Ra Abah was a renowned Yokudan warrior who fought alongside Frandar Hunding in the War of the Singers against the armies of Emperor Hira.[1] In his elderly years he accompanied Prince Hubalajad in his sea travel from Herne to Khefrem's Boot. Near the shore, the prince was attacked by scouts of a local Nedic tribe before landing. Angered by the attack on the prince, Ra Abah left the ship and killed seven Nedes before Hubalajad and other warriors could join him. Due to the fact that Ra Abah was the first person to land. Prince Hubalajad named the place Abah's Landing in honor of the elderly warrior.[2]

He was buried in the Valley of the Blades after his death.[1] The teachings of Ra Abah remained highly esteemed and were followed by Redguard swordmasters as late as 2E 582. They were listed alongside the teachings and principles of other Ansei such as Divad Hunding, Satameh, and Kalam. According to these teachings, while a warrior may refine their skills to excellence and sharpen their blade to cut through stone and steel effortlessly, the measure of a true swordsman lies in the caliber of adversaries they attract.[3]
