BillGarrett/Carbon

Carbon, son of Barone.

He earned the emnity of Aka-cho, God of the Home's Hearth, for he seduced the god's only daughter. Maelia, the Comely Maiden Spinning at the Hearth, was a blushing child just come to womanhood when Carbon met her. Now she lovingly nurses his get while her father rages. In his fury, Aka-cho pronounced a dread curse on the insouciant Lunar. Never again should he be able to sleep under the roof of someone who welcomed him, nor accept hospitality for a fortnight before his host's salt and wine became like vinegar in his belly, nor make a true home of his own in anything but Nature's cruel arms. Driven from the hearth, the god barred him thusly from ever drawing near his daughter again and cursed him to a life of eternal wandering.
