Fash'lo'nae, also known as "The Grandfather," was an Arkati and member of the Pantheon of Lornon.
Fash'lo'nae was the god of libraries, forbidden knowledge, and magic. His symbol is a yellow slit-pupiled eye on a field of grey. For many, Fash'lo'nae was not considered evil, but was frowned upon for believing that the pursuit of knowledge outweighed everything else, including innocent life. He was a patron of the Erithians.
Shrines, Statuary, and Holy Places
Cleric Guilds
In a Prayer Room inside each Cleric Guild is a statue of Fash'lo'nae. The Prayer Rooms are considered holy shrines to multiple dieties.
An elderly man sits on a severe, straight-backed chair. In his lap he holds a thick tome, his place marked by a long, bony finger. The man's face is a mask of cool, scholarly detachment. His slit-pupiled eyes are focused at some spot in the distance.

>touch Fash
You reach out and touch the statue of Fash'lo'nae.
A chill runs down your spine, as if you had briefly caught Fash'lo'nae's dread attentions.
Wehnimer's Landing Cleric Guild
At the entrance of the Wehnimer's Landing Cleric Guild are a pair of painted wooden statues depicting Lumnis and Fash'lo'nae. In the center of the room stand two statues, one male and one female, backs turned but still looking over their shoulders, each watching the other. They stand upon a wooden base with words carved into the surface. This area is not a holy shrine.
Lumnis and Fash'lo'nae stand, back to back, watching each other warily. Each holds a book, open as if they were reading. While the Queen of Enlightenment holds a book on benevolent knowledge, the Grandfather holds a tome full of destructive learning.
In the Common language, it reads:
"Through knowledge, we bring ourselves closer to the Gods."
One of the Halls of Lessons in the Wehnimer's Landing Cleric Guild is dedicated to Fash'lo'nae. The statue is identical to that in the other Cleric Guilds.
>look altar
Crafted of imflass dulled to a mute shade of grey, the altar's surface is dotted with many subtle whorls. Upon its face is a hammered golden eye, an incised slit running the length of it. An open book lies upon the altar, its pages yellowed and cracked.
>read book
In the Common language, it reads:
"This will be but one of many your eyes shall gaze upon should you follow the Grandfather's path."
