Son of Furrows is a man who migrated into Rathnir in search of a new life, and eventually assimilated into the Draamrith people and culture.

His real name is Bartholomew Beilova and he grew up far west of the land of Rathnir. He lived in a small farm town called Eloia. Currently he is a citizen of Draamrith and has sworn loyalty to the Draamrith people. In Rathnir he goes by the name Son of Furrows.

Timeline
Immigration to Rathnir

After a series of events coerced him to leave Eloia he migrated east coming to a small Mushroom biome island just outside the border of Rathnir (-8000, 1800). From there he rowed into Rathnir traveling south of the Mesa biome peninsula and landing on the Mesa coast near -5200, 1600. After roaming and looting deserted lands for a few days he was invited by the leader of the Draamrith people, Schyther, to join the group's new town, which he accepted.

Time in Draamrith

Son of Furrows was one of the original members of Draamrith, working with Schyther to build the town and mine for gold. When he became a member of the town he swore loyalty to Draamrith, which he intended to keep until the end. During the early stages of the town he helped gather resources, expand the town, and worked on relations with the neighboring nations, Bardonia and Uldarash. During this time he lived in a two story house near the center of Draamrith.

He was invested in Draamrith's politics, and primarily argued about the most pressing issue: Draamrith's statehood. He desired independence for Draamrith, but saw that the only way to keep the land was to merge the town into either Bardonia or Uldarash. He helped to solve the confusion of the town's identity by organizing a meeting between the President of Draamrith, the Emperor of Ardat, and the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Uldarash, called the Deliberation of Draam Territory. In the discussions both nations refused to allow Draamrith to remain in the Mesa and Axyr allowed the Draam people 24 hours to leave or else Bardonia would use force. Son of Furrows planned to lead a group of Draams migrating into the Uldarash mesa city of Kaahiru, which prompted Uldarash to appoint workers to fix up the town in preparation for the immigrants. Son of Furrows applied for and recieved Uldarashi citizenship, but the party never went to Kaahiru, moving to Maliath instead.

Time in Maliath

After leaving the mesa the Draam people relocated to the far east edge of Rathnir, slightly west of Duragrad, and founded a new city called Maliath.

After Bardonia forced the Draam people to leave their town Son of Furrows resolved a hatred for Bardonia, believing it was a power hungry and war-mongering nation with too much power.

Beliefs, Ideals, and Motivations
Draam Loyalty

Upon joining the town of Draamrith Son of Furrows swore loyalty to Draamrith. He claims to uphold this oath until the end of Draamrith. Although he continues to live with the Draam people in Maliath it's unclear if his oath continues to apply to the Draam people, or if he considers it void because Draamrith is disbanded.

Uldarash and Bardonia

After his experiences with Uldarash and Bardonia in the mesa, Son of Furrows at first resolved a hatred for both the large nations, believing they were power hungry and war-mongering empires with too much power.

However overtime he grew fonder of Uldarash due to individual citizens' and officials' kindness toward him and the Draam people. Specific instances include Nikephoros offering to accept the refugees from Draamrith into Kaahiru, and ordering the city be rebuilt to accommodate them, and an Uldarash worker named Theodore helping him retrieve his items and horses Allepa and Betha after Kaahiru claimed land over them.

Son of Furrows' distain for Bardonia remained due to the hostility with which their leaders conducted themselves, however after going through extensive research on the history of Bardonia he concluded that they were not such an oppressive empire.

Son of Furrows had plans to create an anti-Bardonia coalition, tasked with toppling the empire, after speaking with many citizens of Rathnir who seemed to agree with him, but gave up this idea after researching the history of Bardonia and concluding it was relatively civil, deciding instead to focus on the prosperity of Maliath.
