“¡Ay, brillante, se han llevado a nuestro rey! Esos parshmenios. Esos bárbaros. Esos… esos monstruos. ”
—Gereh a Navani[3]
Gereh es un mayordomo doméstico en el Palacio de Kholinar, en Roshar.[3] Un agente que trabaja para no se sabe qué personas, Gereh es un feruquimista y tiene un aviar rojo.[4][2] Vigilaba específicamente a Dalinar Kholin.[2] Después de retirarse de su papel como mayordomo, vivió en Urithiru hasta que fue asesinado por Mraize.[1] No está claro si Gereh es su nombre real o un alias.
Apariencia
Para cuando trabajaba como mayordomo en Kholinar, Gereh tenía barba blanca y estaba frágil.[3] Lleva múltiples anillos en sus dedos, presumiblemente los usa como mentes de metal. De vez en cuando juega nerviosamente con estos anillos. También altera ligeramente su apariencia de una manera desconocida, haciéndose parecer como si tuviese los pliegues epicánticos comunes en muchos humanos en Roshar.[1]
Atributos y habilidades
Gereh era un feruquimista con un conjunto de habilidades desconocido.[4][2] También podía ocultar eficazmente algunas de sus características físicas que lo hacían destacar como una persona de descendencia no roshariana.[1] Gereh también había llegado a poseer un aviar rojo. Los poderes otorgados por el aviar son habilidades mentales desconocidas.[5] El pájaro inteligente es muy leal al hombre y capaz de sentir la ubicación de Gereh desde la distancia.[5]
Historia
Mayordomo en Kholinar
Nothing is known of Gereh's early life, or his planet of birth, but he worked long enough as steward in the Kholinar palace to be known as a fixture there,[3] becoming a notable, if minor functionary.[1] While Gereh's apparent profession was steward, he also served as an agent for an unknown master,[4] watching over House Kholin.[2] It is likely that in the year 1167, Gereh became aware of Axindweth, a Terriswoman agent working for Odium in the Kholinar palace. He turned Gavilar against her and forced her to flee the planet.[4]
Shortly thereafter, on the night of the treaty signing celebration with the listeners, Gereh approached Queen Navani Kholin in the palace gardens prior to feast to inform her that Brightlord Rine Hatham was expecting an audience with Gavilar to discuss border disputes and the king was nowhere to be found.[3] He then led Navani to Hatham. Later that night, Navani found a grief-stricken Gereh and after she took his hand he informed her of Gavilar's assassination, although she did not immediately believe he was telling the truth. Gereh seemed deeply distraught by Gavilar's death, crying and shaking in sorrow.
Jubilación y fallecimiento
By 1175 Gereh seemed to have retired from active duty in the palace.[1] He came to live in Urithiru with many of the other displaced Alethi and lived a quiet life where he was visited occasionally by Lift, who enjoyed looking in on the elderly. Just prior to the occupation of Urithiru by the Fused, Gereh's Aviar was away from Gereh for unknown reasons. He was attacked by Mraize in his rooms and was killed by a knife wound to the chest. He was either attacked while he was without his metalminds, or they were stripped from his body by Mraize after his death. The modifications that Gereh had made to the appearance of his eyes also vanished after his death. Gereh's Aviar had been waylaid by Mraize's Aviar, but it managed to return to Gereh's rooms with Lift's help to find the man's body and mourn over it. Mraize, who had been waiting, pursued Lift out of Gereh's rooms and caught her.
