Athril
He loved Maeve. A thousand years after she killed him, his own sword and his own ring are the two things that finally kill her.
Athril is a Fae warrior of the ancient world, friend of Brannon Galathynius and lover of Queen Maeve, from Throne of Glass — the original bearer of the flaming sword Goldryn and of Silba's ring. He dies early and off-page, and then spends the whole saga killing the woman he loved, one inherited weapon at a time.
