Difference between revisions of "Lightsong"

Before being Returned, Lightsong was an accountant named '''Stennimar''' who was often employed to discover fraud or embezzlement by looking through ledgers to find discrepancies. Stennimar and his niece [[Tatara]] would often go sailing as it was a hobby of Llarimar, his brother, Llarimar. During one of the excursions, they borrowed the boat ''[[Red Panther]]'' and set sail, and encountered a terrible storm. In the chaos, a massive wave swept Tatara overboard and into the raging waters. Stennimar leaped into the ocean and managed to tie her to a rope despite barely knowing how to swim. While he managed to save Tatara's life, Stennimar was unable to save his own life and drowned in the depths. After his death, [[Endowment]] granted Stennimar a vision of war and destruction. He was offered a choice to Return and prevent this from happening, which he took.{{book ref|wb|57}} His Return restored the faith of his older brother, [[Llarimar]], who became Lightsong's high priest.{{book ref|wb|54}}{{book ref|wb|57}}

In his early Returned life, Lightsong had a close relationship with [[Calmseer]], with whom he was rumoured to have slept with. Lightsong regards some of the Gods of this period, including Calmseer and [[Brighthue]], as very honorable; he remembers them with reverence, saying they are far better and greater than the later Gods.{{book ref|wb|7}}
