The Theomach is one of the Insequent. His true name was Kenaustin Ardenol. In The Land's distant past, he traveled through time to gain knowledge of the Earth and the Earthpower. Once he collected it at all, he travelled to the Land and taught the meaning of the Seven Words, as well as much Lore to Berek Halfhand. When Berek travelled to the One Tree to make the Staff of Law, The Theomach came with him to challenge the Guardian. He defeated the Elohim, the Guardian of the One Tree, and became the One Tree's new Guardian. In doing so he was regarded as the greatest of his race, the wisest, the most powerful, and the only one to ever displace their rivals, the Elohim.
