Evret Hayle was Queen Levana's late husband and Winter Hayle's father. His first wife, Solstice Hayle, died due to maternal mortality.
History[]
Evret was a royal guard in King Marrok's personal entourage when Levana was eight and she soon became obsessed with him. Evret was 12 years her senior as he was 27 when Levana was 15. He was kind with Levana though he was married to and devoted to Solstice, a seamstress who died giving birth to their child. Levana manipulated Evret by taking on Solstice's appearance and forced Evret to wed her. He never loved her, but did care for her to some degree and only ever thought of her as a friend. When Levana had revealed herself to Evret without glamour, he was shocked. Afterwards, Levana ordered the former head thaumaturge, Joshua Haddon, to stab Evret to death. Levana was deeply saddened by this and killed the thaumaturge but moved on quickly so as to marry Prince Kaito of the Eastern Commonwealth and conquer Earth. However, she secretly promised herself that Evret would always be her only love by wearing her wedding ring.
Levana made a deal with former Head Thaumaturge Haddon: if Haddon would kill Evret, she would marry him and crown him king of Luna. Yet, Levana betrayed him and stabbed the thaumaturge in the chest.
Characteristics[]
Physical Attributes[]
Evret had dark brown skin, curly brown hair and a muscled physique. He had bright eyes with emerald and gray flecks in the irises.
Personality[]
Evret was a kind and polite man who was fully dedicated to his wife, Solstice Hayle. He attempted to resign from guard duties after Solstice died, but Channary refused. Evret was subsequently manipulated by Levana who took on Solstice's appearance for the duration of their marriage. Although Evret did not love Levana, he presented her with gifts out of sympathy and protected her from Haddon the night he died. He loved his daughter, Winter, so much so that his last words were "Promise, my Queen. Promise you'll take care of her."
Relationships[]
Solstice Hayle[]
Solstice Hayle was Evret's first wife. They loved each other immensely and supported one another. Evret was distraught when Solstice died giving birth to their daughter. He then decided to name their child "Winter" as she was born on the winter solstice. He was protective of Solstice and was entirely devoted to her, never being tempted by Levana's ploys to foil their marriage. Levana was extremely jealous of her and her beauty.
Levana Blackburn[]
Levana was Evret's second wife. Evret noticed her feelings, however, and made sure to avoid the topic of romance when around her. Levana was aware of their age and status differences, but wanted to make a romantic relationship work. She was incredibly jealous when she heard of Evret's marriage with Solstice and saw to it that she would never be defeated by her. She had been so engulfed in envy that she decided to imitate Solstice's appearance following her death, figuratively forcing Evret into marriage. Evret evidently pitied Levana and felt manipulated in their marriage. However, Levana did trust Evret as he was the only Lunar she had ever shown her true appearance to. As she knew Emperor Rikan would be a more advantageous match, Levana made a deal with the former Head Thaumaturge, Joshua Haddon, to kill Evret so long as she made Haddon her new husband. Upon Evret's death, Levana became distraught, stabbing Haddon in the chest with a dagger and killing him. She deeply regretted having Evret assassinated and honored her late husband by wearing her wedding ring.
Winter Hayle[]
Evret loved his daughter very much and he had a blatantly better relationship with Winter than with Levana. Winter honored her father and knew him very well despite his early death. She loved him so much that her first hallucination from Lunar Sickness was of her father calling to her.
