Vaha Sydän
The Final Torchbearer
All this death and madness swirls around us like ash around a fire. All the horror that now festers on the rotting carcass of our culture and our peoples was spawned from that one fatal flaw, that one lack of resolve. Should providence grace us, should the old Lords watch over us, and our hearts remain steadfast. . . It is here that weakness will die.At the end of the last age of the Wraith Globe, all has fallen to ruin. Trust and loyalty have been bartered off for contempt and conceit. The fragile flower of decency has fallen and lies trampled on the ground. In this unending expanse of chaos, the Finite Races are broken, scattered, and without a leader or a place to call home. One Human, Vaha Sydän, rose above the destruction and the strife to regain a semblance of hope from those left after the Great Destruction of the Last Age. She was the last to bear the hope of the Finite Races.- Vaha Sydän, the Last Leader of the World
Personality Characteristics
Motivation
Even since she was young, Vaha heard stories of the first ages of the Wraith Globe, the epics and odysseys that the Finite races adventured through to get to where they are now. She simply didn't want all of that to go to waste. To come so far and to brave so much only to fall into darkness and obscurity. She wanted something more not even for herself, but for the entirety of the Wraith Globe. She didn't want everything she knew and loved, all of the stories and tales she had heard to simply disappear.
Ethnicity
Other Ethnicities/Cultures

Eyes
Cracked and shattered, a hazy grey

Quotes & Catchphrases
"The world that the Wraith Globe once was no longer exists. It is now a wasteland of failure and regrets of kings and Lords long gone, but I am not afraid."
"This may be the end of the world, but that does not mean there cannot be a better world after this one."
Hi there! You may not know me, but I am the sponsor of the Great Leader of Their People Summer Camp Prompt this year! Since you wrote this article, I would like to know, would you mind me reading it aloud on my Twitch channel this week? I have a lot to get through so it helps to do it live while people watch. I've scheduled to go live at 8am and 8pm Eastern Time every weekday. If you join and comment, I can go over your article right then and there! If you'd like to coordinate a specific date, let me know. If you aren't able to make it (or don't want to be present live), you can also always watch streams after the fact on my YouTube channel BUT, if the answer is NO because you'd rather I not, it's okay! Not agreeing to be streamed definitely does not put you at any disadvantage for winning in my eyes. Please respond swiftly by replying here (make sure to click REPLY under my comment or I won't be notified), message me on my World Anvil profile page, Discord, or anywhere else you find me online. Thanks again! Whatever you choose, God bless and much success! <3
