Little is known of ZenLarke's origins. Some say he’s a spirit reincarnated from a bird in flight that met an untimely death by a stray arrow between warring factions. Some say he was formed in the sea by the nothingness between the waves washing over the sands at sunset. Others believe he was born from the falling leaves under an ancient oak carved with the words “Memento Mori” ...

In the early days, ZenLarke learned crafting with the Artisan's Guild, and started his journey to becoming a master carpenter and builder. When he heard word of a great cathedral to be built, he traveled to Tursan where he joined The Pillars as the Architect for the Oroael's Cathedral. After the first flood devasted their home and lay waste to the lands, the founding Alderman of The Pillars became disheartened and turned the clan over to ZenLarke...

Through the series of the next few floods, ZenLarke worked to keep the fellowship togehter, and lead The Pillars through Gravas and Ardennes until they settled in Trecassis, where they call home today...
