[ she'll get to meet Tara soon, she's just. angry. right. so this story first. ]
I suppose more accurately he was two beings, or ... the two halves of what used to be a single creation. I mentioned the Shadow-Cursed Lands, correct? The blight of Shar? His name was Oliver, and he was, to my understanding, created when the curse settled on the region and rent him from the being, Thaniel, that embodied the spirit of the land. For a great many years, Thaniel was banished, and the part of himself that was Oliver remained. He appeared to us as a small boy, with seemingly little memory of who, or what, he was supposed to be, and apparently a great amount of loneliness. I can only imagine, of course.
We were able to convince him, eventually, that he should reunite with the lost part of himself we were able to recover. I ... don't know what they decided in the end. If they should rejoin their disparate selves, or stay indepedent. But one has to hope it worked out either way?
