Chester Aggripson.
He wears a golden mask- hard to miss him sometimes.
... If he decides to show- but he doesn't do that all the time.
Well. There was a book I was considering adding to this pile- but I figured she was a writer- a little too similar to Aggripa.
I always felt it was... re-reading it, so to speak.
They both meet a 'Golden Mentor' wearing a gold mask.
Though her account doesn't start with her meeting the mentor in childhood like Aggripa does.
But- they both end, with very similar ideologies- both are pacifist, and both emphasize the use of patience in all things.

If they were contemporaries- it'd be possible for this to be a traveler that never wrote anything down for himself.
But... they are four hundred years, or so, apart.
Unless that is- there's somehow an order of men wearing Golden Masks that live entirely separate of society- and have quietly influenced everything.
Including the formation of secret societies stemming from Aggripa.
That- isn't the one responsible for the Red Winter though.
I don't know his name.
Though now that I know conclusively that there's definitely a man behind this one in particular...
Well.
I think I have an idea of what it could be, but it could still be wildly inaccurate.
