Loht, the Prince of Shadows, is the son of Arak the Erlking and sister of Maeve, with whom he is co-Ruler of the Arak, previously in Arak (Domain) from the hidden depths of Niurin Scaa and now in the Shadow Rift, sheltered from the light of day by roiling black mists. In 740 BC Loht was deceived into opening way for Gwydion the Sorcerer-Fiend into the Shadow Rift and out of his entrapment between worlds in the Obsidian Gate. Gwydion repaid this unwitting favour by breaking every bone in Loht's body.

Loht is responsible for killing Tristessa for her crimes, in violation of The Law of Arak. He later traded the Eye of Vhaeraun to the now undead Tristessa in return for The Sword of Arak.
