"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 a Judgement and the Regent of the Reach.
Long Live the King
By the 1900s, in the Skies timeline, the King has long since died. Without his regulating influence, the Reach overgrew and became the wild and chaotic realm that it is now known as today. Luckily, however, the 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]
Celestial Murder
The Garden-King was murdered when false messengers, who were likely 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]
