It was the holy god of the stars Celestius. He told him that he was the chosen one to spread his story.

Because of this, the council gathered and discussed potential plans for his rescue. A major search began all over the region, with him being finally found in the Temple of Celestius dead.

 If anybody ever finds this letter, I have one thing I always wanted to tell them. My real purpose here was never to grow and maintain a kingdom, but to be the second prophet to share his message. I feel like I have achieved everything he wanted from my life, so it was my time to go. Share this message further with others, he is the only truth in life and we all shall follow him to achieve real fulfillment.  

With his sacrifice to Celestius, the nation faced a crisis on who would become the next king of Etolia. As of now the situation hasn't been resolved, but all signs point to Theopius being the next king.
