Saunt Bly

Overview

Saunt Bly is a revered figure in the mathic tradition, closely tied to Bly’s Butte and to observing lore connected with the Concent of Saunt Edhar. Earlier accounts within community records associate him with work in finite group theorics.

Roles and Actions

• Traditions describe Bly spending time near Bly’s Butte among local slines, influencing their habits; some versions claim those slines later turned on him. Members of the Samble community explicitly reject the sensational “liver” tale as a slander against them.
• Multiple sources state that Bly was Thrown Back; reasons for this vary by account and are not agreed upon.

Relationships

• Samble and its ark: Residents at Samble identify their community’s lineage with Bly, say their faith was founded by him, and report preserving his notebooks. They emphasize that, by their reading, Bly was not a Deolater.
• Warden of Heaven: Adherents of the Warden of Heaven present a contrasting view, crediting Bly as a prophet who “proved” the existence of God and was then Thrown Back; they frame this in opposition to the maths. These claims are reported in-character and remain disputed.

Current Status

Deceased; honored as a saunt. His legacy endures in the butte that bears his name and in ongoing references across mathic and extramuros traditions.
