"They rage against the sun's death at the hands of a half-sun, a midnight murderer. The killer sent false messengers bearing a well-seed. They planted the seed in the sun's heart, and it bloomed! Bloomed and ravened. A lawless killing! A shameful death, enacted without due ceremony!"[1]
The Garden-King was the Regent of the Reach.
Long Live the King
By the 1900s, in the Skies timeline, the Garden-King is long since deceased. Without his regulating influence, the Reach overgrew and became the wild and chaotic realm that it is now known as today. Not one to be taken by surprise, however, he Garden-King prepared light-emitting plants that keep the region somewhat well-lit, so the Reach isn't completely dark by any means. The Garden-King is responsible for the conception of the Scrive-Spinsters at the Forge of Souls.[2]
The Garden-King was murdered when false messengers sent by the Halved planted a well-seed in its heart. This created Old Tom's Well, and the corpse of the Regent now lies deep within.[1] It is said that you can still hear the Garden-King's spirit throughout the Reach, manifesting as the Peacock Wind, as he rages at his own unlawful murder.[3]
