The insectoid Silith were a dreaded enemy of Amber during the OSW. They possessed a rudimentary form of shadow shifting that allowed them to penetrate the GC at will. Instead of attacking they traveled shadow aiding the other forces in the OSW making many of those who would not been a shadow shifting threat a deadly and unpredictable foe. Eventually they were defeated so completely few remained. The few that remained made peace with Amber and went so far as to assist them in warring on other Outshadow attackers. After the wars in the year 77 the few Silith came to Amber and built a symbolic arch of peace. Unfortunately the Silith were not wise in the ways of Amber and build it in the worse part of town. The Silith arch is made of a peculiar silver/blue like metal that hums in a low tone when you touch it.

Sorry the year said 97
