Barois dhal Baroise Smiailgesinneadha

Barois dhal Baroise Smiailgesinneadha, b 2478, Bhiaruanaive, Selthir, Archduchy of Asbardy; d 2551; Tintamburel, Heart-of-Asbardy, Archduchy of Asbardy. died ~73. Asbardian polytheologian who theorized that the gods are anthropomorphic idealizations of energetic states of consciousness, Barois dhal Baroise wrote three texts which explained his controversial beliefs, Spiritual Geometry 2509, Pantheon of the Human Heart 2517, and Flute-Hearer of the Gods 2533. Smialgesinneadha was a long-time lecturer at the Archguild School of Bryndyd and also visiting lecturer at the Heliotheological School of Amyrn. Raised in the Arathracian Church, he was a deeply religious man and believed that understanding the nature of spirituality would help reconcile the various cults and religions of Asdar. He wrote Flute-Hearer of the Gods later in his life as a novelization to help demonstrate the nature of the spiritual manifestation of the divine in the life of Saint Ithraig of Bantaffer. The novel depicts the spiritual manifestations of Skiánthra, Aireánnau Mother of the Folk, and the god Arathrax, among others to the Saint. Of his four major books, it is the only one that was not written in Classical Yophenthean, but in Asbardian.

Smiailgesinneadha wanted to be an Arathracian Knight in his early twenties, but his father, an Arathracian Priest, wanted him to follow in his footsteps. Eventually, he studied at Arathracian Gymnasium and decided to pursue theology as a professor rather than a priest. His first work, Devotion like Ithraig, 2502, about the life of Saint Ithraig of Bantaffer, was acclaimed by lay Arathracians and the archguild school as a great work.
