"To you, I give the grain, the light and the sky. To you, a sacred heritage. To you, the land and sea."

So spoke G'Quan, at the dawn of all mornings.


G'Quan was a major Narn religious figure and prophet.

Living during the time of the First Shadow War, G'Quan led the Narn "Mind Walkers" against the Shadows who had set up a base on Narn.[1] In this struggle, G'Quan was supported by G'Lan, along with a number of other such beings.[2][3]

Most of what is known of him is through the Book of G'Quan, an apparently first-hand account of his life. The book describes a spirit of darkness that moved across the land, screaming in the dreams of the Mind Walkers and killing them and their families. Illustrations within the book may also indicate an encountered with a Soldier of Darkness.
