Erra

A name from the Old War’s casualty rolls that stopped being a casualty.

Overview

In the recovered fragments of Old War accounting, Erra is listed among the Sentient dead. For most of the modern era that is all the name was: a line in a ledger of a finished war.

Ledgers, in this archive's experience, are honest about sums and hopeless about endings.

The Brother

The New War

Erra lives: son of Hunhow, brother of Natah, field-commander of the armada that poured out of the Veil Proxima. He fought the New War at Ballas's side with his sister's voice bound between them. The question the record cannot close is the one that matters most. How much of the leash did Erra hold, and how much held him?

When the veil fell, Erra's war ended. What became of him after is attested unevenly, and this archive prefers a gap to a guess. The record remains open.
