Aeor

**Aeor** is the protector and guardian of Rivendell and one of the great stags, twin stag gods that ruled the world together. He never appears in a physical form only representing himself with idols and gifts. Aeor is also one of the only gods to have not gone into slumber after ending the first corruption.

## Appearance

Aeor is never truly seen, a statue built of the god may give a glimpse of what this stag may have looked like. The statue has a gray-fur covered body, black nose, and white horns accented with gold. A gift given by the stag to King Scott my also give a clue to his appearance. Golden antlers reminiscent to the ones on the statue was the gift given to Scott.

## History

### Pre-Season One

After the kingdom of Rivendell was created, Aeor and Exor, the great twin stags, became important deities to the elves worshiped by many. Over time however Aeor became favored by the elves enraging Exor who had always been of equal status to Aeor. The two grew cold and apart and thus so did their followers. Exor's beliefs changed too, becoming cruel, he would sacrifice weak people to the horror of the Aeor. Aeor banished Exor but that didn't stop him and his followers. They conquered vast lands, killing, and committing atrocities. Tired of this Aeor sealed away Exor into a mountain with all his followers. His followers made temples and structures in the mountains but began to die off.

Many years later after the stories of the twins became stories a group of twins found the cave and explored it, Cohnall, the elder, going deep into the cave. Cohnall would hear voices from Exor promising riches and power. One day when Alinar, the younger, became part of the council, he declared the banishment of Cohnall much to the pleasure of the commonfolk. This didn't stop Cohnall from attacking and killing the people of Rivendell. Tired of this Alinar faced him deep in the mountain and a battle broke out. Fueled by both Exor and Aeor they battled, Aeor used much of his power through Alinar to open a portal, getting rid of Exor and Cohnall. With what little power remaining, Aeor wiped the memories of all who remembered Cohnall, the memory of the two brothers slowly faded.

### Season One

The stories of Aeor and Exor were still an important tradition in Rivendell, however Aeor was worshiped and praised by all elves in the kingdom.

During the reign of King Scott, he designed a statue to Aeor. Sometime later Scott discovered The Clash of the Great Stags in a cave revealing the long history between Exor and Aeor. This led him to the conclusion that the dragon has been holding Exor's power back.

## Speculation

In Scott's 6th episode after building the Enchanting Tower he discusses how the large green crystal is what is providing magic to land and that is why the area super overgrown. If Aeor is the protector and guardian of Rivendell then he must have some connection to the large green crystal that is providing magic to the land.

In Scott's 11th episode he calls his new tools, "Magic tools" and if the crystal is what is providing magic to Rivendell and by extension Aeor then his magic tools must have a connection to Aeor.

In Scott's 14th episode we see his large green crystal get corrupted, and we see that the statue is possibly protecting the main portion of Rivendell from getting corrupted so that could mean that Aeor and the crystal are possibly different entities that both have connections to Rivendell. The crystal could also very well be something that comes from Aeor because it has a very similar style to the corrupted crystals that float over a corrupted area and as we know Aeor and Exor are deeply connected.

In Scott's 17th episode we see Aeor write in scripture about a super-crop (dubbed super-carrot) while giving Scott a golden carrot which he plants and by the magic of Aeor it grows to give food supply to Rivendell, this shows how it is related to the nature of the empire and therefore the large green crystal that is providing magic to the land. The super-carrot also has gold in it which is a material used many times to represent Aeor. This carrot also has Aeor's power presumably imbued in it because it can ward off his corruption.
