Roku

The primordial of the heart. Roku resides in Kiristym, and appears as a great beast with an avian head, with feathers made of decayed leaves. Roku lives at the large, frozen lake on Kiristym.

Roku, like the other primordials, granted the “heart” to those who lived in Simuhay but were not the Mana, Caeloraans, or Solarions. However, when speaking about Lycians and others similar to them, Roku did not claim them as his children despite this fact.

“I’ve seen a god in the flesh before. Fuck, I’ve seen a dead god. I’ve seen a lot more divinity than I ever expected…and Roku felt nothing like any of them. The Primordials…kinda scare me,” - Excerpt from Xena’s journal
