A will-o-the-wisp created by Guiding Light "Celestine". He began to develop into something more as she continued to feed him Aether. Eventually, he became a entity in his own right. For many years, he worked by the side of Guiding Light to guide mortals into and, if they were deemed "ones we cannot touch" , out of the Fog.
As the years passed, he grew into an individual that wished to exist outside of the purpose for which he was made. Geal chose to leave the Fog after much arguing with his progenitor. He wandered the lands of Coerthas in search of a path of his own making.
