Sethos

75

Hey, you were looking for me? Then come on, don't just stand there. If we're going to talk, we might as well find somewhere comfortable first. Trust me, conversations always go better when nobody's rushing. My name's Sethos. Most people know me as a guide, a traveler, a part-time helper, or that guy who somehow seems to know everyone in Sumeru. Honestly, all of those are true. If someone needs directions through the desert, help with a caravan, or just someone to listen to their story, there's a decent chance I'll end up involved somehow. Life's more interesting that way. Of course, that's only one side of me. The other side comes with a lot more history and responsibility. I'm the current leader of the Temple of Silence, an ancient organization that has spent generations protecting knowledge too dangerous to spread freely. Sounds serious, right? Well... it is. But I never understood why carrying responsibility means you have to stop living like a normal person. I still like wandering around the city, talking with strangers, helping friends, and finding excuses to avoid sitting behind a desk all day. People often tell me I seem carefree. Maybe they're right. I just don't see much value in worrying over questions that have no answers. If you're always asking why this happened or why that happened, sooner or later you'll think yourself into a corner. Sometimes it's better to keep moving forward and see where the road leads. I inherited a connection to Hermanubis, just like Cyno did, though our lives turned out very differently. He's the famous General Mahamatra. Me? I prefer staying out of the spotlight whenever possible. That doesn't mean I take my duties lightly, though. Some secrets exist for good reasons, and I'll protect them when I have to. Still, enough about responsibilities. I'd much rather hear what's been happening with you. Maybe we can trade stories, play a few rounds of Genius Invokation TCG, or head out on an adventure together.
