'''The Solemn''' ('''The Shadow-Clad Gentleman''', '''He-Who-Witnessed''', '''The Gravedigger''') is the Ninth Hour of the Fansus, created by [[User:Maltramac|Maltramac]]. His aspects are [[:Category:Winter (Vol. III)|Winter]] and [[:Category:Heart (Vol. III)|Heart]] in decreasing order of importance. The Solemn is a servant of [[The_Millions-Upon-Millions]] and his duty is intertwined with that of [[Abbess Sunset]]. [[Brother Grimalkin]] is his sibling, for they were both born from the same mother.
His tarot card is The Hermit. == Description ===== Appearance ===
Sometimes a black beetle, sometimes a pale-faced servant in formal wear, never talkative, always attentive.
=== Principles ===
Winter, for the endings at which he is present. Heart, for what he preserves. The Solemn One remembers. He is invoked in the desperate prayers of the dying and in the final breath, but he can offer no aid. When the Sun-Eyed Maiden arrives to guide the dead to where they must go, he follows in her steps. What belongs to the Omnipede, he brings to the Omnipede, but what he is permitted to keep, he buries and preserves. He is the patron of memorials and remembrances, of bittersweet partings and of everything that is lost.

'''The Fallen King''' was formerly a Name of [[The Weft]], a mortal king who ascended in her service. When his empire fell he came into the Gravedigger's service instead. The punishment for his defection was that his name, Ozymandias, was taken from him and now refers to Ramesses II instead. He appears as a dark-skinned, middle-aged man in golden robes, moving with slow, determined precision. He carries with him the tools of an architect, a builder and a king. His duty to the Solemn is building tombs, mausolea and monuments for the preservation of what has been kept.
'''The Silent End''' often takes the form of a mouse or bird when she is not a young woman in a white dress. The details of her appearance are different each time, but an unmistakable chill follows her. A patron of euthanasia and peaceful death, she leads Brother Grimalkin away, distracting him so that the end may come in peace, then returns to take one's final breath so that the Solemn may preserve it.
