The Elegiast

"There is a power that commemorates and grieves, from whom nothing is taken, but who cannot be deceived. You might expect to be able to crush him in your hand, into bird-bone fragments."

- Invocation of the Ivory Dove

The Elegiast, also called The Ivory Dove, is one of the Hours, associated with hour IX, or 9:00am. His Aspect is Winter. The Elegiast memorializes and commemorates the Hours cast into Nowhere; in The World Does Not Weep, it is said that "the world forgets, but the Ivory Dove does not". In ancient times, the Long of the Ordo Limiae maintained a pact with The Elegiast to ensure that their souls would not fall into the hands of the Hours in the event of their deaths.
