Description "viskan, vaykan, Munar Yaduk" - "warrior, conqueror, Munar Yaduk"
"Sayumon Usryor, Đekyor, Saviryor, Sashiryor ea ku Tekarsaranyor" - "Emperor of Usür, the Žeks, the Savyrans, the Ptzkoyans/Kason and of the Tekarsics"

Munar Yaduk, also known as Munar Šisurin ("Munar the Scarred"), was sayumon of Sot-Usr from approximately 4/230 to 4/300.
A leader with strength and security in mind, Munar would become known for his many exploits and active participation in conflicts in the borderland frontiers of the middle state, including the famed battle of Siđa in 4/252 where invading Imak forces were ruthlessly and effectively destroyed in the city's outskirts, solidifying Sot-Usr's control in the region and bringing the realm to it's greatest historical territorial extent.

However, Munar was also a man of swift, decisive action. His staunchly firm views on the flow of things in a time of great concern over the kingdom's frontier territories caused him to doubt the state apparatus and the Savyran-style bureaucracy which helped prevent power from falling exclusively into the sayumon's grip. As a result, he used the impending border war crises as a means of "temporarily reforming" the chain of command as to give the aristocracy considerably less influence in political decision-making, a reform he was in no rush to undo after the many victories he amassed during his reign.
While not the tipping point, these actions would ultimately start a trend of gradual change in Sot-Usri administration which would ultimately see future sayumons becoming increasingly autocratic and despotic, no doubt contributing to the state's eventual shaky existence and capitulation to the Savyran dynasty prior to the outbreak of the Thunder War.


This depiction of Munar is found in the Asvaran Masrin (Golden Codex) dated to 4/254, showing him seated in presumably a hall, flanked below by generalized symbolic representations of ethnic groups subject to him at the time. To the left, a Tekarsic man and a Kasonic woman, and to the right, a Savyran man and a Žek woman
