to humble circumstances within the Yahra'Haba community under Septuni occupation. Unlike other revolutionary leaders who rose through political or military means, Jeshua's authority stems from his divine nature as the incarnation of Yah, the second aspect of the ElohYahRuosh trinity.
