Notes

Kio, The Absent King - Also a god, but had no influence of men being raised. He uses all his powers as he pleases, and takes great interest in the restrain Heinen has. While not as powerful, he employs cunning over brute force. He has a particular interest in the perversion of one's values. Be it evil trying to be good, or vice versa. This resulted in him playing an active role in helping Heinen revive Angelis.

Asque - A soldier enlisted as a mercenary who was more akin to a scholar than a warrior. He was hired by the Alfre Risen Hearts because of his friendship with the captain, and his knowledge on maps and mythology. When the Risen Hearts were hired to kill the champion Heriette, complications led to the mercenaries being killed. Asque was the last alive, and put up a good fight. During the fight, he discovered he could control the stone roots, and was able to land a stab on Heriette, spraying blood all over Asque. This was too little, too late however. Asque had his chest caved in soon after gaining this knowledge, and died. But a terrible curse plagued him, for Heriette's blood had mixed into Asque's his body did not actually die. It still breathed and his heart still beat, albeit braindead. Soon after, his living corpse was recovered by the state.

Asque, Champion of Stone - While his body was recovered by the state, his soul was taken by the Lord of Stone, who ruled over the Stone Woods where Asque died. The Lord of Stone used his soul to create a champion of stone. Asque became a religious warrior, with agency and authority. He rarely interacted with the Lord of Stone, but still received his blessings. He acted as insurance for the Lord of Stone, should anyone turn against him. During this time, Asque was granted the Halespear and the Fumispear, and with it, became the Father of Spears.
