Cherrlin Barvar-Watinar

A Lost Lover
Cherrlin Barvar-Watinar was born and raised in the port side town of Rannikko | Anglunia, and his early years within an orphanage by the library (which was later burnt down), later in his life Cherrlin spent most of his time in the library reading and writing, until one day he met a deck-hand boy by the name of Floryan Merzela-Havikat and within a few weeks, he and Floryan were lovers. The next few months of Cherrlin’s life were wonderful, he and Floryan planted a cherry tree on a cliff overlooking the port and sea, purely because Floryan thought it was funny that Cherrlin’s name sounded like “Cherry, ''. Then the bad news hit Cherrlin like a hurricane; Floryan had to go back to sea for delivery, so like any good boyfriend Cherrlin promised; he would wait by his cherry tree for Floryan to return and so he did.

The Cherry Tree
The first few months of the wait flew by as Cherrlin started to write, bake (all things cherry) and read, he’d go down to town every once in a while to get stuff from the market but, soon even that stopped as he got others to get things for him so he wouldn’t have to take his eyes off the sea. As the months turned into years Cherrlin kept waiting for Floryan to come home, he wouldn’t lose hope. On the tenth anniversary of Floryan going out to sea, Cherrlin swore he saw Floryan’s face within the leaves of his cherry tree.
