View source for Manosque Celadon

Manosque Celadon was a Dynast of the early Scarlet Empire, in the years after the Great Contagion. Haunted by dreams of the suffering during the [[Great Contagion]], Celadon became widely known for his medical skills, pioneering approaches that are still in use by the '''Doctors Walking Barefoot in the Steps of [[Sextes Jylis]]''' within the [[Benevolent Stewards of Health and Utility]]. Celadon refused monetary payment for his work, instead asking that those he helped plant a single [[Apricot]] tree. His residence soon became surrounded by such trees, a veritable orchard forest. 



Celadon was put to death in the purges following the rebellion of his brother [[Manosque Viridian|Viridian]], and his name was purged from all Imperial records. However, his influence persists even without his name, apricot imagery a poetic reference for physicians, (even the common folk often using the term ‘apricot forest’ for the Realm’s hospitals), and the centuries-old remnants of his orchards still existing on the estate of the [[Garden of Bright Apricots]] in [[Pangu]].
