Major Story Arcs
Skept, the daughter of Thaumas the Unrelenting, the god of in-between spaces. Both she and her father died, but she continues on as a ghost, unaware of her death. She killed her father because she wanted to be free to go to a party with Tamlin, who had flirted with her earlier. However, he did not mean it seriously and did not come to the party. After she was dead, however, he came to steal the Stone of Opening from the family. This was the heart of her father’s power. Later, Tamlin gives this same Stone to Tim Hunter.
Now she searches for Tamlin, for revenge. She finds a hawk, which may be a reincarnated Tamlin, and sews its eyes shut, but Tim Hunter shows up and releases it, and releases her from her ghostly life.
