When the Following Alexander Party was hanging out in Kor we got some info from Ayesha. Here it is:


The Burkerae were told by the oracle of Helios that they shoul give up thier powers. They chose the three wisest women of the North in the 4th Cent BC to give their powers to. The Earthly Beauty gave her power to Baba Yaga. The Beauty of the Sea gave her power to Nimue of the White Land(Albion == England), the Lady of the Lake. The Heavenly Beauty would give her power to [Igwilf]] of the land of the bat-eared fox (Finland), but Igwilf refused. So she gave her power to Kundria, from the land of seeds (Germany), though really from the land of the small bronze coins(the Dinaric Alps). Kundria took the name Despuare. Each woman was bound to the land, and the Burkurae were diminished.

Igwilf proved herself an ungrateful bitch. She betrayed Nectanebos and stole his books. She made his daughter Amenartis fall in love with Kallikrates so that they would flee Egypt, distracting thier father so Igwilf could rob him. She had two adopted daughters, though many children born as a shapeshifter. Alexander, Seleucus, and Ptolemy all claimed her as mother/father. Her daughter Aramin died in Illyria, and Igwilf went insane. She pretended that her daughters weren't brought South. She eventually burned all her spellbooks and turned vagabond, perishing in W. Africa.
