Filius Caeli

Filius Caeli is a civilian of Plort.

The Tale of Filius Caeli
Filius was a traveller along the lands of Weab, and could often be seen in Fanvik-Neht, Yu’Tub, and Tivit. He was a seeker of lore, always on the search for new stories to satisfy his curiosity.

During a sojourn in Tivit not too long ago, Filius heard of the valiant knights of the Protectorate of Plort. Seeing in Plort a trove of stories yet unread, Filius sailed along the Hyparlink trade route to the island of Konti-Nyuum, where he immersed himself in the exploits of the renowned Jay and Acacia, the lore of the Knights of Retben, and many other divers and sundry tales of the knights of Plort. However, even Plort could not satisfy his never-ending desire for new stories, so he set out for Weab once more, returning to Plort whenever he heard that a knight returned from battle against the Marizu.

Filius would have been content to continue living as a wanderer, going between lands, had he not seen the dread Marizu face-to-face. One day, as Filius was sampling a new tale in the land of Fanvik-Neht, behold, he came face-to-face with a band of Marizu that were sworn enemies of the Knights of Retben. Thus Filius set forth for Plort to seek the knights’ aid.

Filius was warmly welcomed in the City of Borrd, but alas! the knights whose aid he had sought to procure had either disappeared or had never been to the region of Fanvik-Neht where the Marizu had attacked. Yet Filius harboured no ill will against the knights, but decided to become a citizen, for even a wanderer will find the path to the Mountains of Purmeshun closed to all but citizens of the nations of Plort.

Though Filius still wanders far and wide—as is his wont—and has even extended his wanderings to the fabled Library of Dammd, he is somehow never far from Borrd whenever a knight returns from battle. Eager to hear of the conquest in full detail, he will be one of the first to welcome the hero of Plort upon his or her return from a raid against the vile Marizu.
