Ember court kleia and pelagos trial#

Eridia tried to cleanse Nikolon's doubt and asked the Maw Walker to help her, but told Pelagos to stay out of it, as she worried that he more 'fragile' than most when it came to cleansing. They found that many of the aspirants were being overwhelmed by doubt, including Eridia's disciple Nikolon, whom the Maw Walker found talking to Uther before they brought him to Eridia. Īt the temple, Eridia the Hand of Purity told Kleia to assist the Paragon Vesiphone, and Pelagos and the Maw Walker to assist the struggling disciples in the temple grounds. After this disappointing reply, Pelagos and Kleia returned to Aspirant's Rest, where Disciple Kosmas had come with news about trouble at the Temple of Purity. The Maw Walker's undergoing of the trials attracted the attention of Kalisthene, who simply said she'd shared the Maw Walker's news with the Archon. Pelagos first sent the Maw Walker to spar with the other aspirants to test their stamina.

Pelagos and Kleia accompanied them to the Aspirant's Crucible, where-after they'd helped Forgelite Sophone-they'd be put through a combat trial with Athanos.

The Maw Walker had come to Bastion to inform the Archon about kyrian serving the Maw, but to get an audience with her they needed to walk the same path of ascension as the kyrian. Kleia couldn't help him, since it's forbidden for aspirants to intervene in each other's trials, but the Maw Walker was allowed to save him and bring him back to his soulbind. Ģ7 September 2016 The Path to Ascension Īt the same time as a Maw Walker arrived in Bastion, Pelagos made another attempt at the Rite of Purity in Aspirant's Rest, but his violent memories began to overwhelm him. At times he worried that he'd never manage to become an Ascended and that he'd get sent back to Oribos to be assigned to another afterlife, but Kleia assured him that he'd overcome his challenges.

Pelagos struggled with the ascension rituals that all kyrian undergo, failing every time he attempted the Rite of Purity to cleanse himself of his memories. Pelagos and Kleia grew closer and eventually became soulbinds themselves.

Īs a kyrian, he befriended Kleia, another aspirant, and offered her support long after her first soulbind ascended and she lost all contact with her. He has noted that his mortal family likely wouldn't recognize him anymore. He was greatly excited by this, as it meant that his appearance finally matched who he was on the inside. After his death, his soul was sent to Bastion and was reborn as a kyrian with a male form. He never felt that his body represented who he was inside and struggled with that identity his whole life. In his mortal life, Pelagos presented as a woman, though he doesn't remember what his name or race was.
