Lae
Hollowborn guide
Lae is the first of the Hollowborn, given a second life by the Shadow Fiend and a home in Trygve. His warmth toward the village’s children exists alongside a willingness to manipulate others. He helps Veronika arrange Gramiel’s Hollowborn trial and draws the Hero into the scheme through rumors.
Alvi’s failed trial forces him to reconsider the beliefs behind that conduct. Challenged by the Hero, he questions whether fear at death should determine a soul’s worth. He reveals the scheme, refuses to let Veronika make the Hero her next target and gives part of his own Hollowborn self to restore Alvi. The loss of his invincibility accompanies a renewed desire to understand what being Hollowborn means.
