Regent Galvatar Xebonn

Faces In Time · by Herald Leto Demena

Galvatar Xebonn, of the House Xebonn, was originally from the Drow city Xy'merria, where he did spend most of his life before moving to Miruvhor. I was intrested to know that his family did actually come from the Dark City, but fled just before the Catalysm in order to save their own lives. This of course was long before Galvatar was born, but his people had once held high positions in the Noble House of Miruvhor. When the Gods brought down their fury upon the lands, the citizens of course blamed the ruling government, this being the reason why his ancestors were exiled. In Xy'merria, Galvatar was trained, and studied under the patronage of the famed Drow scholar X'ertia, in the arts of the cleric profession. It was in such studies that he did slowly become aware of the fact that there was a universal movement in all living things towards death, and rather that to attempt in vain to control this force that many call the Cycle, he would do better to understand and examine it. This is where Galvatar found his first true calling, as a Priest to the High Lord Virigoth. All this took place within his first fifty years of life. Soon, being the oldest living male in his family Galvatar took over the position of leader, after the death of his father. He guided his people in power and wealth for another twenty years, always dodging assassins and the blades of rouges who sought to take this rightful place from him. It did not take long though for Galvatar to grow dissatisfied with his place in the lands. With a passion, he then began to research his family, and came upon the ancient texts that recorded his ancestor's Royal lineage. Ambition swelled his brain, and for ten years he debated within himself if he should leave and claim his rightful place. Ironically, this decision was made for Galvatar. It was a dark, winter's eve that Galvatar was praying in his chambers when he looked behind himself to see the visage of a decayed Drow. He was clad in purple and emerald hues, colors so recognized from the books of his family. It was the spirit of one of his ancient relatives, wearing the clothes of his nobility. Such words this specter did speak to him, Galvatar dared not to repeat, to myself or any other, but to make it simple, they did properly motivate him to begin his preparations. A short time later he did emerge from the dark underworld of the drow city into the harsh sunlight of the lands above. Slowly he did adapt, and made his way to Miruvhor. It was when he finally reached his destination that he began working on his own Cycle. He grew quickly, and learned more rapidly than one could imagine, making himself strong in order to follow the destiny that was lined up before him. Galvatar was displeased to find the Royal House of his families origin vacant, empty, lacking organization and the power that rightfully it did command. He knew it was time, his time, to do as he was told and believed. He did scribe to the masses, and was elected by quite a margin, to the Royal House, and did quickly make an impression. Before long, Galvatar did find himself in complete power, leading his people as their rightful Ruler. So far, Galvatar has done quite well as the Regent of Miruvhor. He has many plans for the future, in order to the bring his City the wealth and power it once did hold. His respect for all is one that I find amazing, for it is a trait that even few of my fellow lightwalkers can truly claim to have. Galvatar is currently rebuilding the ports of his city, and will soon command a grand fleet to rule the seas, in aims to create better trade and prosperity to help his township grow. He also plans to implement strict laws in order to better care for his people, for a power such as his can not be ruled by chaos. At his request, I bring a formal address to all Therans, and so include it within my tome, in order to capture such a moment in time. With the posture of a True King, Galvatar did stand before me, and so speak the following message: To my supporters I say this. Know that your faith in me has not been misplaced. Miruvhor will once again be heard in the lands as loud as giants. To my detractors? Well, all I can say is that you have but to look to the seas, and very shortly you will see just what Galvatar's machinations have wrought.
