Overview
Seralyth is the queen of Soltheris during Aurion's reign, Aurion's wife, and a divine healer based in the Luminary Halls in Zeydrith. She works among Soltheris healers, advises Aurion in the royal court, and steadies him while Soltheris fights the Land of Darkness. After her death in the cataclysm, Aurion restores her preserved body with the last power of Jorhan's spiral shard, returning her in an altered form with her memories and new darkness magic.
Life in Soltheris
Seralyth is publicly queen and works practically as a healer. At Dravemir, she tends the wounded while Aurion and Soltheris's defenders fight darkness creatures and wraiths. In Zeydrith, she manages essence-core inventory at the local essence tower and heals civilians after a plaza explosion. She was a benevolent queen and the patron of an orphanage.
Aurion's inner circle includes Seralyth, Kaelric, Daryas, and Astheron. She usually agrees with Aurion's decisions. She also challenges his recklessness, warns that his burdens will one day become too much, and pushes attention toward endangered villages.
Death and Restoration
When the orrery goes out of control, Seralyth stays near Aurion, Mirael, and the defenders around them. She retreats with Mirael as the shockwave crosses the field, and the shockwave kills her. Mirael closes her wounds, and Seralyth remains dead. Aurion carries her body back to the Luminary Halls, and Daryas keeps it preserved in the deepest cold storage beneath Soltheris.
Long afterward, Aurion uses the nearly depleted spiral shard on Seralyth's preserved body. The spell rebuilds her body and restarts her heart, then the shard shatters. The restored Seralyth has night-black hair, blue-black eyes, darkness tendrils coiling around her blue-and-gold robes, Seralyth's memories, darkness magic, and slightly greater aggression. She immediately chooses to fight for Xalmyrra and commits Aurion's gift of life to that purpose.
Magic After Restoration
Before her death, Seralyth uses divine magic for battlefield healing. After her restoration, she also wields darkness magic. Her darkness magic begins with the restoration. She uses tendrils for movement, descent, restraint, and shielding.
Seralyth travels with Kaelric and then Brynor as Xalmyrra prepares for Nerissa and Gabriel's attack. She reunites with Mirael at the Imperial Institute, joins the defense of Erenmyr's coast, brings down an empowered lightning mage with darkness tendrils, and layers a darkness shield around the unstable body before Brynor takes the blast underground.
