Brannon Galathynius
Aelin's fire didn't start with Aelin. It started two thousand years earlier, with a bastard the sun goddess chose and a theft that outran a queen.
Brannon Galathynius is the first King of Terrasen and the founder of House Galathynius, from Throne of Glass — Mala Fire-Bringer's son, original wielder of Goldryn and the Eye of Elena. Everything Aelin inherits, and everything asked of her, traces back to a choice he made and buried.
