Hamon

  • Minor
  • First seen · Book 1 · Ch. 19

Hamon has the solid, familiar presence of a cook who is more often found working through the night than making a show of himself. A flask and a heavy quiet cling to his image, but beneath them there is a tenderness that makes his pain difficult to look away from.

Hamon begins as the night baker and cook, a large man known for carrying a flask, until a kitchen fire leaves him badly burned. In the infirmary, Ash heals the monstrous burn on his back, leaving bright pink, tender skin as Hamon weeps with relief. The experience marks a turning point: he swears off drinking, emerging from the ordeal with a changed resolve.

Description

Hamon is a large, substantial man, usually associated with his cook’s whites. A flask is a familiar accessory, and his most distinctive feature is the enormous burn across his back, nearly healed with bright pink, tender-looking skin. His age, hair, eyes, complexion, and facial features are not specified in the text.
