In 958 NT, the Shadow Wraith armor and its companion pieces came into the possession of King Holmeir of Grenwiel during a time when [[Jenn-Kellon]] was rapidly and forcibly taking over other kingdoms. King Holmeir was in the middle of negotiations with [[Mol-Rehan]] to help protect his kingdom from the steady advance of [[Jenn-Kellon]], but he did not trust [[Mol-Rehan]] motives either.
As a dutiful follower of Magranon, King Holmeir gained posession possession of the Shadow Wraith armor as part of his loyalty to the church instead of any declaration of power or wealth. It was his only intention to keep the Shadow Wraith set secured on behalf of the elders of the church as he was told the known history of the Shadow Wraith pieces and came to understand the risks of allowing anyone to attempt to wield it, especially a potential enemy.
As many principalities and kingdoms such as his started to fall under the influence of [[Jenn-Kellon]], King Holmeir entrusted the treasures of his kingdom, including the Shadow Wraith set, to his royal Arch-Prelate, Wynn Nivani, to secret them out of his kingdom and away from their adversaries as he himself focused on the diplomatic battles to come in an attempt to save his people.
