Reylon was an unassuming village herbalist on the farmlands between [[St. Niam]] and [[Simonville]]. His notebooks blended [[Humekind]] remedies with [[Ruul’yun]] plant-lore he learned from a visiting apothecary he fell in love with. Their courtship was simple: trading seeds, recipes, and pressed flowers.{{Infobox saints and gods|name=Saint Reylon|image=Reylon.png|imagesize=260px|image_alt=Saint Reylon|image_caption=Painting of Saint Reylon|type=Saint|patron_of=Love & Herbalism|age=29 cycles|full_name=Reylon Treevale|triad=Triad of Hearth & Harvest|triad_image=TriadHearthHarvest.png|triad_imagesize=120px|triad_image_alt=Triad of Hearth & Harvest}}
One Harvest Festival, a Netherkind miasma rolled across the fields, choking the granaries where families had taken shelter. Reylon realized the fumes could be neutralized by a tincture of '''yarrow, sweetfern, and goldmoss'''—but only if its [[Light Energy|Light]] could be anchored to a living vow. He braided a '''garland''' from those sprigs (their shared token of betrothal), poured the tincture through it, and '''bound the ward to the love he bore''' '''for his beloved'''. The garland flared with warm Light, sealing doors and eaves, purifying the air until dawn. The village survived; the harvest was saved.
 
At sunrise the ward faded—and Reylon, having given the anchor of his life to sustain it, '''passed peacefully in''' '''his lover's arms'''. In the following muunds, Seers recorded cures and comforts from his notes, and the Church canonized him as '''Patron of Love & Herbalism'''. Couples still exchange '''“Reylon garlands”''' at autumn weddings; healers keep a '''mortar-and-garland''' emblem to remember that love, rightly tended, heals both field and heart.
