Aenc Thon, Lord of the Lengthsome Gait
“The leader of the Fuath, capable of altering their form with a shift in the tenor of their voice or the strum of their lyre. Whilst prone to mischievousness, Aenc Thon is fiercely loyal to the faerie king, and leapt to Norvrandt's defense when it was under threat from a cadre of spectral heroes summoned forth from other worlds.
— Encyclopaedia Eorzea Volume III, p. 209

Lore
“"Give me a crescendo! Give me a fortissimo!"
It is yet debated whether "Lord of the Lingering Gaze" or "Lord of the Lengthsome Gait" better describes the leader of the water-bound Fuath, but all agree that Aenc Thon's magical prowess is formidable. The idiosyncratic nature of the Fuath seems to bespeak a lack of unity, but unified they are in their awe at Aenc Thon's magnificent castle of illusion, Dohn Mheg—and the numerous perilous traps therein. When they are not causing others to literally prostrate themselves in wonder, Aenc Thon is dreaming of becoming a grown-up as mortals do, very occasionally bending their glamours to gleefully achieve a similar effect for themself. It is said they at times add a stringed instrument as an appendage, leaving scholars to assume their adult persona is a musician of some sort. In truth, Aenc Thon is as old as the flick of a disappearing tail—as to what that means, only the fae know.
