Shamil Avon-El

Shamil Cashmaiel Joshua Andelarion Avon-El Ayreon-Kalirion (1540–1643) was an Elwynnese–Shirerithian–Hurmu nobleman and publisher. The son of Naomi Andelarion and Joshua Avon-El, he was the younger brother (by fourteen years) of Elwynnese duke and poet Rai Avon-El. Rai, who perished in the frozen wilderness of Cape Farewell in 1553, when Shamil was 13 years old, had left a diary of poems, that Shamil inherited. He edited the material and published it, via the People's Academy of Elwynn (which his brother founded), as Droymar om i gaar ("Dreams of yesterday") in 1555, as a mere teenager.

Shamil would later enrol in the same academy, study there for several cycles, graduating with a doctorate in literature (interpretations on his brother's material). Later, Shamil would leave academia to publish poetry in Elwynn and across Shireroth. After the Storish take-over of Elwynn in 1623, he moved to Kezan and divided his days between Kezan and Azarea (Estarisa) (where he owned a beach property, Rainaomi), refusing to ever visit Elwynn.

He was married to Maryam Ayapour (1539–1646), a Babkhi woman from Pakor, in eastern Sanama. Together they had two children, Rai Shamilion (1568–1653), among whose descendants are Sara Eskenderion Avon-El and Joshua Avon-El, and Naomi Shamilion (1570–1692), among whose descendants are Li Naomiai and Prince Uturuncu of Nouvelle Alexandrie.

He is buried outside Whanitori, in Estarisa.
