Daltor Laí, also spelled Daldor Lai or Daltorlai, is the name given to a loose confederation of Didrian clans living in the southernmost parts of Ruyell and in small areas of southwestern Cane united under various kings. Around fifty clans lived within the realm, Clan Kinicah being the most powerful among them, having produced the majority of the kings and overlords that ruled the country. The realm reached its peak under the reign of Carthanic knc Dorman in 287 NA. By 302 Daltor Lai's power and influence declined in the face of the growing Cittish threat in the east. Weskitch in particular created the most trouble for the realm, having invaded it on three occasions between 305 and 307. Each invasion was repulsed successfully by the Didrian but with an increasingly high cost. These Pyrrhic victories created disunity among the clans and led to their split. The power of the king's rule was tenuous for much of its existence and was unable to prevent the breakdown of the realm.
