''Info''

Denedran is from Mount Ledrik, home to the hillfolk collectively known as the Sparrow Kin. The son of a village shaman, Denedran was one of many Sparrow Kin youths rounded up and pressed into the service of the Empire. He and his fellow tribesmen were taken across the mountains and over the sea as part of Leo III's wars of conquest. The teen proved to be a skilled tracker and helped lead a company of Heartstone Knights through the treacherous Onyx Pass. He went on to prove his valor at the Battle of the Boar's Den, holding a narrow bridge with several fellow archers. He was eventually made a squire to Sir Pevel Lesko, an elder Heartstone Knight who saw his true potential. He would help Lesko and a rag-tag band of mercenaries in several sorties behind enemy lines, gathering information on the goblin horde and enemy cities. The fatherly Lesko would retire, but before he did he knighted Denedran and gave him his blessing. 

Returning home from the war after several years, Denedran was on the path to his village home when he received a vision of St. Kirlan, patron of the Sparrow Kin and the first Warden of the Heartstone. In the vision, Kirlan told him to find a cave hidden in the shadow of a cyprus tree. Following the saint's command, Denedran found an enclave of the Quiet Hand, a hero cult that worshiped Kirlan, preached altruism, and which believed that the church was corrupted by political ambition. Spending several months with the Quiet Hand, Denedran was indoctrinated into their ways and made one of their number.

As his first duty to the Quiet Hand, Denedran has been sent to aid an expedition involving the Heartstone Codex. The cult believes that there is danger of a conspiracy within the Heartstone Knights, one which could tamper with the Codex in an attempt to influence the increasingly instable Empire.
