The village elder of Laurant, father of Zenia. He was regarded as an imposing figure by villagers not because his position was grand, but because he represented their community. Even those who spoke casually to him did not treat him as an equal neighbor. Afrosa used him as a reference point when understanding noble etiquette, noting that no villager would have dared linger in his home on the day he returned from traveling to meet the lord.
