King Shurifon

King Shurifon is Aura's father, husband of Queen Shurifon, and the ruler of the Dark Elf Shurifon Kingdom, as well as the kingdom's strongest Seikishi. He challenges Kenshi to race to see if he is truly capable of leading his men to battle. After he loses greatly to Kenshi's ability (but he did win the race because Kenshi stopped to look for food in the forest), he arranged for Kenshi to marry Aura, to her delight. Later, when the King and Flora come on the Swan, they arrange that Kenshi marry both Aura and Maria, in an effort to unite the three kingdoms.
