Dervan

Dervan du Allobar is a former soldier and present historian under the employ of the Pelenaut in Pelemyn. Pelenaut Rollend reassigned Dervan to work with Fintan as he gives his daily performances to Survivor Field. On the surface, this is so that Dervan can record these important stories for historical purposes. The morning following each of Fintan's performances, Dervan and he enjoy a breakfast while Dervan asks clarifying questions about the stories Fintan just told the day before, for historical accuracy. Other topics related to each of the characters' past and the state of the world are also frequently talked about.

Beyond the need for historical accuracy, Pelenaut Rollend believes that Fintan is a spy sent by the Triune Council to prepare for an invasion and he wants Dervan to keep an eye on him. Rollend believes that Dervan may have some innate talent for intrigue or at least may have picked up a few tricks from his late wife, Sarena.
