Varethis’Auren Kel’varesh

Alias: Auren, The Last Emperor, The Dreamer of Ascension
Era: Late Conquest → Fracture (~2,200–1,500 Years Before Modern Geba)
Affiliation: Geban Empire

From a young age, it was clear to Emperor Ashan’Kael Varethis that Auren would ascend. He was not chosen out of convenience, but because his mind carried a clarity and conviction the Empire had never seen before. His brother, Prince Varethis’Daer Venar, stood beside him—not in rivalry, but in reverence—possessing the technical brilliance needed to manifest Auren’s ideals. Together, they forged the closest Geba ever came to true, lasting stability. Auren’s reforms sought to elevate the Engineered not as instruments, but as citizens—granting them names, rights, and futures. He dreamed of spacefaring advancement, biological evolution, and a post-imperial world bound by peace. But the Empire, unwilling to change, turned against him. Betrayed from within, Auren was assassinated. His death shattered the throne and ignited the Fracture.

About Vesselborn

Vesselborn is a continuity — The planetary saga of collapse, restructure, and existential endurance.

Forged in exile, carried by discipline, and structured through memory, Vesselborn is the living archive of The Geban Chronicle — a vast narrative that spans generations, cultures, and ideologies. It is a world, a story, a warning, and a weapon.

Founded by Christopher Jaepheth Cuby, Vesselborn reflects a simple belief: that legacy is not inherited — it is constructed.

To preserve what would otherwise be erased.

This is structured myth — rooted in consequence, shaped by sorrow, and held together by order.

This is not a product line.
It is not a pitch.
It is a sovereign structure — built to outlast trends, and perhaps even its maker.

Vesselborn exists in layers.

For the curious, it is a compelling world.
For the committed, it is a philosophy.
For the chosen, it is remembrance.

This is Geba.
It did not begin in fire.
It began in silence.
And it has not yet ended.
