Summary
The Blind Baker is one of Eos most popular Messengers. Patron of travellers, refugees, lost children and cooks of all kinds, he is "the Lamp in the Dark that heralds the return of the King of Light". He is honoured in roadside shrines and kitchen altars, he is spoken of in scripture and in children's tales, and he has been in countless movies, plays, novels, comics, and songs.
But who is he? What are his origins? The Cosmogony teaches that the King of Light was raised up by the Astrals to watch over the Star so that never again would Eos be plunged into darkness. Who, then, was this herald-turned-Messenger? Who was the man who was raised up to divinity, and what did he do to deserve it?
