Mystery of the (Earthen) Druids

I believe it is implied that “The Keeper” from the Cruelty of Dornic play is Archaedes.

The vassal of life disguises treachery. Beware the eyes of green.

Seems to line up reasonably well with Freya serving Eonar who went against Aman’thul re: Elun’Ahir, and “verdant eyes” is pretty on the nose.

Finally got around to revisiting the Dawn Interface in the Earthen starting area, the Hall of Awakening.

Dawn Interface
->Tell me about the Freysworn
“Freysworn designation is not formally recognized by the Stonevault Repository. Advisory Override has been enabled. Do you wish to input another inquiry?”
->“I wish to bypass all advisory overrides that have been enabled.”
"Advisory override successful.
Archived information reveals that the Freysworn were unofficially designated with the terraforming of Sector AR-938’s aqueducts during the initial construction of Site 0.
Following the completion of the Stonevault, the Freysworn were eventually deemed redundant and recalled to the Hall of Awakening for stasis.
Due to their unregistered calibrations, the original recalled Freysworn were not reassigned and have remained within the Stonevault until the Machines recent reawakening.
Subsequent reports of Freysworn existing on the surface over the course of history can be attributed to a vulnerable group of earthen exposed to a data breach in the form of unsanctioned edicts.

That is specifically the Freysworn entry within the little lore hub.

so it sounds like they’re basically stonewards tasked with one of freya’s lil fun side projects. based on this rebellious streak the life-attuned titan and her keeper seem to have, maybe they basically take up the frost dragon’s (can’t even remember her name lol) role for when we eventually have to fight the titans?

Coreway, Khaz’algar, Dornagal, etc are built ontop of the the remains of the first world tree that the head titan tore out but whose roots are still found underneath. Pretty sure the book mentioning it in the emerald dream said that Eonar charged Freya with watching over the site, so Freya probably programmed the Freysworn edict into the local Earthen on the down low.

The Harronir are watching the bottom portion of the roots while the Freysworn are making sure the Isle of Dorn’s plantlife growing out of the top portions are doing good.
