Malachi

Malachi is the son of Witchie and the host of Hurting Day. He is a young man who once had ambitious dreams of seeing every corner of the Lakes, but his unwilling parasitic relationship with Hurting Day has made him cynical and cold. Nevertheless, he is still an avid traveller, and is one of the few mortal humans to have met almost all of the regional gods.

Despite being tied to a wanted criminal, however, there is no bounty for Malachi. Most people interpret this to mean that the bounty is for liberating the bird from the boy rather than killing both, especially as Malachi has a close relationship with The Rapture, who set Hurting Day's bounty, as it is.
