Elucina was a String Person and the eighteenth and final Rebel of String to rebel against the Threadmakers and win freedom for her people from the Threadmakers.

Appearance

Elucina is a beautiful, war-torn woman, whose build suggests that she would be suited for dancing on the stage. Her body is sewn-up in various places, which would resemble scars on a regular person.

Personality

Elucina is kind, but fierce. She is also modest, as she would contend to Erin that she was the eighteenth to rebel, and asked her to remember the names of the first seventeen. In legend, she also apparently objected to having a holiday named after her. She dislikes when people are enslaved or put in chains and hates Roshal with a passion. She also does not care for the caste system of the String People and believes it to be meaningless. Even after freeing her people, Elucina is still committed to the idea of fighting for freedom.

Background

Elucina was the eighteenth String Person to rebel, though she was the first to succeed and helped kill the Threadmakers. She would live for over two thousand years, were she wuold still keep rebelling and fight for other imprisoned folk, even killing some of her folk, like royal String People who enslaved others, before being killed by being blasted apart.

Before her death the String Folk wanted to use her name to create a holiday for the day they won their freedom, but Elucina apparently objected to a day named after her. As such, they simply rearranged her name to Cinaelu. Thus, when they call Cinaelu, what they actually say is, ‘Elucina’s weave be yours’, which mean freedom. Originally it was supposed to be about the freedom to create yourself, as back then, even face and form were not for String Golems to decide.

It was also to remind those those who make chains, of spells, of metal or of the mind quake on this day. It was meant for the captors to give their enslaved captive free rein for a single day. A limited, very narrow set of freedoms. Yet freedom nonetheless. But very few of the captors would celebrate it as sometimes, the enslaved would turn the generosity back and use the loopholes in an errant command or order to enact terrible vengeance. So most wouldn’t have dared, even then.

Over time everyone but a few remembered the true purpose for this day, like Djinni who lived in those days. By now it was just about the String Folk celebrating victory over the Threadmakers and other species who wanted to keep them as slaves, not freedom, to which beyond the grave, Elucina herself would be displeased for what now it represents and what her people had become.

To add insult to injury, Roshal would create their own holiday, Leciaun, which only they truly celebrate, especially in slave caravans. Celebrated a few days after Cinaelu, it is a day when the Slave Guards can do what they want to the Slaves. Everyone is fair game—everyone but the [Slaves] most favoured by the Slave Masters. The Slave Guards can’t permanently damage anything, but beyond that they’re free to do Anything.

Quotes

• (To Erin) “Have you something entertaining to ask me, Erin Solstice? You know my name and that of the others. If you were alive when I was, I hope I would have stopped by your inn.”
• (To Erin, for the living) “Be kinder to each other. We were all slaves of cloth, once. What we were made of never mattered. I don’t know when they changed.”
• (To Igheriz) “Do you know me, little man?”
• (To everyone) “Even at the end of the world, I will not join hands with those who enslave others. If all will fade away—I will see Roshal die first, screaming. Never again! CHARGE.”
• (To Cauwine) “I will not be a prisoner to whatever you are, even if what you show me is true. I am the Rebel of String. I will never be bound again.”
