"Owl, I give you my name, I beg for your power."

"why should I give myself to you?"

"Your eyes, Owl, can see through moonless nights; you pierce the ink-black darkness and you see all in these deep, deep woods."
"I have lost something--someone-- dear to me, so so dear. If I cannot find them, then I will find other people... other things. I do not wish the pain of loss on anyone"

"what would you sacrifice?"

"for me to lose her, I could never find myself again. I will be forever lost, condemned to wander the plains until the night is my last."

"...then, Wander we shall. I accept your contract."




Wander is a Sorcerer, a magical being that gave up whoand whatthey once were, in exchange for their power. To be a Sorcerer is to be cursed; they often bear the weight of loss, loneliness, or grief.

As a man, Wander was a father. When he lost his daughter, he lost his world, and his entire sense of self/ In his grief, he made a contract with The Owl, and gained the power to find lost things, and guide them back to where they belong. This contract binds him, making him forever lost himself; no matter where he is, Wander will never be able to comprehend his location, hence his name. 

Through his years of wandering the plains, Wander's memory of his human life has faded to a haze; he no longer remembers much more than the laugh of his lost daughter, though he still carries the pain with him.
