Personal history
Antaeus was exiled from his home at the age of 18, as is tradition for all summer T'Chai that come of age in his village. Their fire is seen as too dangerous and they are sent out with the goal of reclaiming their lost home from the elves of the pine, once lost in the seasonal wars centuries ago, and he was not to return until this task was complete. While many might see this act as cruel, Antaeus simply understood it as a fact of life. Still dedicated to his family in hopes that he would finally be the one to retake their home, he set out into the world to bring about that prophecy. Little did he know, he would succeed in his own way. With the discovery of The Oasis, Antaeus sent a message back to his family that there was a home where they could avoid persecution and practice their religious zealotry towards Ashai with others like them. Despite it not being the Pine, many in his family left to the Oasis to start their life their, however Antaeus was not finished. He had picked up other responsibilities in that time, and had new life dedications to others.
