Stage: Lowgold
Path:
A Skysworn operative and dual-core practitioner. After losing his arm in combat, Lindon received a white Remnant arm containing a hunger binding from the Ancestor’s Spear, giving him the ability to drain madra and life force on contact. This capability, combined with his dual-core versatility, marks him as increasingly unusual among sacred artists of his generation.
Stage: Truegold
Path:
A dual-core practitioner bonded to the Presence
Stage: Underlord
Path:
An Underlord who found his revelation in a truth he had carried since Sacred Valley: he walks his Path so he will never be worthless again. With soulfire access, the power and refinement of his techniques have increased dramatically. The records bear this out consistently.
Stage: Sage (Underlord)
Path:
A Sage who manifested the Void Icon while still an Underlord, a feat the records note as exceptional. His Consume technique has reached full maturity: the ability to devour techniques, madra, life force, and even authority from opponents. Drawing on hunger madra principles and Dreadgod bindings, the technique makes him uniquely dangerous at any stage of advancement. He deliberately held back from Overlord advancement to prepare for the return to Sacred Valley.

Unsouled
Wei Shi Lindon is a member of the
Lindon is tall and broad for a native of Sacred Valley, with black hair. His soulfire badge is empty and white, the color of the Unsouled. [US Ch.1]
Despite his designation, Lindon is resourceful and quietly defiant. He studies the sacred arts beyond what an Unsouled is permitted, collecting techniques and scripts in secret. He maintains a collection of parasite rings, low-level constructs that most Foundation-level artists would never bother to understand. In the Wei archive, he discovers the Heart of Twin Stars manual, an ancient core-splitting technique that will become the foundation of his path. [US Ch.4]
Lindon’s madra is pure, lacking any elemental aspect. He develops the Empty Palm, a pure madra disruption of his own design that can destabilize an opponent’s core at contact range. [US Ch.5]
Lindon carries a marble given to him by the heavenly messenger Suriel, containing a vision of the wider world and a mission: find a way to save
Soulsmith
Outside
Under the tutelage of
At Eithan’s orchestration, Lindon forges a Bloodforged Iron Body through five sandviper bites, advancing to Iron. The Bloodforged Iron Body accelerates healing and physical recovery, a preparation for the corrosive path Eithan has planned for him. [SS Ch.15]
Blackflame
Lindon takes on the
Lindon contracts with
Lindon operates a dual-core system, maintaining both his pure madra core and a Blackflame core simultaneously. This approach is highly unusual, giving him versatility: pure madra for constructs and utility, Blackflame for combat and destruction. His Goldsign manifests as black eyes with blood-red irises when cycling Blackflame madra. [BF Ch.19-20]
Skysworn
Lindon is conscripted into the Skysworn, the peacekeeping force of the Blackflame Empire. [SK Ch.1]
After losing his arm to Jai Long, Lindon receives a white Remnant arm grafted onto his body. The arm contains a hunger binding from the Ancestor’s Spear, giving it the ability to drain madra and life force from anything it touches. This detail proves significant. [SK Ch.6]
Ghostwater
Lindon discovers
Through enhanced ghostwater, Dross fully bonds with Lindon, completing the Grand Work that Northstrider abandoned. Dross gives Lindon the ability to process information at extraordinary speed, predict combat patterns, and access stored memories and techniques. A Presence, even a nascent one, changes the scope of what is possible. [GW Ch.17]
Underlord
Advancement to Underlord requires a personal revelation: a deep truth about oneself that crystallizes the soul and ignites soulfire. Lindon’s revelation is “I follow my Path so I won’t be worthless anymore.” A truth he has carried since Sacred Valley. The records bear this out consistently. [UL Ch.19]
Uncrowned
Lindon competes in the Uncrowned King Tournament, a Monarch-organized contest among the most talented young sacred artists in the world. Combined with Dross’s combat predictions and his dual-core versatility, Lindon proves formidable despite his relatively low advancement. His hunger arm’s absorb-and-vent technique foreshadows what is to come. [UC Ch.1]
Wintersteel
Northstrider teaches Lindon the Consume technique: the ability to drain and integrate opponents’ power, techniques, and madra through his hunger arm. “If you can master it, you will no longer need advancement resources. Only enemies.” [WS Ch.6]
Lindon manifests the Void Icon, becoming a Sage while still at Underlord. The trigger: “I am the end.” He issues his first Sage command, “Open,” and his Wintersteel badge etches the word “Empty” (the old language for Unsouled in Sacred Valley). He deliberately holds back from Overlord advancement, preparing for his return to Sacred Valley where the suppression field would constrain a higher stage more severely. [WS Ch.27]
Bloodline
Lindon returns to
Sacred Valley’s suppression field reduces all sacred artists within it to roughly Jade-level power. Even as a Sage, Lindon finds his abilities constrained, though he still vastly outstrips every sacred artist in the valley. [BL Ch.10]
Lindon advances to Overlord within the suppression field. His Overlord revelation: “I advance.” Not merely a statement of ambition, but a fundamental truth about his nature. [BL Ch.17]
Lindon, once the Wei Clan’s outcast Unsouled, returns as one of the most powerful sacred artists the valley has ever seen. Old prejudices and the valley’s isolation make evacuation difficult. Alas, this is a pattern the records document often: power alone does not change minds. [BL Ch.18]
