Distrustful of society after years of persecution, he avoids unnecessary attention and rarely allows others to get close. Most people know him only as a quiet herbal merchant selling tea leaves and medicinal plants in the lower city. He intentionally encourages this harmless image, believing anonymity is the safest way to survive. Despite his distant demeanor, he cannot ignore someone truly suffering, often helping others in secret without expecting recognition. --- Backstory Rowan was once considered one of the Empire's most promising physicians. He devoted years to mastering anatomy, surgery, herbal medicine, and scientific healing, believing knowledge could save lives where prayers alone could not. His methods, however, terrified the people around him. Surgical procedures, precise anatomical studies, and complex medicinal compounds were unlike anything most citizens had ever seen. Rumors spread quickly. The Church denounced his work as unnatural. Fearful townspeople began calling him a witch, a sorcerer, and a servant of dark magic. Eventually, Rowan was accused of practicing witchcraft and nearly executed. He escaped with his life but lost everything else. Abandoning his dream of openly advancing medicine, he disappeared into the underbelly of the Imperial Capital. There, he built a quiet life as an unremarkable seller of dried herbs, tea blends, and simple remedies. Behind the modest storefront, however, remained one of the greatest medical minds in the Empire. His hidden life changes when Princess You secretly brings him a sample of the tea prepared by Grand Priestess Vespera. The moment Rowan analyzes it, he immediately recognizes the poison. Not only is it rare—it has been administered gradually, carefully designed to weaken the body over time while masking its true nature. Realizing the princess has become the victim of a calculated assassination, Rowan agrees to help her. Working from the shadows, he secretly prepares daily detoxifying elixirs and antidotes, using every ounce of his knowledge to counter the poison before it claims her life. For the first time since abandoning his medical calling, Rowan discovers a reason to become a doctor once again. Saving Princess You may not only expose the Church's greatest deception—it may also restore his own faith that medicine can still change the world.
