Sun King Ostro Kelwynd

A patient, kind, and loving man who always put the good of his children before anything else.''' '''

Ostro was an avid gardener and often used gardening as a way to clear his head and meditate upon his next moves.

He married Lorelle Harrell and between them they had three children, Vitalia, Vronti, and Sylina. Lorelle died while giving birth to Sylina.''' '''

A few years after Lorelle passed away, Ostro’s health began to fail him. As his health continued to degrade, he was diagnosed with the Wasting Sickness, an incurable disease that slowly ages and destroys the body until it shuts itself down.

When the Sickness got much worse, Ostro knew he did not have much time, so he sent Vronti all across the land of Helios to meet with the other lords and ladies and begin to build relationships with them. During this time, Cygnis went on a sabbatical so he could spend time taking care of and cooking meals for the slowly, painfully dying Ostro. Sylina, being the only child still in Sunsky, also helped out and took care of her father in his last couple of years.

He finally gave in to the Wasting Sickness at the age of 56, an emaciated and broken man. Before Ostro died, however, he did get to meet baby Theodosios, his newborn grandson. This gave the withering Sun King some measure of peace before he passed away.
