“ They are here... they are... here! Aonir, send down your light... drive the shadows away... ”
— Castagir about the shadows
Castagir is a scholar with a focus on researching the supernatural, primarily the Shadows. His research of the otherworldly creatures has driven him to the point of paranoia - perennially afraid of death by their hand, just like his master.
Battle for Fiara
Castagir and the Phoenix Bearer first met in Greyfell. Seeing that the man was frightened by something, she approached him, upon which he explained to her the Shadows and the danger they bring with them.
He urged the Rune Warrior to heed his warning and mentioned a special ring his master had once spoken of, yet lamented the fact that he took that knowledge with him to the grave. The Phoenix Bearer later found that ring, also known as the Shadow Ring, in the Northern Windwall Mountains. She showed it to Castagir, but the ring was powerless as is, hence he sent her to seek out Rigour Mortis for further guidance.
She would eventually return with the ring revived to its full power. Finally having the means to see and fight the Shadows, Castagir told her to fight them wherever she can. During one such encounter, she obtained the Shadow Manifesto which she then presented to the mage. From the book, Castagir was able to learn how the shadows arrived on Eo and described a place in an old fortress of light. The Rune Warrior investigated this clue and eventually found a small Shadow Crystal in the Howling Mounds.
Castagig researched the peculiar gem and concluded that it's likely but a fragment of something much bigger, but this was where their paths separated. As a parting gift and as proof of his research bearing fruit, he gifted the Phoenix Bearer a special belt made of silver that would allow her to use the Shadows to protect herself.
The Eternal Song
Years after, Castagir would once again join forces with a Rune Warrior - an individual known as The Messenger - in his quest to prevent an ancient prophecy by the famous bard Angar Arandir. As the prophecy goes, the Shadows would be released and Eo would plummet into an eternal night.
Castagir worked together with the Rune Warrior and Nightsong to decipher the clues of said prophecy, yet they failed to realise that they were fulfilling it in the process, eventually granting the Shadows access to Eo and paving the way for the events of the Shadow Wars in the future.
Trivia
- During the events of the Eternal song, Castagir partakes in the events that serve as the prequel story and catalyst to SpellForce 2: Shadow Wars.
