Dalsen

Lord Dalsen is the feudal lord of Grahd.

Personality
Dalsen appears to be honorable man who shows genuine gratitude towards those who he is indebt to. Unique among humans, Dalsen harbors none of the xenophobia towards elves, and instead sees them in a more positive light as he grew up with stories of how elves had helped his forefather.

Background
Dalsen was born in the human town of Grahd, where his family has ruled the area for at least four generations. In his youth he was told stories that in his great-grandfather's time that elves had once roamed the forests outside Grahd. In those stories were tales of how the elves would come to the aid of humans in need of assistance. One of those people that the elves saved was Dalsen's great-grandfather.

He is the father of Lefit and Lyot Dalsen du Grahd.

Light Novel Volume 03
Lord Dalsen was alerted by his retainers that his sons were found thanks to two travelers. Upon meeting his two heirs, the man slammed his fists in their heads for their idiocy in going outside the perimeter of town when there was an ongoing issue. Dalsen learning that the two travelers, Arc and Ariane, had saved his sons from a Fanged Boar and that Arc was a knight offered him a job. The offer was initially declined as he was already i the service of Ariane. Though learning that the pair were trying to get to the nearest town of the Holy East Revlon Empire, the feudal lord told them that the road there was overrun by ogres. As it turns out the previous that Dalsen was trying to resolve was eliminating the ogres. Seeing Arc was capable in killing monsters, he requested his aid in taking care of the ogres.

In their skirmish with the ogres, Lord Dalsen discovered that Ariane was an elf, though he made it clear that he was not distrust of her, but in fact curious and explained his family's tales of elves that once lived near Grahd. Still feeling indebt for Ariane and Arc saving his children, the noble offered them money to compensate, though Ariane instead asked him to pass on his high regard for elves to his children and grandchildren.
