Viryn
When Helm was slain by Tyr in the late 1300s DR, Eirwyn, the deva devoted to Helm, was imprisoned by Viryn under command of Tyr to cover up Tyr’s divine blunder. Loyal to the end, Viryn ignored the obvious lack of justice, the complete irony. Over the years, with checkups on Eirwyn, they grew an unusual bond. By the Second Sundering, he gladly released her, standing up to Tyr and setting him straight, reminding him of how justice should be carried out. He denounced his divine status as a show of defiance to Tyr, announcing he would raise his coming child on the Material Plane, announcing he would come back when Helm was ready for him. Eirwyn gave birth to Brildi in the realm year 1473 DR, and sent her with Viryn to Helm’s Hold, the last remaining bastion of Helm’s dwindling followers. Viryn raised her to the best of his capabilities until the Ashmadai attack on Helm’s Hold in 1480. He was always suspicious of Rohini, since he never heard anything of Helm’s return even on Mount Celestial, due to Lord Ao’s mysteriousness, especially with the Second Sundering. His suspicions ended up being true, and Helm’s Hold was overrun. Rohini slew Viryn, while a young Brildi watched, terrified from afar. His soul returned to Mount Celestia and he became a petitioner of Helm, reunited with his love, Eirwyn. They watch over their daughter to this day.
