Avelyn

Avelyn, the Silent is the first vessel to be created, once their concept was brought to life by Beleriach and approved by the Empress. Her statues can be found all over Silverfall.

Early life
Avelyn was the daughter of Beleriach, the First Warden, a brilliant young woman with many talents. She was an excellent academic, who supported the idea of harnessing power from the godchains. Her ideas helped shape Silverfall (known as Welkinvaar) and she always imagined a city among the skies using the power harnessed by the enslaved "God" behind the skies. Her sense of duty towards her mother and the city (and the Empress) led to her volunteering to become the first vessel to be created.

Vessel state
Once becoming a vessel, the Ring of Wardens conducted several studies if the sacrifice was actually worth it and decided to create more. The houses of the court were requested to provide possible hosts, and they did so willingly. Several years later, they realised that Avelyn showed signs of unique powers and started deafening people around her. Being the daughter of the First Warden, instead of slain, she was enslaved in the Necropolitan Vault, and a dome was raised as a tomb above the vault, the Silentarium. The dome later started resonating with the same deafening "silence" as the vessel herself, and since then Beleriach visits the place to mediate on her daughters sacrifice. Lately, she started to succumb to a deep melancholia, fearing that the price was too high and contemplating what her daughter might be feeling, hence her newfound interest in godsilver branding. The recent shifts in her behaviour might point to her heaving a case of silverbane.

Legacy
Avelyn, the Silent became known as a hero of Silverfall, the heroine of sacrifice, an iconic figure who is greatly revered among the people. Statues of her an be found in the Royal Gardens, commemorating her sacrifice.

She, as the Saint of Silence, is the iconic center of the faith. The faith, and thus the church of Silverfall is based on Silence. As the Elantran population is poisoned with aezist in their water, they all start to hear the echoes of the Luvian Scream trapped inside the chains, driving them mad. They pray for silence, to calm their minds.
