	In 28 CR, Lincoln published his first novel, "Summer Over Silverslip". The novel was a coming of age story in which a veteran, Laurel Michaels, returns to [[Newfaire]] after finishing their term of service in the army and learns more about the larger world and its imperfect and grimy nature. The book didn't do well but earned Lincoln a small following of readers.		In 28 CR, Lincoln published his first novel, "Summer Over Silverslip".

The book didn't do well but earned Lincoln a small following of readers.

	Prior to the winter of 29 CR, Lincoln had lived a quiet, uneventful life as an aspiring author and the proprietor of Verbatim, a bookstore tucked into The Sidle. This tranquil existence was disrupted when he received a letter from his younger sister, Eleanor, who had married [[Thomas]] Abernathy and moved with him and their two children, Charlotte and Oliver, to the remote mining town of Dunhurst. Eleanor’s letter, laced with concern, pleaded for Lincoln’s help, as Thomas had begun behaving strangely.		Prior to the winter of 29 CR, Lincoln had lived a quiet, uneventful life as an aspiring author and the proprietor of Verbatim, a bookstore tucked into The Sidle. This tranquil existence was disrupted when he received a letter from his younger sister, Eleanor, who had married Thomas Abernathy and moved with him and their two children, Charlotte and Oliver, to the remote mining town of Dunhurst. Eleanor’s letter, laced with concern, pleaded for Lincoln’s help, as Thomas had begun behaving strangely.

	Upon arriving in Dunhurst, Lincoln discovered that Thomas, an esteemed engineer for the Blackstone Mineral Company, had fallen under the sway of an otherworldly power referred to as ''The Spark.'' The mine’s workers had unearthed something dark and terrible, and their manager, Heath Keers, led them in rituals to worship the entity. Over the course of a harrowing day, Lincoln uncovered the full extent of the cult’s corruption and the danger posed by the Cindermen—creatures of ash and flame created by the Spark’s influence. Fleeing the town with Eleanor and her children, Lincoln was forced to leave Thomas behind, as he had become consumed by the cult’s dark influence.

Fleeing the town with Eleanor and her children, Lincoln was forced to leave Thomas behind, as he had become consumed by the cult’s dark influence.

	Determined to save his brother-in-law, Lincoln immersed himself in the rare and arcane tomes hidden within Verbatim’s exclusive collection. In one ancient text, he found a ritual to forge a covenant with a nameless entity—a master of gates and keys. Desperate, Lincoln agreed to the covenant, receiving the entity’s power to confront the [[cult]] and seal the mine. Returning to Dunhurst, Lincoln defeated the remaining Cindermen and sealed the mine, but not before a final confrontation with Thomas, whose body and mind had been consumed by the Spark. Left with no other choice, Lincoln ended Thomas’s suffering and fled the burning ruins of Dunhurst.

	The aftermath of Dunhurst strained Lincoln’s relationship with Eleanor. Unable to confess that he had been the one to end her husband’s life, Lincoln carried this guilt as a heavy burden. To cope, he opened Verbatim to clients seeking assistance with supernatural predicaments, gaining a reputation as a reluctant but skilled occultist. Clients like Isabella Hawthorne, Samuel Whitewood, and Lucinda Vale came to him with their burdens, and Lincoln forged bonds with those who understood the costs of dabbling in the arcane.

	In 34 CR, Lincoln joined [~~https://quelmarwiki.com/wiki/Nesta_Archeron~~ Nesta Acheron], a fellow investigator with her own storied past, as she ventured into the Oldfairen ruins beneath Newfaire alongside Lula, Silas, and Piers to rescue Nesta’s missing sisters, Feyre and Elaine. The harrowing mission brought the group face-to-face with ancient dangers and a crystalline pillar that had taken the lives of several investigators. With the help of both Nesta and Silas, Lincoln banished the pillar to The Flare. The ritual was fraught with danger and as a result, he was freed with the compact with his master.

	A team of investigators from Candela Obscura, [https://quelmarwiki.com/wiki/Qandela_Obscura/The_Story_So_Far#Assignment_#1_-_01/18/25_%22Nothing_Left_but_Teeth_and_Bones...%22 dispatched to investigate the appearance of smoldering specters wandering around The Sidle], discovered that the explosion was caused by a group of men of unknown affiliation or intent. This information was gathered through a psychic vision by the investigator, Carmen Baxter. During this vision she saw Lincoln saw the culprits, one of whom was apprehended by the team of investigators while looking into the situation with the specters (eventually determined to be a being known as a revenant).

	In 28 CR, Lincoln published his first novel, "Summer Over Silverslip". The novel was a coming of age story in which a veteran, Laurel Michaels, returns to Newfaire after finishing their term of service in the army and learns more about the larger world and its imperfect and grimy nature. The book didn't do well but earned Lincoln a small following of readers.		In 28 CR, Lincoln published his first novel, "Summer Over Silverslip". The novel was a coming of age story in which a veteran, Laurel Michaels, returns to [[Newfaire]] after finishing their term of service in the army and learns more about the larger world and its imperfect and grimy nature. The book didn't do well but earned Lincoln a small following of readers.

