Caste: Incarnate Order
Former Tutor to the Empress and Priest of the Incarnate Order, returned to the ebb and flow of politics and public affairs by order of the Beloved Empress, though he’d much prefer to be back in the quiet solitude of his estate.
Eternity
Already in his final years when he first attended the War Council, Thae-hal spent his final months ensuring that he would bequeath a proper legacy to his people. He entrusted the secret techniques for 'enlightning' the Elemental Manifestatios to a few chosen students, and produced a number of small figurines describing the esoteric channelling forms should future generations ever need a prompt to rediscover those techniques.
After the Empress' disappearance he assisted the group who eventually recovered his finest pupil, and he then spent many of his last days as a sylphim instructing Aysa upon his advances in chitha.
In his fading hours he worked with the Imperial Artist to create a pair of statues and a throne between them within the central chamber of Vyse Peak. One statue of himself and the other of his compatriot Rylim. The sculpting complete the pair took up paint brushes and went to work…
In the morning only Jupalo left the chamber.
Immortalised in Paint
Spoken by an old friend and member of the Incarnate Order at a token memorial
“He may have considered his masterpiece to be Broken Peak and the changes to the sylphim it brought, but his greatest gift to us was our beloved Empress, may her radiance shine for a thousand years. It is he who taught such open mindedness that even the views of those against us should be heard, He may have been old and jaded to some, but to some he shared his true self. Inside his hardened shell was an inquisitive and daring soul. His body maybe have gone, but he shall live on forever in the minds of the sylphim he shaped for generations to come. Rest in peace old friend”

No rest for those who can still teach!
“Students on the tour are reminded that within the central chamber they'll be under the watchful eyes of one of the Chitha Saints, so do try and act in a becoming manner. Place your project before the Great Mentor and perhaps if you've done very well you'll get a wink. Why one year we had a piece so good that he smiled; that student got to present his piece to the Empress herself!”
