Book of Wilds
(Lin Zhiyou)
A quiet, homely young man living in the humble village of Amaryil. Naturally very caring and loving—kind, soft. He loves the arts and learning from the world, especially after his years-long coma. His curiosity knows no bounds—it even surpasses the dead.
Blair keeps to himself most times. Heavily introverted, he likes his peace and doesn’t exactly connect with other people as quickly as he used to. It doesn’t help much when he refuses to share his own thoughts with people other than his family and close friends. Curiously enough, his resentment can and will build over time, and with enough simmering, he’ll become more snappy. He’s less afraid to talk in this state, and it’s often the only time he’ll ever be brave enough to speak up without the fear of being wrong.
And speaking of curiousness, Blair is an active seeker of his curiosity. He’s a learner at heart, and almost no mater the circumstance, if something is interesting enough—or if he can’t figure it out himself—he’ll look for the answers. It’s easy for him to doubt himself even with his knowledge, and so he validates himself through logic, and proving something right. It’s a byproduct of his coma, an accident from a few years back—the same one where he lost his brother and his father. He continues to search for his brother’s whereabouts, because while he saw his father’s face before the lid fell over it, his brother’s coffin remained closed.
It sounds hollow.
He loves his Mā, he really does, but with her avoiding the pain, and Ebony—practically his sister, who was awake the whole time—shielding both of them from the past, he grows tired of not knowing the truth. His personal baggage proves to be too heavy for others, and so he internalizes all of it and subjugates himself to running an endless cycle.
I didn’t see him die. I didn’t see anything. I don’t remember anything.
