Gabriel Galeseed

Gabriel Danworth was born in 1730 to Langdon Danworth and Isabella Treymoore.

Langdon had a best friend that came around often. Gabriel would watch them and dream of doing the things they were capable of, the magic they were capable of.

When he was 17 he completed a pilgrimage with his father from the Iron Shelf to the Pink Sands Mountains to prove himself to Caeluriel, becoming the next member of his family to pledge service to the celestial in exchange for gifts to serve Arda.

He rose quickly in Caeluriel's favor. Proving himself again and again to be honest, just, trustworthy, and selfless. Caeluriel bestowed elorelata on Gabriel, the ability to have foresight and vision of the upcoming.

Gabriel Danworth met Elora Galeseed for the first time in 1747 when he passed through the Peaqio of the Aggoran Elves territory with his father on a pilgrimage from the Iron Shelf to the Pink Sands Mountains. He was wounded while traversing the wild lands between Trinket Pond and Parcel Pond. Though he was barely more than a boy, they connected over the magic of the forrest. They met again in 1767 when he came through with friends on a journey to the

Elora and Gabriel built their home just outside Elora's ancestral lands and gave birth to Asira Galeseed in 1773.

When Asira was 15 her father had a vision that there would soon be a great threat to their (and their clan’s) way of life, and to life far beyond their corner of the forest. He knew instantly that Asira and her mom’s life would be directly in danger. He set off to intervene with this perceived fate with his best friend, Benjamin, a gilded blacksmith and cleric, and a local ranger “Quarter,” from the closest village who was looking for his next excuse to move on and find adventure.

For the next 12 years he would be gone for months at a time, journeying to lands and seas near and far in seek of answers and direction. When she was 27 and tending to local clansman and animals with her knowledge of ailments, herbs, and other remedies, her father came home and stayed for 6 months. The longest he’d been home for one stretch since he began leaving. He had been cursed by a relic that he’d been told would give him the location of a talisman that he could use to protect 10,000 people. With the help of Asira herbs, Benjamin’s iron divider, Elora’s magic, and time, he was cured.

He knew he had to go back out and keep trying to find answers, but he knew time was no longer on his side. Asira insisted on going with him to help, and so for several months, once a year, they set out, often with Benjamin or Asira’s best friend, an elf named Turaye, in company.

10 years passed this way, living life out in the greater world, yearning for the comfort of their corner of the forest back home and a wife and mother committed to staying and caring for her kinsman.

Now Asira was 39 and Gabriel decided, after much debate and convincing, that he would retire his adventuring, advised that if the vision were to come to pass he would be of better use here with the clan and his wife than halfway across the land. The compromise was that Asira would head out once last time and return before a year was over.
