❝this tree was grown with rotted roots.❞ Nerluce is Darkest Shadow. He is that great and terrible entity, prophesied over a thousand years before, more like a hurricane than a man.

He is that man-made divinity which no prophecy was able to fortell, a monster made of ice and bone. Frost clings to his lashes as blood clings to his palms.
