More information on Grendal:
Grendal
Olafson was born in a small village called
Norcantar. When his mother died in childbirth
he was brought up by his father and various
other women from the Olafson clan, the most
notable of those being Shelanka a priestess
of Odin. Shelanka taught Grendal the ways
of the world and the ways of the incantor
and with her guidance he became a incantor
who worshiped Odin the all father.
After
losing both his father and Shelanka, Grendal
became grief stricken and he spent the next
few weeks praying for guidance but to no
avail. Cormak, his cousin, came to Grendal
and told him that he was leaving for new
lands to find allies to help his people
and Grendal joined him in his search. Cormak
trained him in the use of the sword and
in the customs of these strange new lands.
They arrived many years ago now to the Unicorns
and Grendal's skills soon gained him a position
as Bodyguard to the Lord general of the
Unicorns and then the role of Captain of
the Gate guard. He worked for some time
to gain the trust and respect of the Unicorns
and made many good friends He became a Knight
of Ancalime a year after joining the Unicorns
and was Knighted after a battle with a large
horde of unliving, where Grendal showed
great courage and stupidity so the Knights
said. Grendal's Worship of the All Father
soon changed to a worship of Ancalime and
Grendal's powers of Incantation grew. Grendal
later changed his worship again to follow
Ancalime the White.
The next big event in his life was his Love
for Adelena, though Grendal did not wish
to mention this as he felt the Lady far
too good for him. However, sometime later,
a creature known as a love/hate Golem attacked
a small get together of Unicorns. The creature
turned it's powers on Grendal to cause it
to hate Adelena, yet Grendal resisted it's
powers, and the pair were married at the
next Gathering of Nations.
Grendal later was promoted to the position
of Minister of Justice before becoming the
Imperial Incantor. With Adelena's death,
Grendal mourns and swears that he will never
remarry, for his heart belongs to her.
