Vrondi are air elementals. Many of them greed to be bound into the Web-Spell with which they protect Valdemar from magic users. Magic users complain about many eyes, that keep watching them. The song "Vrondi's Eyes" refers to these eyes. Herald-Mage Vanyel who created the spell, originally intended for the vrondi to watch and notify the nearest Herald-Mage of what they had detected, but when the Herald-Mages died out, they took to simply watching instead. The constant attention eventually drives mages mad if they try to stay. The vrondi effectively kept mages out of the country for hundreds of years.
