Son'Kiel’s origins are woven into the fabric of mortal hopes and dreams. They were not born in a traditional sense but emerged as a manifestation of the collective prayers and longings of sentient beings. In an age long past, when sickness and sorrow swept across Dolviar, mortals cried out for relief from their suffering. From these desperate pleas, Son'Kiel coalesced in the Celestial Bloom, a radiant plane brimming with life and vitality. They became the embodiment of health, happiness, and restoration—a divine response to mortal need.

Early Divine Work:

From their inception, Son'Kiel’s presence brought immediate comfort and relief to Dolviar. They became known as the Joybringer, walking unseen among mortals to inspire acts of kindness, heal the sick, and mend broken spirits. Wherever they appeared, joy flourished, and communities thrived. Their teachings encouraged mortals to care for one another, fostering unity and harmony. It was during this time that they created their most enduring legacy: the Radiant Circle, a group of mortals dedicated to carrying forth their mission of healing and joy.

The Great War of the Gods:

The tranquility Son'Kiel nurtured was shattered during the Great War of the Gods. As the divine factions clashed, their energies wreaked havoc on the mortal plane. Son'Kiel, a being of peace, avoided direct confrontation but worked tirelessly to alleviate the suffering caused by the conflict. They healed warriors from all sides, restored devastated lands, and tried to mediate among the gods. Despite their efforts, the destruction was immense, and the war ended in the silence of the gods, severing Son'Kiel’s connection to the mortal world.

The Silence and Its Impact:

The divine silence hit Son'Kiel’s followers hard. Without their direct guidance, many struggled to maintain hope and joy in a world still scarred by war. The Radiant Circle became a critical force, striving to keep their teachings alive despite dwindling divine power. Son'Kiel’s absence has been interpreted in different ways: some see it as a test of their faith and resilience, while others despair at the perceived loss of their radiant deity.

For Son'Kiel, this silence is a deeply painful experience. Though still present in the Celestial Bloom, they are unable to fully reach their followers. This separation has diminished their once-radiant presence, leaving them to reflect on their role and purpose.

Current Era:

In the present age, Son'Kiel’s influence is subtle but enduring. They appear in fleeting moments of joy and comfort—a soft laugh, a warm embrace, or the beauty of a blooming flower. The Festival of Radiance is celebrated annually as a tribute to their teachings, and the Radiant Circle continues to spread their message in a world desperate for healing.

Though diminished, Son'Kiel remains hopeful. They believe that their followers’ perseverance and acts of kindness will eventually bridge the gap created by the silence. In their celestial realm, they prepare for a time when they can fully return, bringing the light of joy and restoration to Dolviar once more.

Son'Kiel transcends mortal concepts of gender, identifying as a blend of all gendered aspects. They represent harmony, balance, and inclusiveness, embodying traits considered masculine, feminine, and beyond by mortal cultures.

Son'Kiel is asexual, focusing on love and connection that transcends physical attraction. They emphasize emotional and spiritual bonds, promoting communal well-being and joy over individual desire.

As a deity, Son'Kiel was not educated in the mortal sense but arose from the collective knowledge and wisdom of mortal beings' aspirations for health, happiness, and restoration.

Son'Kiel’s “career” has always been their role as a divine caretaker, healer, and bringer of joy. They have “worked” through inspiring followers, guiding acts of kindness, and fostering communal harmony.

The Laughing Healer Legend: Saved a plague-stricken city through laughter, symbolizing the power of joy in healing.

Son'Kiel’s inability to maintain their connection with mortals after the Great War of the Gods is seen as their greatest failure, despite being beyond their control. This absence has led to widespread suffering and a crisis of faith among their followers.
