Wegadas would find several mates in his lifetime among the human tribe and be father to over a dozen children - half elven children. The last of his children and only daughter would be named Elaryness.

Shortly after the birth of his final child, nearly four centuries after establishing the Writ of the Wild and guiding his brethren through their newfound ways, Wegadas was old and weary and heard the distinct call of the forest - beckoning him to fulfill his own cylce of life. The old druid would pass into the wilderness forever at a site that would later become the most sacred site of the unkempt tribe.

Wegadas' body was not buries, nor was it touched by the wild creatures of the forest. He is said to have melded intothe earth, and from his reclaimed flesh and spirit, a great willow grew - the Weeping Willow of Tunare. The ancient tales of the human tribe would say that the willow was a gift to Wegadas' children and brethren from Tunare herself. As she reclaimed his old spirit, the Mother of All felt the great loss that the umkempt tribe suffered with Wegadas' passing and listened to their wordless prayer as they said their farewells to the beloved leader. In her appreciation for the human tribe's devotion to her and in honor of her missionary, Wegadas, she molded his spirit and essence into the great, beautiful willow that eternally weeps the tears of joy and sorrow of the tribe.

With her father's passing and the appearance of the great willow, Elaryness, the only daughter of Wegadas, would rightfully challenge four others - two of whom were her half-brothers- who had made the declaration for leadership in Wegadas' stead. The brutal, ceremonial battles would last days at a time, where those who vied for leadership would hunt one another throughout the whole expanse of the woods. Elaryness would destroy her challengers and the tribe, now beneath her rule, would move their bodies to the very location where Wegadas himself had laid to final rest. These brutal and oftentimes savage hunts (dictated by the hunters' primordial instincts) are law amongst the Unkempt Warders, for it is the law of the wild - the strongest lead whilst the weakest follow, though none are whole without the other.

Elaryness would be declared the first Hierophant of the Unkempt Warders. It was also Elaryness who would establish the Shrine of Tunare, in memory of her father and to fulfill the debt that she felt her entire tribe owed to the Mother of All for her gift of Wegadas, and the weeping willow.
