Father Vinland

Lore

Like Maiden Astraea and his two children, Selen and Garl, Father Vinland hailed from the Western Highlands which appears to be where the capitol city of the Church is located. It is revealed by Selen Vinland that he has recently died as she sought Garl out to pass on his last words as well as their father's ring of devout prayer. Rings of devout prayer are only given out to those of high-standing in the Church which means Father Vinland was likely a Saint (like Urbain who also has a ring) or a high-ranking cleric. The extravagant armor and weapons possessed by his children indicates either that he comes from a wealthy background or has some control over the coffers of the Church.

Theories

Origin of His Name

+ Expand Theory

If Selen Vinland refers to the Goddess of the Moon, Selene and Garl Vinland refers to Helios, The God of the Son and brother of Selene; then that would make Father Vinland Hyperion. Hyperion was one of the twelve Titans of Ancient Greece and the father of the Gods Selene, Eos, and Helios. While he was called the "lord of light" and the "titan of the east," his son Helios is the physical incarnation of the sun. In later writings Hyperion became known as the "God of Watchfulness and Wisdom."