	Prior to the winter of 29 CR, Lincoln had lived a quiet, uneventful life as an aspiring author and the proprietor of Verbatim, a bookstore tucked into The Sidle. This tranquil existence was disrupted when he received a letter from his younger sister, Eleanor, who had married Thomas Abernathy and moved with him and their two children, Charlotte and Oliver, to the remote mining town of Dunhurst. Eleanor’s letter, laced with concern, pleaded for Lincoln’s help, as Thomas had begun behaving strangely.		Prior to the winter of 29 CR, Lincoln had lived a quiet, uneventful life as an aspiring author and the proprietor of Verbatim, a bookstore tucked into The Sidle. This tranquil existence was disrupted when he received a letter from his younger sister, Eleanor, who had married [[Thomas]] Abernathy and moved with him and their two children, Charlotte and Oliver, to the remote mining town of Dunhurst. Eleanor’s letter, laced with concern, pleaded for Lincoln’s help, as Thomas had begun behaving strangely.

	Upon arriving in Dunhurst, Lincoln discovered that Thomas, an esteemed engineer for the Blackstone Mineral Company, had fallen under the sway of an otherworldly power referred to as ''The Spark.'' The mine’s workers had unearthed something dark and terrible, and their manager, Heath Keers, led them in rituals to worship the entity. Over the course of a harrowing day, Lincoln uncovered the full extent of the cult’s corruption and the danger posed by the Cindermen—creatures of ash and flame created by the Spark’s influence. Fleeing the town with Eleanor and her children, Lincoln was forced to leave Thomas behind, as he had become consumed by the cult’s dark influence.

Fleeing the town with Eleanor and her children, Lincoln was forced to leave Thomas behind, as he had become consumed by the cult’s dark influence.

	Determined to save his brother-in-law, Lincoln immersed himself in the rare and arcane tomes hidden within Verbatim’s exclusive collection. In one ancient text, he found a ritual to forge a covenant with a nameless entity—a master of gates and keys. Desperate, Lincoln agreed to the covenant, receiving the entity’s power to confront the cult and seal the mine. Returning to Dunhurst, Lincoln defeated the remaining Cindermen and sealed the mine, but not before a final confrontation with Thomas, whose body and mind had been consumed by the Spark. Left with no other choice, Lincoln ended Thomas’s suffering and fled the burning ruins of Dunhurst.

	The covenant with the nameless entity haunted Lincoln, binding him to serve as its agent. Tasked with ensuring that no unauthorized being passed through thinning boundaries between realms, Lincoln carried out his duties under the entity’s watchful eye, receiving instructions through cryptic means—most often a stray cat appearing at his doorstep.

	The aftermath of Dunhurst strained Lincoln’s relationship with Eleanor. Unable to confess that he had been the one to end her husband’s life, Lincoln carried this guilt as a heavy burden. To cope, he opened Verbatim to clients seeking assistance with supernatural predicaments, gaining a reputation as a reluctant but skilled occultist. Clients like Isabella Hawthorne, Samuel Whitewood, and Lucinda Vale came to him with their burdens, and Lincoln forged bonds with those who understood the costs of dabbling in the arcane.

	Years later, Lady Seraphina Ravenscroft of Candela Obscura noticed Lincoln’s talents and extended an invitation to join the Circle of Mind & Marrow. At first, Lincoln refused, unwilling to involve others in his struggles. However, his increasingly narrow escapes and the promise that Candela might help him sever his covenant with the nameless entity eventually compelled him to accept.

	In 34 CR, Lincoln joined [https://quelmarwiki.com/wiki/Nesta_Archeron Nesta Acheron], a fellow investigator with her own storied past, as she ventured into the Oldfairen ruins beneath Newfaire alongside Lula, Silas, and Piers to rescue Nesta’s missing sisters, Feyre and Elaine. The harrowing mission brought the group face-to-face with ancient dangers and a crystalline pillar that had taken the lives of several investigators. With the help of both Nesta and Silas, Lincoln banished the pillar to The Flare. The ritual was fraught with danger and as a result, he was freed with the compact with his master.

This information was gathered through a psychic vision by the investigator, [[Carmen Baxter]]. During this vision she saw Lincoln saw the culprits, one of whom was apprehended by the team of investigators while looking into the situation with a spectral entity comprised of fire wandering The Sidle that was eventually determined to be a being known as a revenant. The person that was apprehended, Nikoli Sorell, had been following Lincoln for months as evidenced by myriad entries into a journal he had on his person as well as additional items found when searching his home. The purpose of his surveillance of Lincoln and his daily activities remains unclear.

	One such item was a [[The Strange Journal\|leather bound journal]], written in a strange language. The journal was eventually decoded through the determined efforts of several investigators, including Persephone “Percy” Montgomery, Feyre Acheron and [[Mocking-Bird\|Mocking-bird]]. Once the journal was successfully decoded, it was discovered that Lincoln had been approaching by his old friend and fellow retired Candela Obscura investigator, Jasper Parson, to assist in an investigation to determine the cause of two Candela Obscura researchers, Caleb and Emily Zener. The status of the Zener twins remains unknown, but what is known is that Lincoln had discovered Jasper on the floor of the antique dealers living room, bleeding out.

	Jasper uttered, ''"Flasta nov mora…".'' Translated from the dead language, Vaelonic, "We've been betrayed...". This revelation told Lincoln that someone was operating within Candela Obscura. But he was unable to determine who had killed his old friend or if they were connected to the disappearance of the twins.		Jasper uttered, ''"Flasta nov mora…".''
