Deston Burke

Deston is the father of Faron Burke, and the main antagonist of Book 1.
He was killed in The Reset with the rest of all living life in Earth-185.
== Background ==
Deston was born to Samson and Alison Atacorn, he grew up rather spiteful and angry, a reflection of his awful town. When he was young, he left his parents and headed as far away from them as he could. He hardly remembers their names at this point. Deston arrived at the Ariean camp, where he was quickly taken in. He proved himself to be a great hunter and eventually climbed the ranks to become the Ruler.
During this time, he met Arin Burke, the two became partners soon. Deston hoped to have a son that would continue running the tribe when he stepped down, but Arin gave him a daughter. In a rage, Deston strangled Arin to death in front of his daughter. He waited months to name the child, deciding on Faron, Arin's failure.
