Description[]

I'm the Warden of Gorhart, and a poor one at that. I've been back from the war for only six months, and been warden for less than two.

Details[]

Herc is the warden of Gorhart, and a recently returned veteran of the Crystal War. He brought his cousin Aewin Rathgar to Gorhart to help him protect the village. He lacks confidence in his position as warden, and considers himself a coward. He holds the Summer Fae in high regard, but is afraid that the hostility of some of the townsfolk might provoke a conflict.

Once they fought the beasts of chaos, marching to glory through many victories. Sadly, they fell, as all great men do.
