Beneath the silhouetted boughs of Emris forest, close to the watchful eye of Glagol Academy, resides Omu, a figure of quiet strength with a history as unique as the pattern of whorls and ridges that grace her four horns.

Born to the once sprawling but now extinct monastic order, The Cult of Eternal, she is a testament to times long past and traditions discarded. The order, a serene congregation of satyrs secluded from the rest of society in the icy crags of Mount Norune, had prided themselves on their detached existence, delving into knowledge and attaining transcendence.

Omu's mother, a figure of stoic silence and soft warmth was a revered figure in the order, a keeper of scrolls. Her father, a resilient pillar of quiet wisdom, was the keeper of the Cult's sacred flame. They bestowed upon her the name "Omu," meaning "peaceful wisdom." While the stoic tranquility of her monkish past molded her early years, the fiery intensity of her martial arts training shaped her later life.

Respected within the confines of Glagol, Omu grew from a disciplined monk to an esteemed mentor. Her lessons transcended the boundaries of martial arts; they ventured into the vast domains of world history and theology, subtly hinting at her monastic upbringing. She carried the weight of her heritage, not as a burden, but as a medallion of pride, her goat legs stepping forward in unison with the rhythm of progressive thought.

Omu, despite her monkish upbringing, is not one to shun companionship. She shares an unbreakable bond with Morwen, a fellow martial arts mentor at Glagol Academy, and a patient listener to all her hushed histories. They share a friendship that speaks of unwritten promises and shared cups of honeymead underneath the twinkling stars.

Omu has known no marriage and voes to not seek one. A peculiar fear creeps into her heart, the fear of losing herself, her lineage's last living remnant, in the eyes of another. She cherishes her identity, embraces her solitude and relishes in her self-defined freedom.

“Greatest strength is in acceptance, not defiance,” Omu likes to declare in her low, ambient voice.

Her weapon of choice, a peculiarly Earthling artifact — a pen, is mightier than any sword, when she chooses to unsheathe it. She diligently pens down her dreams every dawn, a practice that she claims bridges her existence between reality and fantasy, creating a space where she is more than just the last monk from The Cult of Eternal.

Omu lives her life imbued with peaceful wisdom, a testament to her name and her past. In this present world full of rushed decisions and fast-paced lives, she is a symbol of tranquility, a beacon for those lost in the flurry, and a mentor whose teachings transcend the constraints of time and ego. The incredible tale of the once-monk, now academician — Omu, is a fantasy intertwined with reality, a remarkable story that shapes, surprises and inspires its readers.
