As the scrawny son of a village blacksmith, there was little that he could do except remain vigilant. He had no talent for working at the forge, and, in spite of his father's wishes, instead trained with the local herbalist who saved him. Until a traveling wizard discovered his latent talent, when he chose to follow the path, he was destined for. Socially awkward, life in a wizard's tower suited him best: generally left to his own devices in a library that could keep him busy for a lifetime. His first lesson was the understanding that necromancy deals with both life and death, and he can use that power to destroy undead rather than creating them. Early in his training, he connects with Thessylia, a short-eared owl, who becomes his closest companion. His mentor had both friends and enemies, and in due time, Mithron would have to deal with them all. Glitter's childhood was unkind, but her sparkling personality allowed her to persevere. As the daughter of a renowned baker, and later a domestic servant, she learned and honed her skills at sewing and cooking. When magic discovered her, it did so with barely controlled force, occasionally pushing her beyond her limits and constantly leaking out in the form of starry motes and minor changes to her appearance. She is naturally charismatic, and often uses her magic to further enchant the minds of others. At a gathering and training session for the apprentices, Mithron unintentionally embarrassed Glitter by revealing a deep childhood secret, splitting the young wizards into rivals. But when tragedy struck, the mismatched pair were forced to put their differences aside to set things right. Necromancer's Lament is Mithron's memoir, told completely from his perspective, focused on his teenage years. It is during this time that he learns wizardry, makes lifelong friends, and begins to learn about himself through his struggles and pain. He is good-hearted and highly intelligent but has little understanding of social norms and interactions. Fortunately, he has friends who can teach him how to better handle being with people, so long as he does not drive them away first.
