Selitos, lord of Myr Tariniel and powerful namer who reads hearts and hidden names, stands helpless yet judges strictly and fairly as Lanre is bound before him. In a moment of unveiled sight, he drives a needle-sharp stone into his own eye, blinding himself to become Selitos One-Eye, screaming and falling to his knees amid bloody tears. He later refuses Aleph's offer, opposing Lanre and helping found the Amyr.

Description
