He was known for his clever tactics and his unwavering dedication to the Irenic Foundation, and many believed that he was the natural choice to become the next Inquisitor of the Windblade. However, when the time came to select a new leader for the Windblade, Aric was passed over in favor of Ellara GreenLeaf. Many speculated that the decision was based on Aric's beliefs about Thoelirn, as he was a member of The Children of Thoelirn and believed that the deity was an elf, while Ellara was a member of The Transcendents and believed that Thoelirn was a celestial being beyond mortal understanding. Despite his disappointment at not being chosen as the new Inquisitor, Aric remained a loyal and dedicated member of the Windblade, continuing to serve the Irenic Foundation with all his might. However, the decision to pass him over in favor of Ellara caused a rift between the two factions, as many members of The Children of Thoelirn saw it as a sign of disrespect and a dismissal of their beliefs. Despite this, both Aric and Ellara continued to work together to achieve their common goal of promoting the ideals of the Irenic Foundation and bringing about a world of peace. Despite their differences, they both knew that their ultimate loyalty was to the Foundation and its cause.
